•Singing.  Organ playing.  Singing.  Not exactly “Boom Boom Pow”, either.  Shit’s kind of a downer.  Ted Kennedy would have had everyone taking shots by now.  RIP fun.

•Oh shit.  Seriously…I’m a sucker for “Ave Maria”.  It’s getting a little dusty in here; I think I got some sand in my eye.  Pardon me for a second.

•Did I see some tears in President Bush’s eyes?  Wow.

•This is a beautiful song.  I’m being serious now.  You can’t deny the power of “Ave Maria”.

•Sad Presidents.  It’s getting to be kind of touching.  I don’t have anything smart-assed to say right now.

•Ted Kennedy, Jr.:  Why is this guy not the politician?  Great speaker, great story, great charisma.

•After eight years, it’s kind of weird seeing Bush as just part of the crowd.  I’m not saying I’m not happy about it; it’s just weird.

•Ted Kennedy, Jr:  “Our family vacations left us injured and exhausted.”  He’s KILLING.

•Uh-oh.  Tears from Ted, Jr.  This isn’t easy to watch.

•Hey Massachusetts, there’s your next Senator.  There’s your Kennedy standard-bearer.  You could do a lot worse than Ted Kennedy, Jr.  Does he live in Mass?

•Tears from President Clinton.  Hillary is unflappable.

•Good luck trying to top that, everyone else.  Fantastic eulogy by Ted, Jr.

•Alright, the two brothers hugging kind of got me.  Standing ovation for Ted, Jr.

•Patrick’s turn.  It won’t be easy for him.  He’s pretty broken up.

•For a Congressman, Patrick is not a strong speaker.  You got a microphone, my man, you don’t have to yell.  You’re overmodulating, buddy.  I’m trying not to criticize, though.  I feel for the family.  They obviously loved the hell out of Ted.

•Okay, Patrick Kennedy is loud-talker guy.  I will say that and let it go.  He seems like the type of character that you’d find in a Seinfeld episode.

•He might be drunk, too.  Just saying.

•Still…not the best speaker, but a touching speech.

•President Obama is up.  It’s going to be tough for the President to outdo Ted, Jr.’s speech, but the President always delivers.

•President Bush needs a haircut.

•Obama is delivering.  I’m amazed at how gray his hair has gotten in 8 months.  The Presidency ages everybody, but Obama’s face has lines that it didn’t have during the campaign.

•Wow, that crowd is filled with Senators and former Senators of both parties.  That’s the biggest tribute to Ted Kennedy.

•I didn’t know that the Obamas got Bo from Ted Kennedy.  That’s really cool.

•Hell of a speech by the President.  Hard to rank, but Ted, Jr.’s pulled at the heartstrings more.  The President’s speech was a fitting tribute to a statesman.

•Cardinal O’Malley is finishing the Mass.

•The casket is leaving along with 50,000 Kennedys.

•Maybe we’ll pick up in Arlington for the burial, but I think I’ve had enough emotion for today.  I don’t like having real feelings.
