This is the first time in how many years a black man is the most powerful man in the world?

One thousand?
Two thousand?

Do we have to go all the way back to the Sudanese Pharaohs?

Just thinking about that on the ride home today.

It's nice to see the order of things thoroughly shaken up once in a while. :D

2. Speaking of heads exploding ...

I had an inkling, earlier today, to put on my super-mondo-IP-masker-re-router-munger-thingy and slap in a spare root hard drive I use for trapping malware and go a'posting on some select forums that little factoid about the most powerful man in the world right now.

It passed. Not enough brain bleach in my cabinet to disinfect.

But it was a fun thought. :)

3. he's half black, half white

just like bob marley

4. When are we going to have a most powerful WOMAN in the world?

In my lifetime, I hope.
