ok, it looks like today is my last day until my membership expires. i will be back, oh yes. i will be back.
in the meantime:
watch Family Guy & South Park
update yer journals with LOTS of pictures (and post some nakey ones too!)
bookmark the following journals: Manko & Candylac
the next time you pay a toll, pay for the car behind you
and that's about it for now. oh, yeah, SPREAD THE WORD ON GETTING YOUR PET FIXED! No, for seriously, last year like 6,500 cats & dogs had to be killed in Polk County (not euthanized, KILLED, euthanized sounds too nice for what's actually being done). you can probably go to the SPCA website and see their prices. And I think April 25th is Holocaust Remembrance Day (Yom Hashoah). Don't forget to remember!!!!!

Since Yom Hashoah is a relatively new holiday, there are no set rules or rituals. What kind of ritual could represent the Holocaust?
There are various beliefs about what is and is not appropriate on this day - and many of them are conflicting. In general, Yom Hashoah has been observed with candlelighting, speakers, poems, prayers, and singing. Often, six candles are lighted to represent the six million. Holocaust survivors speak about their experiences or share in the readings. Some ceremonies have people read from the Book of Names for certain lengths of time in an effort to remember those that died and to give an understanding of the huge number of victims. Sometimes these ceremonies are held in a cemetery or near a Holocaust memorial.
In Israel, the Knesset made Yom Hashoah a national public holiday in 1959 and in 1961 a law was passed that closed all public entertainment on Yom Hashoah. At ten in the morning, a siren is sounded where everyone stops what they are doing, pull over in their cars, and stand in remembrance.
In whatever form you observe Yom Hashoah, the memory of the Jewish victims will live on.
PEACE, and I'm outtie!!!!!
