To: Libya...Love, U.S.A.

Shown in the photo above is US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi in Tripoli, Libya as they hash out details to expand diplomacy and play nice in what is a real life game of Risk. If you are unaware of the history of Libya and the U.S.A, well The United States is restoring full diplomatic relations with Libya and removing the North African country from its list of state sponsors of terrorism after 27 years. This is really interesting news, and I would only imagine it is being done to shore up positive relations in the Arab world. Oh! And for some sweetheart oil deals. Currently Libya is supplying 5% of the US's oil supply, and I am pretty sure they'd like a little more.

I'm blogging (officially) to blogclaaat!

I have had my blogger account for sometime, but I have had it ice in hopes I would be developing a full web infrastructure to house all my ambitions...from clothing, music, politics, tech warfare etc. If you are here, you can see that the infrastructure is not complete but given my frequent notes on facebook, and encouraging comments from some friends I decided to hit the ground blogging.

So thank you for checking out go&d! Gold Oil & Diamonds is a creation that plays on the earth’s most lucrative natural resources. This will also be the title of the new online urban centre for fashion, design, music, art, and lifestyle materials. All of which will eventually be available online for purchase, and information purposes.

CHEERS,

The image above was my original header for the blog, but we're doing it a little different now as you can see.
