On the elliptical after a strenuous ten minutes of working out, the State of Union by President Obama began. I fumbled with my headphones to put them in the electronic radio that 24 Hours Fitness provides so that you can hear what being said on television in front of you. I put in my headphones and tried to turn up the volume, but as kept pushing up on the volume control panel, it wasn't working! Frustrated, I put my headphones back into my iTouch and listened to my music while working out. Yet, at the same time, I turn my neck to the left to watch the State of Union by President Obama that had closed captioned. He was already five minutes into his speech and my neck started to feel straining from the unusual position of watching and working out. Oh, the things we do just to listen to the most powerful man in the world! Nevertheless, I need to know what President Obama was saying since regardless of what other people think, I think it has a profound affect on our lives whether you believe it or not. 

Like I said, you come up with your own interpretation. On this one, I'm stuck in the middle.
