'Tis the Season...
...for giving. This blog post from NBC News is an update of a news story on an 82 year-old WWII veteran who is struggling this winter.

A Rare TV Moment
I've admitted in previous posts that I'm a TV junkie. I also admit that I watch enough crap to balance the really high-quality stuff. Below is a clip of a rare, poignant, and personal moment on late-night TV. Craig Ferguson, on his first day back from Scotland, discusses his mother's recent death. Have a few tissues on hand for this one.

Obama's First "Radio" Address
The President-Elect certainly isn't resting on his laurels. The Administration's new website also lays out the Agenda.
UPDATE: It seems that our most technologically-advanced President-Elect won't have access to his Blackberry. To put it mildly, that sucks. As someone who has recently become addicted to her smartphone (I have a Palm Centro), I can't imagine not being able to use it. Find out more information on this story in the NY Times article.

Withdrawal
I was a political news junkie for almost two years. Now that the election is over, I'm going through major withdrawal. Even NPR did a story about us. I used to come home late from campaign volunteering and I stayed up past midnight to read the latest blog posts on The Page and Swampland at Time.com, and The Caucus at NYTimes.com. I watched video clips from The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. I read through all of the postings on CNN's Political Ticker. I was hooked! I even read through the transcripts from The Newshour's David Brooks and Mark Shields news analysis segments. I went to work very tired but satisfied that I was fully informed for the day ahead.
Now, I'm a little bored by the every day news. Well, it's only 69 days until the Inauguration. I guess I can hold out until then.

Just a taste...
After I've had a little time to process my short involvement in the campaign, I'll write a longer blog post. For now, I'll leave you with this clip.
Look closely. I think Stephen Colbert is tearing up.
