I found that SOTU was watched by 20.4 million viewers, but find no total for the response.

Good Christ, I knew about the weird ear hair and nose hair and other weird shit that comes with age, but this increased sensitivity to stories is for the birds.

(11,802 posts)But I know it's coming. The whole easy to cry thing though. I usually don't cry. I get that almost cry, giant, uncomfortable, painful rock in the throat. And then two tears that makes my nose run for ten minutes. Apparently, I'm still holding on to my machismo.

Thank god for the Glenmorangie. It's the only think keeping me sane.

Abrams did okay, but still well below those numbers.(She did do slightly better than Trump on MSNBC, but much worse on Fox News -no surprise there.
