TRAVELING IS MY DESTINY, JOURNEY IS MY LIFE. CHASING SEASON AFTER SEASON, HOME IS A LUXURY. A SHORT REST IN THIS CAVE OF MINE, I STAND TALL IN FRONT OF A 9-FOOT WINDOW FACING EMPIRE STATE BUILDING, SIPPING MY MORNING COFFEE WITHOUT ONE SINGLE PIECE OF CLOTH ON......

He is NOT black!!



"He is not black...He is an Afro-Asian-European-Latin...that's an all-American President."
- Andrew Young on The Colbert Report Nov 5, 2008


At 11:00 pm EST last nigh, Wolf Blitzer announced, based on CNN's projection, the new President of America - Barack Obama. Almost instantly led by all major media channels, the entire country was deluged with a jubilation of celebrations for the first black President of the United States. While NY Times can't wait to extol the fall of "racial barrier", all these to me, sadly, is exactly the self-evidence of an underlying actuality - men are still judged by the color of their skin in this country.
