Running In Phase

A trend that I've noticed of late is

Big names seem to be passing on at relatively high frequency of late.



MJ, Farah Fawcett, Yasmin, and now Sir Bobby. They share one thing in common in their deaths.

They all died due to a medical condition.

MJ - suspected drug abuse leading to cardiac arrest
Farah Fawcett - Anal cancer
Yasmin - stroke and hemorrhaging
Sir Bobby Robson - several cancers, the decisive one being lung cancer.






While its tragic that all these influential people had to pass on, one can't help but wonder











Who's next?

Change?

As I'm typing this now, its 1.18am and Barack Hussein Obama is giving his introductory speech, acknowledging the daunting task that the US face right in their face, in the midst of economic turmoil as well as political and diplomatic strains with certain parties. And calls for Americans to rise up to the challenge. At any rate, the American Dream is realised at this moment. The desire for a free America. One in which men will be judged "not by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character". Culminating with his ascension to the post of Commander-In-Chief. The "I have a dream" speech, originally crafted and expressed by Martin Luther King Jr., has finally become reality. Will all the hype around the theme of "Change" finally materialise? Or will it be mere talk?

Only time will tell.


But, in the meantime.......















Obama spends some time imitating his pose in the office.
Actually, thats an Obama look-alike, an Indonesian, Ilham,
who hit fame overnight due to his uncanny resemblance. heh,














1.32am. I'm dead tired. nights. zzz.
