Loved your post. I am all pleased with myself that I got a shout out! You don't know how that can pick up an old girl's day. Big love to you, Eli and DeSuza.

Operation Goat
I'm so glad to hear Operation Goat is making progress. It gives me hope for Timothy and Bernice, (and children).

Good Samaritan
I just wanted to commend you for taking the boy in that night. Many would say it was foolish, but sometimes we have to listen to our heart and just have faith. May God bless you for your generous, loving spirit.

lover of goats
I don't know Lish. I just don't know what I would have done. Despite everything I've learned, in my gut I feel like I would have wanted to help and I probably would have done the same thing. In the moment, he's still a hungry little boy who needs a place to sleep. And if I had shelter and a bit of food I would probably want to share it. It's good that you contacted someone who could help after. I hope that you're not only looked at as the one people can go to because you're the 'white rich girl'. I'm happy to hear that you're enjoying your community and that despite only being there for a few weeks people are letting you into their lives. That's wonderful! :) In regard to the goat... I think it's best that you connect with them. Maybe write a song for them and while you're sharing a grassy meal sing them a 'why can't we be friends' ditty. Love you mango!! xoxo

Your friends are hilarious. Particularly that Miss Jay. So any further blow back from the kid situation? That is really a tough one. I don't know what I would have done in the same situation. Probably the same as you. A kid is a kid. Now, this information I found on wikipedia may assist you in knowing your goat: Goats are extremely curious and intelligent. They are easily trained to pull carts and walk on leads. Ches McCartney, nicknamed "the goat man", toured the United States for over three decades in a wagon pulled by a herd of pet goats. They are also known for escaping their pens. Goats will test fences, either intentionally or simply because they are handy to climb on. If any of the fencing can be spread, pushed over or down, or otherwise be overcome, the goats will escape. Being very intelligent, once a weakness in the fence has been exploited, it will be repeatedly exploited until they determine it can no longer be overcome. Goats are very coordinated and can climb and hold their balance in the most precarious places. Goats are also widely known for their ability to climb trees, although the tree generally has to be on somewhat of an angle.

Fascination
What an experience! Talking with Hugo definitly sounds epic. A conversation dealing with socialism, Plato's cave, change and raising consiousness would be amazing with anyone, but especially a passionate leader. Sounds like an incredible night!

a goat, a goat, it's like a root beer float... first, you have to think of sheep. once you realize that sheep is pronounced Hseep(z) and not SH-EE-P, you will see that a goat is really on a boat. thus, you can make friends with one by rowing your own boat (gently down the you-know-what) beside the goat's and saying "blueberry mush, i have a crush, where's the bobby?"* i'll add more when i see you. i love you, your face and your blog entries. * barbie.

Don't matter if you're...
Hey gay white girl, Interesting to hear you address my previous question about culture obliquely in this entry. Still curious about how your heritage has formed you--for example, when you say you don't identify as white, how does that change your outlook on things? As a white male, oppressor extreme, (Jewish, but therefore only an invisible minority, a plainclothes ethnic) I remember when I was in Taiwan, and had my white status thrust in my face on a constant basis. I was a visitor in their country, and they were hell-bent on treating me like a guest. It was a little embarrassing. I certainly didn't feel privileged or rich. I occasionally had conversations about my discomfort; the Taiwanese were surprised: don't you treat guests in a special way? It took me a few moments to realize that in Canada, it's impossible to tell the "guests" from the third- or fourth-generation Canadians. And as for the nose-ring, let me know about the verdict. It's always good to know the gender-preferences of your promised one. ; )

to befriend a goat, you must become a goat. look deep inside and summon your inner goat. first, do a pencil roll to the fridge. now, throw a slice of gross warm kraft sliced cheese at the wall. now, bang your head against the cheese-sliced wall. you are ready.

Eli and I were definitely in quite a few pictures but we have no idea where they are!? We searched the net, to no avail. Somewhere out there (probably on facebook) there are photos of us with Hugo Chavez. Eli says: Boner.

Yeah, I'm coming to learn that DeSuza and Azilla are pretty much holding down the fort here. They work so, so hard. I'm also learning that development can be highly bureaucratic - lots of lovely red tape to get through.
