Historic Times For America, Easton Jewelers

I was watching an episode of Family Feud on Channel 69 (the Lehigh Valley station) because it had two teams of celebrity impersonators facing each other. This sort of makes the “Family” part of the show’s name kind of moot; but the Bono impersonator was really good. Wow, who knew there were Bono impersonators?

Anyway, I kept Channel 69 on to watch their 10 o’clock news program, and it opened with Obama’s historic speech at his historic enormous podium, the largest ever for a candidate’s election-night victory speech. The anchor talked about how the election was historic for America… and then explained that another historic event was taking place in Easton, where a jewelry store was closing.

To be fair, the store is the oldest in America.

I also learned that Red Bull has a helicopter that can do loops and other tricks, and that if you tried to do those in a regular helicopter, you would die. Good to know.

Breaking (and blinding) news alert

And, apparently, the turnpike is stained blood red.
