Very first post....

So finally I have ventured into the world of blogging. Does that mean I am now keeping up with the Jones'? Have I succumbed to the pressure of the online world?

Truth be told.....none of the above......I figured if my old man can do it - so can I!!!!! How silly is that!!!!!! In all reality, I'm sure he will have a giggle to himself about it too. He'll be the one I call on for help......actually strike that - I'll enlist the help of my northern hemisphere friends who blog all the time hehehehehehehe :)

While I'm on the topic of my friends in the Northern Hemisphere, I have been watching the inauguration of President Obama. While I think this is an important step for the USA, is such a big deal always made when a new President takes office? I can only imagine the amount of money that has been spent on the day. Or could it be said that the events of today are more evident to me because President Obama is African American?

My dad always told me never to discuss Sex, Religion or Politics........so sorry Dad.....but I had to ask the question!

And so ends my first post........
