She was asked to organize the meeting highlighted. She is currently working 0n an article for the Journal Of The UN, The Ledger, about women's rights in the middle east and specifically Afgan land. She is also the editor for The Journal of the Whitehead School of Diplomacy at Seton Hall. Can't take much credit though, she came out of the womb knowing what she was going to do in life.
Interesting thing though, often one will hear arguments of how empty and shallow Hollywood is and this and what a waste of time movies are. However it was a movie that galvanized this girl, then a high schooler, into action. She saw "Blood Diamond" with Leonardo Decaprio and was mesmerized by the horror portrayed and the subject of children were being used as soldiers in this trade of diamonds. Within a year she was on a plane to the slums of Kilgali in Kenya then Burundi, Africa. She has never been the same since. I am stunned to think we share any DNA so far above me is she in her humanitarianism and maturity.

Speaking of which I heard this guy talking of his most recent book dealing with Afghanistan, sounded like a superb read and have it ordered.

You must be so deprived, maybe just deluded. "Jerk titties" As if such a thing could exist.

no thanks.

Im in Chicago gomer. Riding the el into town to meet a friend for dinner. Then meetings the rest of the weekend.

I have a good friend who is a surgeon I worked with at Camp Lejeune. He bought a plane much to the chagrin of his wife. He just could not understand why no one would ride in it with him. Still alive and flying but I would let pcad or whoosshie take out my gallbladder before I flew anywhere with him.

That is way above cnn standards. I suggest she writes for non-american media.

Don't we all? Do any of us get enough? Are there any women out there with an appetite for as much sex as their husbands would want? I think the inequality of the sexual drives between men and women is one of the great jokes God, if he/she/it exists, ever played on his/her's/it's creation.

What kind of meetings? I could actually come up for lunch or dinner. If you're near the Art Museum ( Art Institute of Chicago), there is a terrific restaurant across the street called " The Gage". Terrific elk chili.

some construct criticism...she needs to add more glib soundbites, meaningless tangents and blatant misrepresentations. With those she might get a shot at anchoring Fox news.

Velo Vol 02-22-13 10:45 PM

Sometimes I think my humour does not well translate in other parts of the Internets.

It's a problem.

Ironic, since no one watches it here (according to the ratings).

Only if she is blond and good at internalizing the GOP daily talking points.

I have a friend who is a pilot as a hobby. He gave up flying when his first kid was born. I went up with him a few times and those little planes sure are scary. He even handed me the control a few times.

If she's really dropped on her head she can go on the Fox morning show.

American news does generally suck. Even worse is the drive to make them "stars" rather than simply the "newsreaders " that they are. The English have the right perspective. I get most of my news from the BBC, not perfect but a hell of a lot better than network news and galaxies better than FOX .
