Based on my recollection of the campaign, here are some expectations of Obama's first 100 days.

  • Troops out of Iraq
  • US friends with all other countries
  • Close the Gitmo terrorist holding facility
  • Government paid mortgages and free gasoline (according to Peggy Joseph)
  • Focus on war in Afganistan
  • Increase transparency and accountability in Washington
  • Eliminate America's use of coal
  • Stop Earth's temperature from rising
  • Kill Bin Laden
  • End partisanship in Washington
  • Stop oceans from rising
  • Lower unemployment
  • Increase value of investments (i.e stock market)
  • Lower taxes

Day 71. Off to see the queen

From this aticle...

...
British etiquette says "you may not shake the queen's hand, only tough it briefly" and that if the Queen stops eating then everyone else must stop too, the News reported.
...

Not sure what it means to 'tough' the queen's hand. Hopefully the teleprompter will provide all the other etiquette tips.

I wonder what gifts they're taking. Maybe a clapper?
