The President Is Coming! The President Is Coming!

I mean seriously. I had a Pultizer-Prize winning journalist whose speech was on par with the dull bore that is Clint Eastwood's 'acting skill' (sorry). PJ's class was entertained (and I use that term loosely) by the likes of our current Michigan governor attempting to rouse the crowd with her vapid cheers of 'USA! USA!'. And the 2010 graduating class of UofM will be treated this Saturday to a commencement address by none other than President Barack Obama? I. Am. Jealous.

My favorite little tidbit about Obama's arrival in my beloved A-squared? The return of Barack-y Road Gelato at Zingermans.

Side note: My husband has never forgiven me for dragging him (and I quote) 'kicking and screaming' to eat at Zingermans'. Apparently the luster of this famed deli is limited only to those with Wolverine hearts... and taste buds. (Sorry honey.)

If you'd like to read the full article about Ann Arbor's preparations for their presidential visit, please enjoy this newsworthy bit from AnnArbor.com.
