Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

I'm juiced as hell that Obama won, and he deserves all the goodwill that he's received. Nobody in generations has hyped people up more than he has, and that kind of hope is an awesome sight to behold. But lets not jump the gun and expect him to fix our economy and the world's, stabilize Iraq, unite the government, heal racial divides, repair the U.S.'s image in the international community, create affordable health care, lower educational costs, walk on water and start doing backwards wheelies before he's even been inaugurated. When this much is expected of him, there's going to be nowhere to go but down if he doesn't live up to some unreal expectations. It's good to be enthusiastic, but lets temper it with a bit of reality. Change isn't going to happen this year and probably not next year either. There's too much happening for it all to be affected at once. I'm not hoping for Obama to make the boat fly, I just want him to stop it from sinking.

I'm definitely realistic. I'm just so happy that there's at least a chance of some good happening now.

Voting based on race, regardless of how well intentioned it is ..... fail. Obama is mixed.. I wish I'd heard more of that during the election, as opposed to hearing how black he is. Glad he's in though, let's see if he can pull it off now... he's got an uphill battle ahead of him.
