Hey all! Was just in the hospital for a week, two days of that unconscious with a skull fracture and blood leaking out of my head (not the cool part, and FWIW I seem to be on course for a somewhat miraculous full recovery). After I came to, a bunch of family came by to check on me, including my uncle, who works for the DEA.

He's got a few pals in the Secret Service and was telling me how Michelle insisted on sitting all of them all down and cooking them Thanksgiving dinner.

I dunno, for whatever reason it moved me.

That's it. I know it's not much, but still thought it was cool.



As a totally separate issue, if you visit someone in the hospital, bring them a big box of really good candy. Not for the person in the hospital (I only had one or two pieces), but for the nurses. You will not go wrong here.

Michele > Jackie Kennedy?

Considering the Jackie-O stories I've heard, not a stretch. Though it likely says more about Jackie than Michele.

Obama plays it cool.

Glad that you're out of the hospital okay!

And how many so called objective reporters were watching.
