OH! And could we have done more to bring the whole thing to a screeching halt than to have Guv Henry's presentation?

BOk got some colored floods but I think was overall too far north to be clearly visible as part of the show.

Well, I can't think of a g-rated way to finsih that sentence that would fit.

Friggin insane the number of people. I ate dinner at CAz's Chowhouse and got out about the time the show was starting. The big fireworks were going off over the railroad tracks. If I'd been any closer they might've blown my pants off. I watched the rest from 9th and elgin plus tivo'ed it.

To see that kinda effort put into the choreography. not just big flashes in time with the music, but fireworks hanging on in time with individual notes. Amazing.



Scary! We were also at CAz's Chowhouse before the event. Lucky enough we found a parking spot and able to find a parking spot and walked to the event. I hate to say this, but I was not completely overwhelmed by it. It was nice, and it was cool and all, but nothing that blew me out of the water. Some of the video work was kind of cheesy, and how they expected people to sing along was kind of hokey. I have to say that singing along to OKLAHOMA! Was good, but then a sing-a-long to some song that most people never heard of...eh. But I'm glad that a lot of people had a good time.

Stunning photograph! Do you have a large version. Don't worry, I'm not gonna take credit or anything, but I'd like to set that as my desktop background with your permission.

AMEN!
Even if you like the guy, you have to admit he is a boring speaker. He is like Al Gore times about 100 as far as lack of enthusiasm goes.
