So watching C-SPAN with Joe is like watching NASCAR with my brother, Jason. I am not a NASCAR fan, don't really get watching the cars drive around and around in circles. The blowouts are cool and I shudder when cars collide for fear that someone will really get hurt but those instances are few and I can't really do anything but sleep for 4 hours straight at a time. However, when I watch NASCAR with my brother it's cool. He explains why a driver took a pit at that time and what they have to do to stay in first, why another driver is changing lanes, and how that blowout affects the race.
So there is a TV in the office to watch C-SPAN. I have (big surprise) never been a fan of C-SPAN. But watching C-SPAN with Joe is like watching NASCAR with my brother. I can ask him why they're arguing, he explains the different rules and procedures for amendments and votes, we laugh when the Senate President has to call the Senate to order 4 times before everyone is quiet. And I have to admit, that last week when Joe was out of the office and the stimulus bill was being debated in the Senate... that I watched C-SPAN... by myself.

I must confess I watched CSPAN on call the other night to see what happened at the health care summit, addicting isn't it?
