"Postmodernism is a change-or-be-changed world. The word is out: Reinvent yourself for the 21st century or die! Some would rather die than change."
Leonard Sweet, cultural historian.

My friend Barack called last night

That’s right. Barack Obama called ME last night. At my home. Early evening. He talked to me about voting today and gave me a number to call if I needed a ride. It was great, except I couldn’t seem to get his attention (or a word in edgewise). The connection was good, too. I just don’t understand why the guy would call and not let me say anything.

And I thought I was special.

UPDATE: He just called again. I’m beginning to think it might be a recording. Nuts.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Now Michelle Obama has called. It was a nice change-of-pace. The race is close, she said, urging me to call my friends. Hello, friends.
