    Racism Alive, Beavers, Homeless Vets

    Sunday, February 25th, 2007

    Kiri Davis decided to replicate a study from the 1950s for her high school film project. The results are interesting…and very sad.

    Haven’t read a book? Fake it!

    The caste system is alive and well in India, unfortunately.

    Many Iraq veterans are homeless, trapped in the same spiral of rising cost of living that destroys many youth as well. They return from the war without skills marketable in the civilian world, and find themselves unable to support their families. Glad to see that the military takes care of its own.

    A ruckus at a sorority is attracting national attention…as well it should be, if the national chapter really did ask all of the overweight, non-white members of the sorority to leave. I am very proud of the women who resigned in protest, because that sort of thing really should not be tolerated.

    A rapist sent a letter of atonement…apparently not understanding that the only atonement rape victims wants to see is their attacker in jail. How creepy and wierd that must have been for the victim…and how excellent that she reported it so that he could be punished.

    Beavers in New York. Neato. I’m talking about the wild animal, perverts.

    School lunch…there’s a reason kids hate it, and it’s not just because it’s uncool.
