Ted Kennedy Jr.......

What an elegant speaker and what a touching eulogy he gave to his Dad.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

My satellite signale went out during a lot of Patrick's eulogy and almost all of Obama's.

Ted Jr. was simply the best speaker of the whole two occasions--last night's "wake" and today's Mass.

Seems like the best and the brightest of Generation 3 never went into politics--John Jr, Caroline, and Ted Jr. We were left with Joe III, Patrick, and Kathleeen Townsend.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

I listened to much of the service this morning on the radio, and it was quite touching.

Everything is better on the rocks.
