Kenya

Posted by zunguzungu on January 31, 2008

There was a point in time where I felt like it was a good thing for me to talk about the hellish inferno that’s engulfing Kenya. Things have only gotten much, much worse in the last week or so, and some of the stories coming out of that country defy belief. I don’t have the words, so I won’t try; however things shake out, it’s become clear that it will happen while the rest of the world stands by. There’s a link below you can click on if you wish to be horrified.

    i havent had a chance to read through your blog entries. with time, i will. i found your title rather funny..reminds me of the game i played as a child, ‘ a ring a ring of roses..a pocket full of roses..’ and you were right about ‘mzungumzungu.’ that just made me laugh…which is not hard to do considering im stuck with a needle and propped up with an iv.. ( smile )
