Watching...

My absolutely mostest favorite You Tube video ever!!!

DNR

Watching...

I should be cleaning the house. The cat fur is piling up in corners and has nearly buried the CPU. It's a wonder the thing hasn't caught fire.... which reminds me... I never did drop a work ticket at the hospital to get the computer on 3rd floor vacuumed out... hope it doesn't catch fire......

but on to the main event....

A while back I started reading 'Escape' by Carolyn Jessop, a survivor/runaway from the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It's a disturbing book detailing the abuse within the cult. Today on the telly, I see that 52 girls have been removed from the FLDS compound in Texas and placed with Child Protective Services.

Maybe this will spur the Utah Child Protective Services to go investigate what is going on in Hildale.

It's frightening what goes on in this country, known to the authorities, but not pursued.

This site has an interesting, brief synopsis of the book... read on....

Wondering...

Can my friends be 'dooced' if I say bad things about their workplaces on my blog?

Wondering...

Wouldn't it be something?

If,

forty years after the assassination of

the Reverend Martin Luther King,

the man who three years prior

brokered the deal that gave black people the federal right to vote,

this nation voted a black man into the office of

President?
