1. The Constitution says January 3rd.

...but I keep hearing the 4th. I think tomorrow is the ceremonial opening, and the real business starts on the 4th.

2. I'm looking forward

to this...I loved it when Jeffords split ranks and threw the senate to us-that really pissed them off and ended up costing Daschle his job-they spent $100 per person in that state to unseat him-bastards that they are and all

3. Bernie Sanders is being sworn in on the 4th. His staff invited me to the reception!

Of course, I don't really have the money to go and also have a doctor's appt. that day in Huntsville, Alabama, but otherwise....
