Little People, Big World
I am watching an episode of Little People, Big World called “Trebbuchet Trouble; Accident Aftermath” on TLC (actually this is TIVO’d from this weekend). If you have never seen this show, you have too. It is really good. It is the story of a couple who happen to be midgets. They are showing the world that they are just like the rest of us.
This episode is about the trebbuchet accident. The trebbuchet was being used as a pumpkin launcher. Last episode at the very end, it hit Matt’s (the father) son Jacob and his business partner, Mike. This show is about the aftermath. I am sitting here tearing up, because I know how easy this could be my kid.
Like I said, if you haven’t seen this show, watch it!
New Orleans Needs Federal Aid, Not Presidential Photo-Ops
Mr. President: Katrina Survivors Do Not Welcome You, We Rebuke You!
We live in a devastated city and you are a big part of the reason why it sill sits in ruins. Your administration has abandoned our children by savaging their public schools. Your administration has tortured our working class people by refusing to reopen the city’s public housing developments. And your administration is fully complicit in placing our uninsured in harms way by ruthlessly pursuing the privatization of local public healthcare in the aftermath of Katrina. And, finally your administration is guilty of sending our sons and daughters of to war for oil and empire just when we need them most to help us rebuild our community.
Mr. President, we, Katrina Survivors all, do not welcome you to our city, we rebuke you!
