Indy and Harry

We're heavily into many things at our house, as is the case with many
houses. So here are the fruits of many hours spent with Harry Potter and
Indiana Jone...

The Indiana and the Illinois units came over the barricade north of the railroad and captured a gun. Private James S. Adkins of the 33rd Illinois, exhilarated by the bloodless victory, leaped astride the gun tube, waved his elbows up and down at his sides, and crowed like a rooster. Then, curious, he tugged at the lanyard. The gun went off, hurling a shell close over the heads of the units coming up in support, and bucking Adkins head over heels into the dirt. Miraculously, no one was hurt.

If Obama ever forsakes his cool remove and starts dishing up Glenn Beck histrionics, my last hope for the survival of rationality in politics will be gone. I'll shave my head.
I'm not a fan of the histrionics myself, but there is something to be said for taking the coolness to the other extreme. I've only heard the man riled up over politics which, unfortunately, is when he sounds the most authentic. He's got too much of a Michael Dukakis vibe going. Don't blubber like Beck, but do a bit more emoting so you don't sound like a stuffy college professor when you want to "kick someone's ass."
