Aung San Suu Kyi

When is someone going to be able to confront the ruling Junta in Burma and say 'enough is enough'? (To put it mildly) Suu Kyi's plight has moved me throughout much of her detained 13 years and the longer it drags on the madder we all get.

Maybe if some dynamite director made a film about her so the buzz could gather up a storm of publicity. Or if we snuck in under dark of night and miraculously planted massive amounts of oil down deep in the ground. Maybe then we'd go clean up their oppressive military regime that keeps their democratically elected female president locked away after rightfully winning the election.

Suu Kyi, I have enormous respect for you and still I pray for your swift release.

That's the problem though. They do have tons of oil which is what keeps the oppressive military regime in power, because they keep the oil flowing to Chevron and UNOCAl...

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.
