Film and the waiting
We’ve just finished the campaign film, although it seems like there’s a
second one on. It seems like we might be a bit ahead of the
schedule for the night, and we have these odd, unscripted moments where
we wait expectantly. The crowd goes a bit wild, and starts to
chant.
All the bloggers seem to be trying to do continuous coverage right now,
and I imagine that will settle down as the speeches start. We’ve
got The Speech already, but I haven’t read it yet. Reading along
with it during the delivery makes it pretty intelligible up here.
Everyone just gave Kerry’s crewmates the standing ovation, and there’s
a palpable feeling of respect in the whole hall for these men.
