I have a friend who happens to be very good at basketball. The other day he joined his workplace basketball team and played his first game with them. He shot around 7-8 from three point land and scored around 30 points in the game. He said the next day at work, and every subsequent day, his coworkers were unusually warm and friendly to him. They offered him praise, told him jokes, and showered him in smiles and compliments. Of course, he attributes this to the fact that his coworkers were now aware of his athletic prowess.
We both noted that it was odd that the world worked like this.
This is exactly what I was thinking when I ran into this Obama video over on John Deeth's blog. A lot of people have probably already seen this clip, but it was new to me so I wanted to pass it on. McCain's a good guy, but you almost start feeling sorry for him when you see stuff like this. Obama is scary good.
Especially note the soldiers' unbridled enthusiasm for the man who could be their next commander-in-chief.
