Hmmm... I thought that the concept of Martyrdom for what you belived good and right was rewarded in the Catholic faith...hmmmm..
Not saying i wouldn't have done it... no, wait.. i wouldn't have.
Oh well, I'm not the Pope.

Tocuhe, Touche.
damn this world
| By Hannah Hennessy BBC News, Lima |
The Bible is open at John, Chapter 11, telling the story of the Resurrection of Lazarus.
Behind the curtains which separate a tiny bedroom from the living room, lies a sick 43-year-old woman, whose daughter, Graciela, is prepared to take drastic measures to help her.
Graciela - or Gracia as she prefers to be known - has been working since the age of eight, left school at 15 and now three years later earns around $60 a month acting or modelling.
Her mother is too sick to work and she does not want her 12-year-old brother to miss school.
But Gracia says the money she earns is not enough and every month she worries about not being able to pay the bills or having to say No when her brother Guillermo comes back from school asking for money for books.
Theirs is a story like thousands of other Peruvians who live in poverty, but for one fact.
Last month, Gracia decided to sell her virginity to pay for her mother's medical treatment and to improve her family's quality of life. ![]()
I felt the hopelessness of wanting to move forward, wanting to study, and you just don't get the opportunity because it's all about money ![]()
"My mother was ill and my brother and me too. [And I felt] the utter hopelessness of wanting to move forward, wanting to study, be someone and you just don't get the opportunity because it's all about money," says Gracia.
"Sometimes you find yourself at a crossroads and you see no way out," she adds, staring at the terracotta painted walls.
"You stop and see there's only thing that's going to help you and perhaps it only has to happen once in your life.
"That's what I thought. And you never have to do it again.
"You have to get on with it, without looking back, because you can study, work with this money and help lots of people who are poor like me."
'Prostitution'
She said she offered to sell her virginity to the highest bidder, advertising herself in newspapers, on television and the internet.
It did not take long before many in this staunchly Catholic country were up in arms.
Some said her actions were nothing short of prostitution. Others said she needed psychological help.
She says some people admired her ingenuity, saying she was doing more than the teenage girls who lost their virginity in the parks because they wrongly thought they were in love.
Her virginity almost became a question of national pride, with some commentators and chat show hosts accusing her of trying to damage Peru's reputation.
But Gracia was unfazed by the criticisms.
"People in Peru are opportunistic and they see everyone else's problems, but never their own," she says.
"I'm just a person who's trying to get ahead in life. I've always worked since I was little, but here there are no opportunities for young people.
"They don't bother asking what's going on in my life, what I am like and what has forced me to take this decision. They only judge me and point their fingers at me. ![]()
I came out and said publicly what my situation was and nobody, nobody has been capable of saying, thank you, I'll help you with something ![]()
"I came out and said publicly what my situation was and nobody, nobody has been capable of saying, thank you, I'll help you with something.
"And there are people who have loads of money, loads of jobs."
Graciela laughs as she recounts how a Canadian man offered her $1.5m (£780,000) to have sex with her.
"He said he'd prefer I didn't do it, but if I was going to do it with anyone, it should be with someone who treated me right and I think he knew his bid wasn't going to be topped.
"He was really happy when I said No."
Publicity stunt?
Almost a month after Gracia advertised her virginity for sale, her economic situation has not changed.
But her moral situation has. She says she has decided not to give up her virginity for any price.
"Mum lives with me 24 hours a day, and respects my decision because I am an adult.
"But she was giving me advice, and explaining how my life might be if I did this: What example would I give my children, what kind of man would accept me with this past, would it make me happy, this money?
"Obviously it's a necessity, but it's not everything, it's a bad necessity and it made me realise that this money wasn't going to make me happy, I could make myself happy with my own merits."
Some critics have suggested that Gracia offered to sell her virginity solely to court publicity and never actually intended to go through with it.
Only she will know if that is the case. Certainly, her arguments are convincing, but perhaps so too is her acting.
But what she has done, indisputably, is come out and say: The way many people live in Peru is wrong and I want to do something about it.Shiat, what happened to a nice meal, a movie and a rose?
Or just a Big Mac?
I miss the old days....

