At 12:06pm EST We Have A New President: Barack Obama

Ladies and gentlemen, we now have a new president of the US.

President Barack H. Obama

Let the real work begin. Be the change you wish to see in the world. Remember to follow what our elected polititians are doing and rememeber to nudge them in the right direction.

Later, I will add the speech. For me, these 2 quotes were the highlights:

“Your people will remember what you build, not what you destroy.”

“We are willing to extend our hand if you are willing to unclunch your fist.”

Simply amazing.

Oh and be sure to check out the Flickr pool as well. Nice shots of everything inaugraul.

Tomorrow is the day… I start my blog anew!!

I will be posting again (at least once every 2 days, defiantly 3 times a week at least) on what’s I like in tech and fashion, trends, and what it really is to be grown and sexy… and that means ALSO being (at the very least aware of) professional and being political.

Yeah that’s right I said it. You have to get down and dirty sometimes for the better-ment of your community and for your own personal welbeing.

Why?

Well, I’ll go into that later. My main point is that my blog will re-open tomorrow for the inaugural of the 44 president.

I welcome everyone to my blog and hope you get more out of it than I do (and that’s saying allot cause I plan on getting allot out of writing here)

See you tomorrow!

Cheers!!!
