It can also be dangerous to challenge such weddings, which are deeply rooted in many villages’ traditions.

Earlier this week, a welfare officer underwent 18 hours of surgery to reattach her arms, which were hacked off by an angry father with whom she had argued. She had urged him not to marry off his young daughter to a teenage boy.

Just think about that. How would you like that to be your job?

There are five people online, and no one to talk to. I think I will go and watch some Arrested Development.

So this is my daily post. About my boring day. I had to talk in front of a group of about a hundred people, talking about the gold rush. I still get nervous when I do that. Then I ran three rotations of field games. That is three sack races, three threeleged races, a water break and tag if we have time. And it was hot today. I didn’t take off my wool fleece either. Oh, I stood out on the highway for an hour and ten minutes. That wasn’t a boring as I thought it would be. The people that I was waiting for got lost, they used mapquest directions instead of the ones we provided. They took an hour to finally all show up. That is my day for today. Hot, tireing, and hungry. But now I am better. I am rehydrated, cooled down, and with a full belly. Oh, did you know that Verizon Online DSL is now 2x faster?

Bass, iPod, Powerbook. Yep that is my wish list. I am really consitering getting the powerbook. It just looks so pretty.
