Hola from San Jose, California, home of my parents. I am terribly jealous of Christina’s recent posts, b/c she is ALONE and I am not, and yet we are both Onely. Whenever I visit – which happens about twice a year – my parents do not leave me alone. I am their only daughter, and the one they can “count” on to hang out with them nonstop while I visit. I have always played the role of mediator and appeaser — so I let them absorb my presence as much as they want with few complaints, because, after all, it is the role I have *always* played, and we do live half a country apart most of the time (my bros live in nearby San Fran and LA, respectively). But this visit is making it more and more clear to me how much I genuinely enjoy being, quite literally, ALONE. (more…)

This BBC news report describes an 18-year-old woman who has undergone suicide bomber training and is waiting to her final assignment (well, her only assignment, I would guess, if she does her job right). She wants to kill many Israelis. She would prefer to kill soldiers but will take on civilians too, even children, because they are “brought up to hate us.” An arguably intelligent and articulate young woman, she appears to have been brainwashed into becoming a tool of radical Palestinian leadership.  But you know what is most shocking about the story? Yes! She is JUST MARRIED! (more…)
