  So this came in late but i think the Obama frenzy is still in the air so these thoughts that have been brewed in an African pot can still be sipped..... I dunno about other countries but, has anyone here in Ghana noticed how different the weather was on Wednesday morning? It was so damn foggy! Which was unexpected to say the least. When I was in SSS,the first Saturday after freshers came in to school was very cold and foggy. I never understood that phenomenon until Obama won the elections. I have now come up with a theory: that when people share a similar feeling, are in a similar mood or perform similar activity or inactivity, the weather changes. In this case the sudden general feeling of either anxiety or excitement may have triggered the foggy weather on Wednesday and the first Saturday after freshers entry in SSS. Obama injected so much energy into the atmosphere that everyone was just waiting to break free and exploit that energy. When the moment came, so did the fog. Remember I mentioned inactivity? Have you wondered why Sundays are mostly sunny, bright and clear? This might be because a great percentage of the workforce rest and there's general inactivity in the nation(acknowledgement: Maia Hubbard)... INACTIVITY! It's a fact, that activities of living beings affect the weather so these are very valid observations................br /br /So Barrack Obama, Mr. President. The man who's gonna change America and eventually the world. He has certainly challenged the Americans to show to the world that America has really developed mentally and they stood up to that challenge. Now his first four year in office can only be filled with the change he so promised; it'll also be filled with tough decisions, hatred, predicaments, attempted assassinations(I hope not) and so on and so forth. What I hope not to happen is that his own race turn against him when he starts making those decisions that may seemingly not support the black community. What would even be worse is if the young blacks take advantage of their new black president-elect's position to act the fool. Race is not law: the law is law.........br /br /Anyway I don't mean to speak vile or cynically. I'm proud of the Americans, I'm proud of Obama - the only man who put out there enough energy to change even the weather. This is true power, where it is manifested to change the emotions of men and consequently the firmaments. Obama, you better go see your Grand mama in Kenya and all them lil cousins and nephews you got there. They prayed for you a heavens lot.div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7768057510946169193-2039616980965046983?l=kobeasiedu.blogspot.com'//div
