Kalahari Lighthouse: June 2005
http://kalaharilighthouse.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 30, 2005. Question of the day on b3ta. Hidden treasures: what have you found? When I was ten, we broke into a boarded-up church and found a nearly complete, hardly-rusted-at-all WW2 NSU bike with a swastika on it and EVERYTHING (like Steve McQueen rode in The Great Escape.) Feck knows how it got there. We looked everywhere but couldn't find the skeleton of its long dead hiding German rider-in-hiding. Most disappointing. Of your pick hitting metal, you usually shat yourself. Got up far too ...

tangenjill: October 2010
http://www.tangenjill.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 10, 2010. Pam Geller Does NOT Speak for Me. Having just read the New York Times. On blogger, Pamela Geller, I am disgusted with her arrogant bigotry. As a Jewish American I am annoyed that this narrow-minded person thinks she speaks for me. She does NOT. She has taken a legitimate concern of women's rights in Islamic societies and has defamed an entire faith. And by trying to link all. Palestinians to Hamas, she makes an opening for those who would call all. If ever there is to be a third...

tangenjill: Israel...Moving Away from Democracy
http://www.tangenjill.com/2011/07/israelmoving-away-from-democracy.html
Monday, July 18, 2011. Israel.Moving Away from Democracy. As someone who grew up proud of the ideals that a modern, democratic Israel stood for an ingathering of nations it is a sad to read how far it's moved from its foundation of democracy, plurality and freedom of speech. With the recent passing of the anti-boycott law by the Knesset. Israel has moved away from. Reconciliation and a two-state solution with the Palestinian people toward a de facto. No way," I said. Preserving democracy, human right...

tangenjill: November 2010
http://www.tangenjill.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 26, 2010. Doesn't know about being an American:. Our Pilgrim forbears were mostly grateful for the assistance that the Wampanoag gave the settlers of Plimoth Plantation. Blaming all Native Americans for selling Manhattan twice to the Dutch is like blaming all New Yorkers when you find out you don't own the Brooklyn Bridge after all and who really lost out there anyway? General George Washington's troops included. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

tangenjill: Being American
http://www.tangenjill.com/2012/09/being-american.html
Tuesday, September 25, 2012. I've been meaning to speak out on Scott Brown's taking to task Elizabeth Warren because she's claimed to have Native American ancestry. That she never did it to gain special consideration doesn't matter to him. Because she doesn't "look" like what he thinks a native person should look like, he thinks she's to blame. For something. That's outrageous. He doesn't "look" like what I'd imagine a jerk to look like but that doesn't mean he's not one. As a kid I felt an affinity for ...

Olímpico Desprecio: El telón de seda
http://olimpicodesprecio.blogspot.com/2008/08/el-teln-de-seda.html
Friday, August 22, 2008. El telón de seda. El espectáculo de la inauguración de los Juegos, tan grandioso como tramposo. Precedió al discurso de Jacques Rogge, el presidente del Comité Olímpico Internacional, durante el cual llamó a todo el mundo a "respetar" las diferencias políticas. Con ello no se refería al respeto por las opiniones que en conciencia puedan tener los ciudadanos, sino al respeto a los sistemas que, como el Chino, hacen de la represión de las conciencias su pan diario. 191;Por qué no s...
