The Dean Scream



It's kinda interesting how you can barely even hear the scream.

In other news, I watched the entirety of Obama's speech on race.  It was... a good speech.  It addressed the race issue quite well, and it was definitely finely crafted.  He tackled an issue head-on, and he didn't dump Wright, both actions that I approve of.  Apparently, he wrote it himself, so kudos to him for that too.

Maybe I'm just not drinking enough kool-aid, but while I think this is a great speech, and probably will go down in history, I'm not sure where the ZOMGSHIVERSDOWNMYSPINE sentiments are coming from.  It's not a shivers-down-your-spine sort of speech.  It's the type of speech that gets you thinking, reflecting, and ideally agreeing.  No shivers involved.
