5. I was in the gym last night watching Obama's speech
on the TV monitor attached to the Nordic track, and not a single one of the young people in the gym, most of them African-American, were watching the speech on their respective monitors. Their TVs were all tuned to some dance show and other dumbass crap. It was very disheartening. So much for "this is the moment," as Obama put it.
