I want to know if you can live with failure, yours & mine, & still stand on the edge of the lake & shout to silver of the full moon "Yes!"
It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up, after the night of grief & despair, bruised & weary to the bone, & do what needs to be done to feed the children.
It doesn't interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me & not shrink back.

i believe that barack can & he will....
as i type this post, south park is on- they already have a president-elect obama episode- that was so quick.....
& what are the thoughts on michelle's dress tuesday night- i give it a thumbs down- it didn't work for me.
& today i included purple in my attire for this day- there was something about the whole thing that felt rather regal.
after all, as stephen colbert said- i never thought i'd live to see the day- we have elected our first president from hawaii!
well time for bed- please send me energy that i will arise early enough to keep my 7am appointment with my trainer to work out-

Dear Mr. Barrack Obama,
President Elecet:
I, too, m' happy and proud you will be our next Commander and Chief. But, Mr. President, first things first!
Before you gather your Cabinet and attempt to put-right two wars run amuck, an economy slinding into the dark abyss of depression (could you please send those Wall Street dusch-bags to a real prison), an ever increasing belligerent North Korea and Iran, the World, et. all (even the Russians are acting up) - could you please ask the City when They're going to gravel my damned service road?
The condition of that road is egregoious, an outright outrage. Hookers sprain there ankles and the crack dealers, well they complain that pot-holes damage Escalade rims and hamper their aim when attempting to fire from a moving vehicle. And let's not forget about thee vagrants that wonder around back there. It's impossible for them to find a dry plot to erect a pasteboard shelter.
Please send help soon or there may be a few less middle-class to help you "spread the wealth". In the mean time, we'll keep our dogs barking and retun fire when necessary.
Take It easy
Danny
you're my president, baby- barack is not even in the running! im glad you have your priorities straight & are getting down to the important bidness....
