Today was a huge day. Just got done watching DVRed history, as Mr. President-Elect Obama became the 44th dude to wear the incredibly tight pants of the Presidency. Was some great oratory, and I highly recommend you check it out if you haven’t. In reviewing the speech, and the incessant babble of the pundits and talking heads to follow, I am brightened, excited, and looking forward to doing my part to take responsibility in the coming years.

I have long thought exactly this: America is drowning. America is tarnished. America is a piss poor shadow of its former glory, effortlessly slipping into obscurity through the simple process of evolution and entropy. Look at the kids coming up behind us. Whiny, spoiled, senseless, selfish, stupid, swollen, over-indulged and under-educated… They are a perfect reflection of ourselves, aren’t they?

Well no they fucking aren’t.

We will, eventually, receive the country, life, and experience we deserve. For too long I have lazed about, procrastinating projects, snoozing deadlines, and generally just floating through my life. What concertos have I written? What books, for that matter? What the hell am I doing with all my time, besides working to put a roof on my family’s food and delivering, with my good friends Mickey, J and Ross, the greatest internet radio show, ever?

Whether it’s the cold weather, or the smell of beef stew coming from the other room, or the promise of after-blog in my wife’s eyes, or the President’s speech today… I am ready to assume the mantle of American, Husband, Father, Host, Friend, Citizen, and Responsible Entity with Male Parts.

And to celebrate that, we should go fishing. I am not sure how exactly this will work, as we have ruled out party boats and the average charter boat seats six if you are lucky, but we’ll work on it. I am just happy to have hands that can type, eyes that can read, and a heart and mind ready to undertake something of consequence.

I’m gonna plant a vegetable garden. Or volunteer my time. Or actually learn more than 4 chords on the guitar. Or maybe I will simply remember to love the ones I am with, work at my job with relish, because a man should love what he does, seek to enlighten and brighten others’ in their efforts, and remember that this country is boundless with possibilities, if we all put our minds to it.

At the very least, I am gonna go listen back to this hour while I do something useful. Thanks for listening!

In this hour, we discussed the fishing trip, my difficulty with ties, vick’s vaporub, backstabbers at work, and old movies (sorta!)
