For Shasta

As the whole nation sighed with relief for a little girl found, we had all already fell in love with the beautiful smile in the many pictures we had sen for the nearly 7 weeks she was missing. As our hearts continue to go out to this brave little girl, many are wanting to offer their support. And it seems this desire is occurring all over the Nation. For those that wish to send support, gifts, or donate into one of the accounts set up to help this courageous girl, the following clip is for you.

"Groene said the mail lady brings an armful of mail and packages every day and that the only address is: Shasta in Coeur d'Alene.And that's where he would like people to send things."The post office people know where we live," said Groene, whose daughter will someday feel compelled to respond publicly to thank all those who are making her smile a little more every day.Monetary donations can be dropped off at any U.S. Bank branch or at Inland Northwest Bank, 955 Ironwood, 664-8747."

It is said in one report (here) that Duncan used a camcorder in his attacks, and recorder numerous attempts to murder the children, but failed after something the children said or done. In one apparent attempt to slay Dylan, the boy — who was bound and gagged and unable to wiggle little more than his hands — flashed the "I love you" sign to his sister. Having a brother myself, I can tell you nothing can replace the love a brother sheds on his little sister. And though we can not fill the gap she must now feel- I hope that all will be moved to show Shasta the love that we have come to have for the strong and brave, and beautiful little girl who has lost so much at such a young age. Whether it is by sending her letters of encouragement, gifts, or support for the long road she will have to recover from this tragic experience, or by writing our legislators and congressmen and DEMANDING that this be the last story of its kind.

Florida Sex Offender Registry

Reading the news today, I was taken back to see that the Florida Sex Offender registry was being criticized. Having had the chance to look at it previously, I had always found it rather informative, and well organized. The issue that many are having with it now wouldn't be noticed by the occasional browser on the site. Which makes it even worse. A review of the FSR has found some rather unsettling statistics: The News-Press analyzed the Florida Department of Law Enforcement database of 36,306 sex offenders and found: • 9,205 of them are incarcerated • 7,037 have run away or can't be found • 824 have been deported; and • 516 are dead. Of the 15,573 sex offenders listed as released and not on parole or probation, only 11,355 of those actually live in Florida. Sex offender registries can only be usefully, and only fully do what they where designed to do when they are updated, maintained and monitored continuously. When you are relying on the SO registries to monitors how safe your...

This land is my land, this land is not your land...

I was reading the illegal immigrant news this morning... you know, all about the Spanish National anthem... and all about their big rally May 2... and I started thinking. Perhaps, just perhaps we need to stand up. It may be a really good time to remind everyone who's country this is. 12 million illegals... heh, I think we can beat that. The rough estimate is that the US has a population of 298,000,000, or close too it. Take away the estimated 12 million illegals, and we still have 286,000,000 give or take some. So, basically, if one were to be honest- a boycott by legal citizens would be more impressive. 12 million illegals, who can not legally vote verses 286 million citizens who can minus children and some criminals. My country. Not theirs. My taxes, my jobs, my political leaders. 286 million people should be able to remind law makers just who put them in office. 286 million people should be able to remind companies who buys their products. 286 million people should be able to si...

WTW Someone Please Help Us

There's so much to work with, I'm going to just hit as much as I can. Ashely Simpson decided to pick a fight at McDonald's. Betting millions that if the employee would just go and get the manager- the manager would just love her. Simpson's climbing on the counter and irate behavior where in typical White Trash Style. Great coverage at Stereogum. Tom Cruise has decidedly canned his sister for her inability to help him keep his mouth shut. Evidently he needs a real professional as his PR person- in order to keep him in line. It's just not right firing family because you're and idiot. Kate Hudson is suing someone because of photos of her in which she looks like a starving actress. She claims the images suggest she has a eating disorder- no Kate, it's not the images, it's the you. One should not sue because they have starved themselves to the point of it being noticeable in photos. Please stop by these other great sites to read more WHITE TRASH WEDNESDAY B...
