Presidential Portrait Comes to Life at Oakland Terrace

For the past month, students at Oakland Terrace Elementary School have watched as painter Jason Swain has worked on a portrait of President Barack Obama in the school’s all-purpose room. Students learned about painting and history from Swain, who was impressed with the students’ curiosity and the depth of their questions. Students and staff have signed a board attached to the back of the painting so they too can be a part of history.

Hi Shanon-

Sydney people love to hear the sort of praise you just sent: those harbour spectacles are the thing that we do best. Feel free to post me a picture of New Year's Eve in Oklahoma City. I'm sure you guys know how to throw a party too!

Hiya Shanon!

I'm so delighted for you that your year starts out filled with excitement. Mine is more mellow. SoCal is providing much literal sunshine... winter has all but disappeared. And I believe there is much magic in my (near) horizon. I've noticed that often life runs with an underground spring of energies that I may not be physically cognizant of, but are coalescing, ready to burst forth in a font of unforeseen activity and marvelous movement ("Onan" and my trip to India are a great example of that!). I am ready to revel in it!

One day, hopefully soon, you and I can share in the warmth of chocolates and hugs in the physical world... xoxoxo!

And a very yummy New Year to you too, Shanon, filled with creamy goodness. I hope you get to catch up on all your flitting about so that you can relax and smell the chocolatey sweetness. As always, my comments are filled with loving hugs and kisses for you! xoxox!

And a sparkling '009 to you too, Shanon! Mine scored a bright and shiny start, and here's a picture taken next to me at our New Year's Eve to prove it:


...Though whether the light continues to shine is anyone's guess. At least I know I've got some good friends in the world, and thanks so much for being one. Hugs right back atcha!

You guys are incarrigible! Please carry on though - I didn't even know these cars existed until you guys came along ;-))

I love a girl who loves her cars! A luxury version of the Space Shuttle- great analogy! (Oh, when you say "Oz-zilla is Magnum," you mean Dodge Magnum?) I agree that life's too short to roll around in a crappy car. Especially given how much of our lives we spend inside 'em. And talking about 'em. And lusting after 'em. My oh my!

Hey Shanon, thanks for that warm and fuzzy feeling that you bring to this place - that feeling that can only be described as warm and fuzzy! I'm glad that you are part of the Wannabe family :-)

Howdy Shanon-

I see your charming comments sprinkled over my page like fairy dust from those hummingbird wings. You're such a charmer! It's uncanny timing too, because like a little kid I wanted to show you what I want for Christmas (and nobody else in my online life would probably get it). Meet Oz-zilla:


The SV6's big big brother, the first Australian Supercar, a real life version of the 6000 SUX!


All hail the HSV (Holden Special Vehicles) W427! The mother of all Australian muscle cars:


Powered by a 503-hp 427-cid LS7 V8, it will be Holden's- and Australia's- fastest four-door sedan ever, doing 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.7 seconds, and a standing quarter-mile in the high 12s. Just picture yourself behind the wheel with all that power!



Plus there's room in the back for your mates to come as well.


Yep, that's the toy I want from Santa... but he'll probably keep it himself for pulling the sled. Still, a boy can dream :-)
