06.30.07Still in rage11 people assassinated. The international community blames the rebels. The families of the victims blame the president; they told him "You let them die, Mr. Uribe." I blame those monsters, that's what they are. There is only so much Alvaro Uribe can do, but we have to admit he's the only president that has been hard on the guerrillas in the last few years. That is why he got elected in the first place, because he gave us actions, not just words. That's why he got re-elected, because despite the opposition, his popularity is there. I blame the guerrillas for the ...

06.28.07¡Bastardos!The government of Colombia releases a bunch of rebels from jail in order to achieve some kind of humanitarian exchange, and what do the FARC do? They kill 11 out of 12 law-makers they kidnapped 5 years ago and were still hostages. The rebels claim they were killed in a crossfire. Excuse me? What a coincidence... 11 hostages killed just like that? That is one damn selective crossfire! Bullshit! The government claims there were no military operations in the zone on the date these people died. And I believe them! One doesn't know who to blame anymore. I'm sick and ...

06.27.07Those horrible Divorce groupsIn divorce support groups, people come and go like the waves of the ocean. Some sign up, get the help they need and move on. Some others, like me, stick around for many reasons. Because we want to help others going through the same painful process or simple because we make good friends that we still want to talk to. Sometimes some people don't understand why we want to be surrounded by all that "negativity" once we have moved on. The answer is simple: We want to help. This morning I woke up to find several IM's from a couple of ...

06.24.07Freedom WritersI don't remember crying during a movie lately as much as I did watching Freedom Writers. When I saw the film was coming out I wanted to see it, but then it was off theatres rather quickly and I thought that maybe it wasn't good. I was wrong, I think it's a very touching film. The fact that it's based on a true story makes it even more interesting. There are plenty of movies about gangs out there. Most of them concentrate on violence. Freedom Writers concentrates on a person who wanted to make a change. A person who didn't let ...
