Have to pass comment on Obama's historic win. I ducked into the local Irish pub - Molly Maguires - for a quick snort just as McCain conceded defeat (just after 3pm here). There was an air of total amazement in there: the people I spoke to all felt the same as me - great result but we didn't honestly expect to see it in our lifetimes.
I suspect this counts as one of those "historic moments" such as the Apollo XI landing, World Trade Centre attacks or Malcolm Blight's 80m goal after the siren to win the 1976 Grand Final for North Melbourne... so I marked the occasion with a photo: this taken just as McCain concedes and we realise history has been made. You can't see me very well but the beer is nicely exposed. For the record it was a James Squire Amber Ale, not particularly Irish I suppose but a very nice brew.
