Election Night November 4th, 2008


The first word of Obama's win!!!!!


The New First Family....


Mandy and Mick celebrate Obama's win with a few glasses of wine


Akleema does her little dance for victory.


Justus gave the thumps up, while Jenifer can't get off her phone long enough to realize what's just happened.


These two cowboys had a little too much beer.....


As we sat in our home that night, we heard people yelling and honking horns on Lyndale Ave. So we left the house to investigate and found hundreds of people in the streets cheering and holding signs!!!!


Our Favorite Bartender at the Tower...."The usual Erik and Akleema?"


Akleema’s usual, the classic Gin and Tonic from Leaning Tower of Pizza.
/begin Erik’s sarcasm (and the rolling of the eyes from Akleema)/
Akleema stated that it tasted better because of the welfare program. Under this new program everyone has a ration of 3 gin-n- tonics a month....thanks Obama!!!!
/end Erik’s sarcasm (still rolling my eyes though)



A cold glass of Stella....even our beer has turned unamerican!


So, we drunk ordered wings..even though we just sat around for hours eating (duh at the Tower, must order wings). Then of course dived into them before we could take a 'nice' picture. Tower has the best Buffalo wings, we ordered BBQ and Buffalo. Delicious!


Can you get on your horse, Cowboy?


Ahh I think these two voted...have another you drunk bastards.



It was a wonderful night, everyone was so jubiliant. While we were at the Tower I was looking toward the windows and saw two white figures running around. STREAKERS! Awesome! I read later that they were stopped by the Police and fined. Kudos to the two dudes that were running around naked on Lyndale!

How could you be jubiliant after you recieved news that Obama got elected? It was a horrible night when I found out, my whole team went into a depression for at least a week, and most of the Marine Corps... You know I'll be out of a job soon now. I hope you are happy.

Alex, we were happy becuase with any luck our country will think before entering into a war they had no business starting. You'll be just fine...the world needs Marines. Happy Birthday by the way...
