Grey Oof! Just saw this now, Siona.... Yeah, flutters I think it was... no, "flaps", but I don't like it much. "Flutter" was the name to replace "Grapevine". Anyway, I just used "tweets" here because it's more readily recognizable. :) (9 months ago)

Check out Obama's Message to the Iranian People in honor of the Persian New Year, which is tonight.  In Farsi (the Persian language), OO BA MA means “he is with us.”

I think Obama really challenges us to rise to the level of our highest, most evolved selves.  The difference between Obama's and Bush's CoG is mind-blowing.

Thank CoG for that mind-blowing difference.  Bush will remain bad enough as a memory.

That meaning of his name in Farsi is astounding !! I don't know what the meaning of the meaning is, but surely there must be something….

Thanks for the link and the info, Tely !!

I think this one is a keeper:-) He just seems to have such a sense of what needs done and how to get it just right. I wondered after the elections if anyone could live up to all the hopes that were riding on him. I'd say so far he has been impressive. THis is what leadership is supposed to look and feel like.
