“Children running through the streets…”
Last night was an experience of a generation. Never before have I seen or felt the electricity that struck at a little after 11pm est last night. At first we heard yelps from outside, individuals cheering. Quickly yelps turned into children running through the streets. Thats right, when could you ever have said that in my lifetime (almost 30 years)?
There were children running through the streets excited about our new president. Later we heard what sounded like crowds cheering. And even people riding on top of cars, honking horns, driving down West End Avenue. It was truely remakable!
So now maybe, just maybe, ther can be some sort of redemption or vindication for the last 8 years of failed policy and failed diplomacy.
disclaimer: the city was THAT excited once that I can remember but that was when the Rangers won the Stanley Cup in 1994. Sporting events dont count.
