So today, Eddy excitedly told me on AIM that a presidential forum was taking place on TV. I immediately went to my tv and flipped my 7 channels trying to see if any station was broadcasting, none were. I had to go to MSNBC.com to get the live feed.

Let me tell you now, it was the boring-ist discussion i've ever watched. The questions were so in-intrustive, vague, and just plain stupid. The entire discussion was centered on volunteer work, and how Americans should volunteer more. Both candidates gave generic answers, both of which were strikingly similar.

The funny thing though, was that the live feed broadcasted the noise from the microphones no matter the instance. Some interesting things I picked up with the unknown mics and just funny quotes:
----------
Host: "Hey, step out a little so we can have a single shot of you"
*Obama walks toward the middle of the stage alone and waves*

McCain: *SNOREEEEEEEEE*

Obama: "We need to mobilize the seniors"
