"Obama, Yey, Yey, Yey"

"Your victory has demonstrated that no person... should not dare to dream of wanting to change the world for a better place"
- Nelson Mandela

Kenya has declared a national holiday of celebration.

I went to 4 different stores today to try to buy extra commemorative copies of the Washington Post and the New York Times. All stores were completely sold-out.

Here's a sweet sweet track from Extra Golden, a Kenya/US band collaborative. I've been blasting this song all day! It was written to thank some Illinois Senator help them clear their final tourist visa hurdles so they could come perform and record in the US in 2006.
