fond farewell

She's no Etta James, but watching this brought me to tears (just like the first time). Here's hoping that Etta is finally able to rest in peace, and that Obama is able to recapture even just a fraction of the magic.

(And even after all this time -- I still can't believe he's our president.)

I'm just so in love with them. And that dress. Thanks for posting, Penny!

After 2016, presumably Barack will come back to be on facutly at the new Axelrod center at U. of C, right? Well, he might be Michelle's campaign manager for her to be POTUS 45.

In all of the news of Etta James, the most remarkable thing is her contention that her father may have been the professional pool player/hustler known as Minnesota Fats. How nuts is that.
