The premiere January event of Detroit has come–the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS). Detroiter’s and people from all over come to this event to see cars, show off, or just have a good time. I go during the day, on employee day, which is during the week, so I avoid the bigger crowds. This year, [...]

That being said… The 44th president of the United States of America, Barack Obama! Here are my favorite highlights from inaugural morning 2009:

In the months since President elect Barack Obama has won that title, I have heard so many people talk about him as “The One,” “Our Saviour,” and other similar appellations. I even hear church people talk and write in this fashion about Obama.

It irritates me how hardly any place of business recognizes today as a holiday. I have heard stories of people who had to bargain at their jobs to get the day off. One such story involved the employees giving up Columbus Day to have MLK Day off.

I am ashamed to say that in all my 32 years on this earth, today was the first time that I had ever been to the Motown Historical Museum. I went with my mother and younger sister. You know how it is. People never play tourist in their own town…I was actually supposed to go [...]

They try to have something for him every year; however, this year, this person is pretty sickly, and the family is thinking that this may be the last one for him. So, my brother asked if I wanted to ride with him to [...]

There are a few things in my home that have been difficult to use because they remind me of him. Now before knowing, some of you may say to just throw the stuff out. Most things that could be thrown out were thrown out when I moved. But some things have too much value, and [...]

Today marks the beginning of the end of another era in Apple Computer (oops it’s just Apple now) history. Today is the first day of the last Macworld that Apple will attend. Being the kind of Apple geek fan that I am, it saddens my heart, especially since I never got the chance to actually go to a Macworld. I was still [...]

So, for the first time since the divorce has been final, I went out by myself. I think the real reason it took me so long to do so was because of the snow and cold. Still, there was some anxiety about going it alone. The funny thing is that I was not supposed to be going [...]

Before I got married, I loved being alone. I loved having my own space and writing my own day each and every day. I loved not having to be concerned about what someone else wanted to do. I loved not having to have things set up at home with the consideration of someone else in [...]
