So...

I've been reading the Harry Potter books since Kindergarten. At age 9 something clicked and I became obsessed. Once the 4th movie came out in... 2005, maybe, I lost all faith in the series.

That said, I must say that the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows trailer actually renewed my hope for the franchise. With two movies totally about 5 hours, they better get this shit right.

Why yes, we did just make a law.

It's officially official. Today, this Monday May 24th, 2010, President Barack Hussein Obama signed the LRA Disarmament and Northern Uganda Recovery Act to make it a LAW!!!!!

To Invisible Children Co-Founder, Jason Russell he said, "When you see Jacob, you tell him something... I'm going to do something about this."

What a guy. I knew I loved him for a reason.

Here is his official statement about the signing of the bill: http://blog.invisiblechildren.com/2010/05/obama-speaks-the-president-declares-his-commitment-to-the-lra-bill/

And here's mine:

Guys. After 5 years of relentless lobbying for the support and attention of the bill, we, the humble citizens of the United States of America, have just introduced the largest piece of legislature ever made law concerning Africa. WE JUST CHANGED THE GOD-DAMN WORLD!

Congratulations to everyone and WE DID IT!

I could really use a wish right now.

'Airplane' by B.o.B. featuring Paramore's Hayley Williams. It's amazing.

Oh, boy. I love this man.
