Yes, everybody lost their shit here too, screaming, crying, bursting into improvised hip-hop jams: "O-BA-ma is the PRES-i-dent! (Clap, clap, clap-clap-clap!)" <BR/><BR/>Everyone took the streets, and just ran around dancing and yelling for hours. Maybe even better than the wildness was the awed silence and tears during Obama's speech. I heart the jumbotron!Lolonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7023785422091414496.post-62005047068230866432008-11-05T16:35:00.000-08:002008-11-05T16:35:00.000-08:00It was continuous honking all last night - you could hear it coming up Broadway from downtown all the way to West MacArthur! Punctuated by the occasional celebratory gun shot (usually reserved strictly for NYE). Ferdinand - being in favor of strict gun control (yes, Virginians - Ferdie WOULD take your guns away) always growls when shots are fired on NYE, but he must have sensed the enormity of the occasion - not a growl!Gruellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15651674403436840398noreply@blogger.com
