I remembered it because I bookmarked this place many many ages ago as a place I would want to continue checking in on. So when I come curiously sauntering through to see what has been done to this idea of old, and read this blog, I'm happy to find that it has grown into a lot more than just Books That Don't Suck. I don't like politics. I especially don't like American politics. But I really really like this, and hope Obama is everything that America needs him to be. Since as you've heart warmingly written, yes, it is needed. If I could vote for him, I would too. I remembered Books That Don’t Suck.

Watching <a href="http://elections.nytimes.com/2008/president/conventions/videos/20080828_OBAMA_SPEECH.html" rel="nofollow">Obama's acceptance speech</a> last night, he made the point beautifully: "Because one of the things that we have to change in our politics is the idea that people cannot disagree without challenging each other's character and patriotism." <i>That</i> is one of the many reasons I'm voting for this man. He <i>gets</i> it. (Text of his full speech is <a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=94087570" rel="nofollow">here,</a> if you haven't heard/read it yet.) Thanks, you guys.

Marty will have to think of his own present. Perhaps an choreographed interpretive robot dance. In all seriousness, this post was wonderful.

No, the present is not Shannon, but it maybe shortbread.
