A dream come true...

I heard the full audio of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech this morning on my way to work. (Yes, I have to work on MLK Jr. Day.) I wonder if Dr. King ever imagined that a black man would become the president of the United States of America forty-six years after this speech was delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial...



And here's a video of U2 performing "Pride (In The Name Of Love)" and "City of Blinding Lights" yesterday, also on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.



This is a beautiful week...

Here's the blog entry:

"A Win-Win On Same-Sex Marriage"

Enjoy!
