Amanda

A little over eleven years and still remembered.
A beautiful heart, a beautiful soul.
For Amanda, died August 13, 2005
in a car accident, you are remembered.
Why do I post in memory of...a question
easy to answer but almost impossible
to find words.
Amanda touched me as few people have.
Her heart is one of the most beautiful.
Richard.

from a friend in Australia, updated
Contract for each & every year.
After serious & cautious consideration......
your contract of friendship has been
renewed for the New Year.
It was a very hard decision to make.
So try not to screw it up!!!
My Wish for You May peace break into your house
and may thieves come to steal your debts.
May the pockets of your jeans become
a magnet of $100 bills.
May love stick to your face like Vaseline
and may laughter assault your lips!
May your clothes smell of success
like smoking tires
and may happiness slap you across the face
and may your tears be that of joy.
May the problems you had forget your
home address!
In simple words ............
May every year be the best!!!
Sincerely, Richard O.

My last post "Blogs in the News"
re: "A Gay Girl in Damascus"

The Gay Girl is FICTION.

The last post the writer tries
to give reasons for the blog.
He sounds as if he still does
not realize how wrong he was.
The following was posted June 13, 2011

13 June 2011
Apology to readers
Statement Regarding the Gay Girl in Damascus Blog
Tom MacMaster
Istanbul, June 13, 2011
I am the sole author of this blog and have always
been so. Any and all posts on the blog are by me.
Before I say anything else, I want to apologize
to anyone I may have hurt or harmed in any way.
I never meant to hurt anyone..."
----------------------------------------------
I hope the writer, Tom MacMaster,
did make up the Gay Girl in Damascus.
If the blog is true, what better way for a country to
get the world to loose interest: 'this girl never was'

While many blogs are in the news the one listed
is the blog of a women from Damascus, Syria.
Amina, is a citizen of Syria & the USA.

The men are assumed to be members of one of the security
services or the Baath Party militia. Amina’s present
location is unknown and it is unclear if she is in a jail
or being held elsewhere in Damascus.
You can read the updates at her blog.
