2. Oh wow!
A close relative works at BU and is in charge of setup for graduation there. (Has been doing it for 20+ years.) This is great. I was wondering if the Senator was going to give a speech this year. I am so happy for him. He should be honored at home!

Nice! My relative will be in charge of the setup rooms. I will ask him to get me an autograph. (He usually brings his kids with him to help put water under each chair. This will be nice for them as well.)

6. I really really miss seeing the rallies
Can't we just determine that the timing was a mistake, because because ... the Republicans lied too much and had fake reporters. And after considerable analysis of the amount of lying, we sould reset the clock to 1 month before voting. Correct all lies on both sides with required profuse appologies for each statement determined to be a lie. Then new debates or replay the old ones - Bush could choose.

Definely want to see the web cast. thanks for posting the link

And here: http://www.bumc.bu.edu/Dept/Content.aspx?DepartmentID=42&PageID=3506

Unfortunately, I don't think the med school commencement is going to be webcast. But I'm sure there will be some kind of clip up on NECN Sunday night.
