Commencement Day at Wake Forest


What a beautiful day on the quad. Biden's talk was very enjoyable. Susan could see and hear the speaker clearly as she sat on the platform just a few rows behind the podium. This was not an ordinary Wake Forest podium, but rather a special armored podium with the Vice Presidential Seal on the front and a built-in teleprompter (it left when Joe left). For the record, Biden didn't rely too heavily on the teleprompter, and he was completely impromptu when he made comments about his friend, Tim Russert.

It's always amazing how quickly the trappings of graduation melt away from the campus. Now it's really summer. Time to start some serious walking.
