QUOTE OF THE DAY
"The key to being a wonderful writer is not to write. You just get out of
the way. Leave room for God to walk in the room. And when I write
something that I know is right, I get on my knees and say thank you."

Oh I will never forget that Grammy night. Michael kept coming up to receive award after award. He was shy, humble, & cute. There was so much excitement & the next day everyone was talking about his wins. Those were the good old times, when most of us had to get up to turn the knob on the tv to change channels. Of course, no one was changing the channel that night!!!

Yes, seeing it at the time it happened is more climatic, because you do not have a prior experience of something like that happening, so you are more excited, mesmerized. When you see it now, you already have experiences of seeing "great moments in entertainment" so you do not get the same "waw" effect.
