Today is Barack Obama’s 47th birthday. I have admired him since, prompted by an article in the FT two years ago, I read ‘The Audacity of Hope’.

I have never before been captivated by charisma or image in a politician, but there is something about Obama that I find uplifting, exciting and motivating. So I hope upon hope that he will be successful in November. Goodness knows after eight years of ‘W’ we all need it.

* fingers crossed

Data loss

This blog suffered a catastrophic loss of data at the end of 2009. I am restoring as many posts as possible as time allow, but comments are missing.
