If I recall this moment, I had been looking out the window at the people sleeping in the mud, the outdoor pit toilets, and the general state of how people live. I started to tear up at one p ...

We walked up on this cow eating a potted plant that it has knocked over. What you cannot see in this photo is that there are two of them, both nearly eaten. A lady came out of the store a mo ...

Who Should I Vote For?

I have been listening to the pure bull pucky of the Republican presidential candidates and combining this with the things I sincerely dislike about the the Progressives and the pretend Democrat Obama and this has resulted in two sentiments.

Legitimacy Revisited

Those of you who have been subjected to my ramblings for a while will recall that I was obsessed with the legitimacy of statehood.
