crackheads are secretly, frequently (fond of each other)

Happy Birthday Peace Corps. On this day in 1961 a United States President named Kennedy from a long lost (nearly extinct) party signed a new agency into the Department of State, the U.S. Peace Corps. The agency's purpose was to forment peace, understanding, and development aid in countries all over the world.
The initial reactions to the Peace Corps proposal are convincing proof that we have, in this country, an immense reservoir of such men and women--anxious to sacrifice their energies and time and toil to the cause of world peace and human progress.- President John F. Kennedy
Today there are more U.S. Peace Corps volunteers in more countries than ever before, teaching English, assisting in business development, farming fish, building public health facilities, and a whole lot more. Kids fresh out of college, post-yuppies in middle age crises, and the newly retired all take part in Peace Corps volunteer efforts.
Today I add not one but TWO FEMALES to my blogroll, one is a fellow Cheesehead lesbian like me: Miss Sarah Jean Smith.
And in this age of attention whoring blogs, server stat obsession and competitions to see who can be the meanest, it's nice to see Jennie return to blogging. Her writing is...interesting. She's a blogging ancient, fyi, from an age where people just wrote about stuff and weren't always trying to angle a paying blog gig by re-linking groupings of old news items or striving to be pundit du jour. People just wrote stuff. Like creative and stuff.
