What is a “lightstalking hamster?”
|
haahhaha…sorry about that..i suppose the hamster thing wont make sense to people who dont know me well…..i did not even notice i did that! anywho…a lightstalking hamster is probably the highest order of hamster…perhaps even more prestigious than the siberian dwarf and/or the teddy bear variety…just for reference..hamsters..lightstalking or otherwise..cannot eat iceberg lettuce under any circumstances…anyway….<<< >>>for serious..shit is completely out of control over there…when the AU is gone at the end of the month…with the resumption of the aerial bombing campaigns….well….if there was a time to take notice…well…this is probably it….not to mention the clamp down on media presence…ahem.
|
Interesting punctuation, or lack of it, in your post Ethan.
|
If the AU pulls out it is estimated 100,000 per month will die. Not only because of the carnage that will take place but also the aid workers will have pull out. So no food deliveries. No security for the NGO’s.
Hey, do this thing up in Portland so westerners can make it.
Best wishes

hey paul… find me the spot and continue it done…. your estimates are high..but not implausible….sadly. the au pulling out is really the end…i mean.. forced removal of the media.. the resumption of tactics that caused GWB and others to call this genocide… what should one conclude right now? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??(preparing speech and film….)>>>>>>>>>>>lacking punctuation, ethan….<<<<<<<<<<<<

Let me just say that Ethan was really great. Terrific, even. Random girls were screaming his name. But slightly more importantly, I really hope this amounts to something and doesn’t become the Live8 of this year.

Aww thanks Ethan..I’m really sorry you lost a lot of your work. It looks like someone heard us though because there’s an envoy going to Darfur..although honestly there’s so much more work to be done. Keep bugging everyone you know, driving the press commentators at the White House crazy..all that good stuff. I’m astounded by the number of people I talk to each day who’ve never even heard of anything called Darfur.

Even though you didnt get to speak for long, Ethan, your speech was amazing! (Yes I was one of the random girls screaming your name..lol) But seriously I just wanted to say it was great to listen to you and I will keep trying to spread the word about Darfur. Thanks.
