Oh, no, it's the "R" word! Currently heard and seen everywhere. Call it what you will -- recession, slump, downturn, it has everybody edgy and fearing the worst.

Is there a message here? Never quit. Everyone has problems. But recessions don't kill anyone. Do something spectacular.

I go through my dream journal at the end of the year and re-read everything I wrote down. I take the most interesting or funny or poignant bits, and make resolutions out of them.

Surprisingly, neither of the two taxi drivers I asked to take me to the pyramids understood my destination -- despite the fact that I would think these large stone edifices are a mainstay of Cairo tourism.

Sure, we'd all love to have a book published. But few of us really want to expend the energy. And even fewer are lucky enough to have afflatus!

I highly recommend the following article by Corinne McLaughlin and Gordon Davidson, which takes an in-depth look at the subtler dimensions of Obama's leadership.

The strange timing of Obama's grandmother's death underlines what a grandmother's love is really meant to do; which is to prepare a child for a world that she may never lay eyes on.

To win, Obama needed a movement. The same will be true in order to enact Obama's agenda for change in the months ahead.

I wish everyone who couldn't be bothered to even register could see that lady in the wheelchair's courage in the face of adversity. I vow to remember her whenever I feel like complaining about a long day.

I can attest to the effectiveness of Obama's message because my political involvement is a product of his candidacy. Republican mockery is not an equal response. Citizen involvement is a victory for the country.

Hillary is passionate and a force for good in our time. That is precisely why she will rise from this moment to help forge a unified band of democrats to elect Senator Obama.
