[Publib] Inaugural Watch

[Backwage at aol.com]

Okay now.  So it's the inaugural.  What about the old days when  the World 
Series was played in the middle of the week, in actual daytime, and  schools 
would let children watch on television (or, for Sue Kamm, listen on the  crystal 
radio).  Now that was important stuff.  Why would I want  to watch some guy 
walk down the street in D.C. in cold weather and give a  speech?  Without beer 
or peanuts.
 
I mean, what's happened to our priorities?  An African-American is  
president.  Big deal.  Hey, I voted for him.  Every year I vote  for dozens of 
African-Americans on the All-Star ballot.  That's  democracy.
 
Maybe they make a big deal out of this inauguration in Washington because  
the Senators (whoops, the Nationals) are so bad?  And because the  Republicans 
have been lousy for the restaurant business?  
 
[Does anybody remember what they used to say about the Washington team in  
olden days?  "First in war, first in peace, last in the American  League."]
 
Yours here for better television programming.  Even if I have never  owned 
one of them things.
