Where were you, and what were you doing when the next American President was elected on Nov 4th 2008?

    Stayed up until the wee hours of the morning, plonked in front of my computer screen at home.

    Still at the polls... It was declared that he won, and Alaska's election sites hadn't even closed yet, as usual!

    I went to Cabela's last night. Stocked up on ammunition, hehe.

    Just kidding. I did go to Cabela's last night, but I didn't buy anymore ammunition. I'm already well stocked.

    Asleep. I stayed up long enough to see 180 votes to 81, so the winner was obvious.

    Tucked in bed with the lights off and the remote in my hand; all was right with the world.

    I was on the can dropping some logs, and later realized that the butt paper roll was fresh out. I had to dodge across the house under windows to reach another restroom hosting a fresh new roll.

    Was in bed crying and smiling for joy! Obama is young enough and hopefully will be able to handle his own better as a front man for running our country. I think because of the mile stone he has created he will try harder then most others to prove what a wonderful job he can do and I am looking forward to hopefully see many positive changes. I've heard wonderful things about his wife as well.

    On a bus on the way home. Someone announced, "He did it! My mother just phoned me and sadi that Obama won!"

    The atmosphere was electric. And some broke out in joy and even wept in an effort to take in the reality.
