    Must say...

    Ft. Greene was insane last night--hollers of joy in the street till the early mornings. Someone joked to me that she was ready to get her rioting on, while I pulled out my lighter and said "How hard is it to overturn a car? That Mini over there can't be too heavy." But besides bad humor, there was no crazy behavior--just a lot of happy, happy people. So many hugs with strangers, toasts in the streets, and high fives from people sailing by in honking cars.

    It was one of the most amazing nights of my life--once disbelief settled into joy, I couldn't imagine being anywhere else.
