On Jan 20th 2009, the Lincoln Bible will be used when Obama (a black brother) when he's sworn into office. Amazing on how a bible that was given to Abe by the black people of Maryland is going to be used by another black, as he's steps into power of the US.
I was recalling a Christmas when both of my older brothers were overseas; one in Nam and the other in Germany. Wanting both at home for the holiday and being clear across the world, it just wasn't feasible. Christmas Eve mom get's a phone call from Melvin (who was stationed in Germany and wasn't going to be home) but little did we know when the clock struck morning that a knock happened on the door. There stood Melvin in his glory; uniform and duffel bag on his back. I tell ya... I think that was one Christmas that I'll never will forget.
