So... I felt it appropriate to create this space to harbor my own thoughts since my family blog - All Things Adams - does not lend itself to the miscellaneous ramblings of a 30-something American male such as me. If you have enough time to tune in, welcome. In theory, you'll see anything from opinion to rant, quotes to poetry, fact, fiction, and the journaling of my life's adventures - and perhaps a few hyperlinks to items of interest along the way. Enjoy!

Obama
So it is. Thank goodness. Someone who can lead our Country into a new generation of issues. Can you imagine trusting someone to lead us into the future who lived most of his adult life without a personal computer? The Internet? Cell phones? Wikipedia? Without an understanding of the importance of the affect that the information age has had on today's workforce? These comments boarder on age discrimination, but to someone who is 72 years old, these things must just seem like incredible new tools to use. In reality, they are not just incredible tools, they have had a profound effect on our attitutes, minds, perspectives, aspirations, and visions for the future. They have transformed our approach to the world not unlike the way "The Catcher and The Rye", nuclear weapons, and television influenced the youth of the 50's. We need someone who has been shaped by these new technologies in the same way that we have in order to truly share a vision for the future.
