All hail the Buffalo!

• Public screenings of the Da Vinci code have been banned.
• SO WHAT eh? There is always the dvd... [snigger, snigger]
• Does it take a book or a movie to crack one's religious faith?
• How come most of Asia is screening it...even India is.
• "We don't easily get bothered with a book or a movie, because for sure our faith is much, much deeper than that, and we realize if we really follow the teachings of Christ, we should be relaxed." - Pedro Quitorio - Spokesperson, Catholic Bishop's Conference of the Philippines
• "It matters greatly to us as it adversely affects the most sacred beliefs of our people when it levels the charge that the Catholic Church is essentially a vast network founded on maintaining the lie of Jesus' Divinity." - Catholic Bishops Conference, Sri Lanka

Helplessness,
That's what I felt this morning,
when you woke me.
Eyes shut, listening to you
Crying, complaining, hurt, worried, scared.
It's beyond my reach.
I ache to take a swish of that wand,
Make the pain go away,Bring a smile to your face.
Useless - that's what I am.

Bored, uninterested, world-weary...

Started off writing a post about peace, people's sad-ass attitudes to the entire 'situation in the country' and email forwards; as I was completely irked by an email I received about the MoD putting up a website to counter TamilNet - and then just thought it useless and deleted it.

I'm bored. I want something brand and shiningly new to do. I want something interesting to do, anything. I want to do an adventurous, selfish and supersedingly fun 'I'm-travelling-the-world-having-a-ball' kind of thing. Ideas?

See what I found.
