I admit I overdid it: I've got an Obama Inauguration wristwatch, an
Obama scarf and calendar. I also have been wearing my Obama pin for
many months even before the Election.  Now, when I turn on the TV I'm
blessed with too much of a good thing.

What bothers me most is my newly acquired plebeian taste in zeitgeisty
kitsch

We ought to be able to get that on the interweb by now, don't you think?...

Then again, I was all set to watch the Olympics on Beijing's own national
television stream, and about two days before the opening ceremonies they changed
all the URLs and I couldn't find CCTV again for months....r
