Michelle Obama Speech At The 2008 DNC Convention

What a good way to celebrate the last hours of my birthday than to see a beautiful, educated sister speak her mind about her life, husband and how he may bring about change. I don't care if you're black, white, red, yellow, brown or whatever shade-- if you've lived in the ghetto, or off in the cut (someplace in an undesirable area for those that aren't into slang) then you know what Mrs. Obama meant when she said "For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country." She didn't mean that she hates it here, she was just disappointed all those times. Hell I'm still disappointed on an almost daily basis when it comes to being an American, because I know our true potential and we aren't living anywhere close to it.

I am proud to be here and to be born into my culture; I've been to other places in the world and no one quite does it like we do it here. But there is room for improvement, and room for change. I truly believe we have had an 8 year backslide and now it's time to clean that mess up, restore our honor and remove the tarnish from our name.

Treo PRO!!!

3 words...

I WANT ONE!!

I've owned a Treo ever since the first one came out in 2000. It was a HUGE Treo 300. 8 years and 3 models later there have been lots of changes... My current Treo 700 doesn't run Palm OS, it runs Windows Mobile 6 (well it came with 5.0, but I hacked the firmware a few months ago to run 6) Its a little bit smaller, a whole lot faster, and does more than even the PC I had in 2000.

When I bought that first smartphone, only techno-nerds like me would be caught dead with one... Now if you don't have something that can jump on You-Tube, browse eBay, take pictures and videos, and play MP3s... Oh and take phone calls too, you're officially out of the "electronicly trendy in-club". How do you like that, I've actually gotten in on the beginning of something trendy and cool... Unlike that time I tried to start a new trend by cutting my hair into a "Hi-top-triangle" back in 1988... Yeah those were the days.

So I guess this will be the next chapter in my treo book.
