A friend and I were discussing a particular ex-member of the Cure, a band I very fond of. A few hours later, I walk into a restaurant/cafe and one of the servers there bore quite a resemblance to the keyboardist, albeit a somewhat younger version.

Presidential Candidate
Sen. Barack Obama or Sen. Hilary Clinton? This was the biggie in the news. The two contenders that were making the biggest news. I wasn't sure as my thoughts kept wavering. Obama, I thought, over Clinton. But his life will have to be very protected as there will be many people who would not want a black (African-American) president leading them ( Read more... ) -

NB. This was the original reason for what I thought was important about the 4th of April. But soon enough I realised it wasn't the same, even though the impact was very strong for a lot of other people ( Read more... )
