red and white, with a blue sock ;)

November 4th 2008 was the first time ever that I would have liked to be American, so I could have voted. Today I felt a tiny bit American as I watched the inauguration - something I've never done before.

I was surprised at how many of my students chose to watch it, too. On their own, in their houses, on their lunch hour. I don't think many of them grasped the history they were watching, but a few did.