I aspire to be this man. This is why i will go to law school.
hmmm... today is the 20th? 21st.
But i promise... alot has happened to me lately.
For one, i caught mono. Whitch really, really, really sucked balls. i sat around for 10 days an wimpered like a bitch, and on top of all that, my internet at the apartment has been down for some reason. So i basically sat around and watched Dr. Phil and days of our lives as my grades flew out the door and all my friends had a great time.
Next, we had Greek week. This is a week where all fraternities compete to see who the best is. We won. I even got out and did a trivia battle for 2 hours while i had a temperature of about 103. I was slightly retarded... yet we still won.
Then i had to spend about a week running around kissing ass to try to get my grades back... whitch hopefully worked i think... i kissed alot of ass.
And now im back... kind of. With the lack of actual people who come by and look at my blog, i haven't figured out why i still do this... but i will, just not everday now.
Ok then.. bye,

still alive... again.
Now for the third time, Warren Jeffs is wrong about his doomsday predictions.
2,500 of his most faithful followers gathered at a mysterious sprawling complex in Eldorado, Texas. Wednesday, Jeffs prophesied he and his followers would be caught up and sent to heaven, while the rest of world would come to an end. But you can see they are still there, and continue to work on their new temple.
We'll have more about the doomsday prediction out of Texas coming up tonight on ABC 4 News at 10.
Some people left behind by Jeffs in the twin towns of Hildale and Colorado City say that while there might not be violence Wednesday, they fear it will happen.
Many disaffected members of the FLDS church hope that with Jeffs gone they can get their homes back. Jeffs is the only trustee of the UEP, the group that owns most of the homes and businesses in Hildale and Colorado City.
There is also fear that warren Jeffs is stirring up racial hatred amongst his followers. A recent sermon by Jeffs was secretly recorded by a dissident member of his church. On the tape, Jeffs refers to the black race as "immoral, filthy, people"
Jeffs voice on tape:
"You see some classes of the human family that are black, uncouth, rude, and filthy... Uncomely, disagreeable, and loathe in their habits… Wild and seemingly depraved of nearly all the blessings of the intelligence that is generally bestowed upon mankind."
Jeffs also warned his followers of -quote- "relationships with blacks and of enjoying modern music".
If 50-cent heard this shiat the aftermath would be terrible.( huge pun intended)
In reality though, this is a dumb ass texas cult leader who is saying that the world is about to end and that any who follow him will go to heaven huh?
Is he a Bush?

MENOMINEE, Mich. - A group of turkeys has been trotting around the city, chasing kids, startling motorists and loitering at people's homes. Authorities were notified, the EagleHerald reported, and after a slew of complaints, a hunt ensued.
| |
"It's been keeping us on our toes," said Mike Baker, public service officer for the Menominee Police Department.
Two turkeys were captured by state Department of Natural Resources employees and turned loose in Menominee. One disappeared. Another turned up as a carcass on a city street, the newspaper reported.
A fifth, nicknamed Gertrude by a local family, also has disappeared.
Another group of marauding turkeys was found in nearby Marinette, Wis., but they appear to coexist well with residents.
"There have been no problems whatsoever," said Joe Rossley, Marinette's animal control and code enforcement officer.
The sight of turkeys in the city may be mostly in the past for the time being. In the spring, turkeys typically begin nesting and they like to do that in rural or wooded areas, not in backyards.
"A lot of wild instincts take over in the spring," says Craig Albright, a wildlife biologist with the DNR. "Most of the time they scatter about. It makes for a very exciting spring turkey hunt."
Turkey hunting season in Michigan starts in April. In fall and winter, turkeys may flock to more urban areas where residents, initially delighted with the novelty of a backyard turkey invitation, feed them.
"Turkeys seem to find cities to their liking, especially if they can find food," Albright said. "They're not afraid of people or traffic."
Turkeys have found the southwestern Upper Peninsula to be a prime breeding ground. But the birds are not native to the area. But Albright said turkeys were introduced to Menominee County in the early 1960s.
"We're about 200 miles north of their range," Albright said. "They've got to be able to scratch to the ground surface and forage.
"We've got too much snow."
Crazy turkeys... Must be trying to take over now that perdue has died.
sorry.
Please forgive my insolence...
Alot of good people have had tragic events lately.
1) The pope. god-communicator among catholics has passed away. In the religious game, this is terrible. In the polics game, it's a rebirth.
Now the way is open to a new pope... possibly a black one, due to the increased catholic activity in the africian regions of the world.
I put 5 buck on it, It would be a clutch move, for everybody.
2) Frank Perdue. The great chicken cutler of the world passed away. God bless his soul. All you can eat chicken buffets are in mourning currently.
3) Tom Jones. uhhhhh.... If he's not dead yet.... then im sorry. especially if he's is reading this.
4) my damn wallet. I lost the 40 dollar bastard. if you find it, give it back, you ass.
