"So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."
Fuck it poured down yesterday, after 5 days of insufferable heat and humidity, it was great!

And growing cacti and eating limes and playing the marraccas and making pinadas and pumping out lots of low-grade coke and you've all got little brown hearts. This is what Nando tells me so it must be true
The only thing thats really true about aussies is we're all alcoholics And i was serious about the opening ceremony, they had a big Man from Snowy River themed part in it with lots of stockmen on horses. Ill try and find a clip.

Nice, thanks for going thru that effort. I haven't ridden a horse since I sold all mine 3 years ago. I miss it.

ROLL CALL! Foreigners, unite!

If you're foreign, am I domestic?

This situation in Zimbabwe is chillingly dire. The international community is waiting for Africa to act, but its clear that Africa has neither the ability or the desire to prevent a humanitarian disaster in one of its neighbours. How much coverage is this getting in northern hemisphere nations? And how many African countries need to go through massive political or ethnic genocides before anyone will actually give a shit?

Damn-if-i-know Daghain! Maybe we're all foreign!
Zone, yes. EVERY time there's a major crisis in Africa the world is too slow to react. Zimbabwe is bad now & it's gonna get a lot worse (Mugabe will run out the terror-police for a few months now - cow the opposition - & steal the run-off election. And the world will let him.)
Hopefully with the amount of media attention and the pressure put on the SADC will pay off.

Zone, I hear about it a great deal on the BBC world report which airs on NPR (National Public Radio) late every night. It sounds like Europe is more concerned with it than America, but I can't say for sure bc I don't watch TV. Also, most of the international news is being overshadowed by the democratic primary right now. Americans are generally selfish as well, and can't see past the stock numbers or gas prices. America is the embodiment of ethnocentrism in most cases, and unfortunately, this includes Zimbabwe.
Also, I subscribe to Newseek (a national news magazine) and it hasn't mentioned much about anything other than the primaries.
Yeah the NYTimes generally has articles about US interests only - internal stuff & mid east stuff. I mean most papers are like this but we always seem to get alot of Africa and Asia news here. US gets more central and south america, though.
