The powers that be have invited the entire staff to leave the office and go watch Obama's inauguration speech in a pub across the street. Wow.

I am sort of expecting him to come up to the podium and start laughing evilly as he hits the "Evil Robot Invasion" button.

EDIT: Actually, no I'm expecting a darn fine speech. :) *listens*

With as much hype as what's happening? Yeah, I'm totally getting the evil robot vibe.

It's not hype, it's a rare instance of mass public optimism. :) Optimism can come to nothing, but that's not the goal of feeling optimistic.
