Big News from the First Day

The Obamastration has begun, and things appear to be forging forward at full steam. However, Bar's resting easy today as he finds out he'll be able to have a super top secret infinitely protected Blackberry (which I predict gets hacked into sometime in the next 3-6 weeks). I'm happy for him, I have the poor man's Blackberry, and cannot imagine having to sacrifice it for any reason at all. I mean, the poor guy's already had to give up one of his favorite vices, why should he have to give up another just because he's the most powerful leader in the land?

However, there's also some bad news, despite Blackberry access, all White House staffers will not be allowed to instant message, which is crushing my hopes to IM with Reggie Love and/or Jon Favreau. I'm going to have to reassess my stalking, ahem, I mean dating strategy.
