Saudi Arabia's 8 year old Bride

And yet, they decapitate homos. This just makes me shake my head. And of course, 'The Kingdom' is our friend. Cuba is still isolated and we can 't legally get a good Cuban cigar because ... what, I can't even remember. Human rights abuses? No, can't be that, there's nothing more abusive than marrying off 8 year old girls like the country America's been pal'in around with. *sigh*

So. Crazy. Makes me wanna run away to a deserted island and live out my days sipping rum from a coconut. ~~

Inspirational Quote

  • "People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can't find them, they make them."

    QIANA MARTIN,
    DREAM FULFILLER
    One of the most thoughtful and spiritually grounded people I know, Qiana Martin took a risk and jumped on an opportunity to go to Brazil to fulfill a dream many would be fearful to try. In these profoundly dreary economic times, quitting a job at a prestigious law firm to pursue a passion is rare and courageous. Read her story here.

    REST IN PEACE ODETTA
    Odetta, the singer whose deep voice wove together the strongest songs of American folk music and became an accompaniment to the black-and-white images of the freedom marchers who walked the roads of Alabama and Mississippi and the boulevards of Washington in quest of an end to racial discrimination, died on Tuesday, Dec. 2, 2008 at the age of 77.
