Per the request of you, the reader: I will be blogging live tonight at 6:45 Pacific Time through the end of McCain’s speech.
Unlike Johnny Cash… bring your guns to town.
Welcome to the second installment of live blogging. The first, of course, being the 2006 Miss America pageant. It was fun, and I’m sure this occasion will be no different.
The best channel to watch this on in order to avoid unwanted remarks is definitely C-SPAN, which you can actually watch live on the web.
I’ll try to keep it light and fun… maybe…
7:50 - I got the mouse in my right hand, and a Diet Dr. Pepper in the left… let’s get this show on the road.
7:59 - The First Lady just walked in… I love her.
8:02 - Fun Fact: There is a gas mask underneath every seat on the floor of the House. (Stupid teenagers think it’s funny to pick them up when you take them on tours of the Capitol… and then we yell at them)
So, this is my first venture into live blogging. Hopefully it will go off without a hitch, and we can do it again sometime.
If any of you have anything you would like to add, hit me up on AIM, username: bamassippi.
Hit refresh every 5-7 minutes… and hopefully I’ll have some type of inciteful or snarky comment.
Take a peek at my favorites, which may change over the vourse of the night. I feel very good about Miss DC as-well-as Miss Cali… but you never know. Last year, airheaded Miss Louisana was first runner-up.

I’ll post my Top 10 before they post theirs. I’m exceptionally good at this, but Miss America is judged my celebrities with and agenda and/or little-to-no knowledge of how to score. You’ve been warned.
That said, let the games begin…
7:00 - I’ll have to admit… that little intro was pretty good.
7:02 - Miss Alaska likes to smile…
7:03 - Miss Idaho loves eye shadow…
