Interrupted United flight 923 from London to Washington, DC with her bizarre behavior including urinating on the floor? It turns out she was a peace activist.
You know, nightf, I do remember that lady and the mysteriousness of the nonspecificity of the reports about her wild behavior. All I know is, when a commercial jet travels all the way across the Atlantic only to be forced to land in Boston rather than... was it Washington? Somewhere very close in plane time. She must have been really REALLY wild, this old lady. If I'd been on that plane I would have been really pissed. I would feel pissed on. Which is, of course, exactly what they're doing. And LOVING it! Have you heard they're detaining bloggers now? In the US? Hoffman Estates, a few days ago. Chicago suburb. So. Watch what you say. Or risk being disappeared. For myself, I decided to fight. Terrorism's bullshit and 9-11 went down way different than we've been dragged into believing. Things To Do: Impeach Bush, arrest Cheney, detain Rumsfeld; indict all, select only the most ironic and draconian sentences. Move on.
May 30, 2007, 17:45 White River Primary School in Mpumalanga says school rugby is being disrupted in the Lowveld over the inclusion of five black players in its first rugby team. Apparently other schools refuse to play against the White River team because the five players are physically too strong and look older than their age. The other schools deny the allegations. All five black players in the first rugby team have earned provincial colours. Their headmaster says two primary schools have already indicated that they are pulling out their rugby teams. He says the reason for withdrawing is to avoid injuries. continued...
Morgan Freeman says the concept of a month dedicated to black history is "ridiculous." "You're going to relegate my history to a month?" the 68-year-old actor says in an interview on CBS' "60 Minutes" to air Sunday (7 p.m. EST). "I don't want a black history month. Black history is American history." Black History Month has roots in historian Carter G. Woodson's Negro History Week, which he designated in 1926 as the second week in February to mark the birthdays of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln. Woodson said he hoped the week could one day be eliminated — when black history would become fundamental to American history. Freeman notes there is no "white history month," and says the only way to get rid of racism is to "stop talking about it."
