Pentagon Eyes Mass Graves
The bodies of U.S. soldiers killed by chemical or biological weapons in Iraq or future wars may be bulldozed into mass graves and burned to save the lives of surviving troops, under an option being considered by the Pentagon. An eye opener to go with your Bloody Mary/Cappuccino this morning. {via: disinfo.com}

The international news is usually so damn bleak, that I'm thrilled when I find a shining light in a dismal, dark sea of despair. The Afghan women take their driving test this weekend. They have not been able to drive since 1992, when Islamic groups seized the capital, Kabul, and began to restrict women's public roles. Bastards. Can you imagine how fantastic it must feel to get some of your freedom/independence back in this way?

Quotes Of The Day
Friends are family you choose for yourself.

A friend is one who sees through you and still enjoys the view.

After a humble, meditative state today, I'm filled with gratitude for friends and family and the love we share together.

It wasn't long after 9/11, September 11, 2001, that I began this website. I felt compelled to connect with other people around the globe. I had recently heard about "weblogs" or "blogs" and I dove right into Blogger.com. I searched for others to connect with online and I found Ageless. It led to meeting many great friends to discuss events of the day. From then on it snowballed. Most importantly we offered one another support and friendship across the globe; finding that we were just a few keystrokes away.
