Obama Wins The US Elections!

This is a historic moment for the United States,
and definitely a historic blog post for years to come!

With a huge win over John McCain, Barack Obama
wins the US elections and becomes the first
African American president in Nation’s history.

This clearly shows that everything is possible in this wonderful
country and it further affirms my decision
to come to this great land over 10 years ago
when I was just turning 18.

I was maybe too young to follow the elections in previous years, or maybe, as some of us will agree, none of the elections were as interesting and fun as this one, but I am sincerely glad the guy I was backing up prevailed.

Also, one of the main reasons this is such a historic event is the fact that without the technology behind the scenes, I sincerely doubt Obama would have ever been able to reach as many people as he did and get his message across. With his awesome website at http://my.BarackObama.com and biggest following of anyone on Twitter (http://twitter.com/barackobama), he started a new trend which I sincerely hope continues.

I hope he takes this success and the technology that helped him get in touch with people (and ultimately get elected) into the core of the United States so that the “connection” we all now have with him can continue while he runs this country into a better tomorrow. He oppened the doors for millions of americans to get in touch with him and have their say - I hope this door stays wide open so “we the people” can be heard.

I’ve been to a bunch of caves in my life and while they are all feature stalagmites and stalactites of various sizes, none have such beautiful — and HUGE — crystals as Mexico’s Cave of Crystals. Sincerely, this is a heckuva site to see.

It was found in about 8 years ago (year 2000) when the mining company pumped out the water out of 30×90 feet cave. It turns out the cave was filled with mineral rich water which encouraged the amazing growth of these beautiful crystals. The temperature inside is ridiculously hot at around 136 degrees Fahrenheit (58C), which is quite unusual for the caves. All the ones I went to were quite cold .
