HUNTINGTON BEACH — A 10-year-old Southern California girl has died after getting her last wish: to see the movie "Up."
Colby Curtin of Huntington Beach had advanced vascular cancer and couldn't watch the Disney-Pixar movie in a theater. Her mother says Colby desperately wanted to see the animated film about a man who flies off in his house to fulfill a dream after his wife's death.
A friend managed to contact Pixar, and on June 10 a company employee arrived with a DVD copy at Colby's house. Colby's mother says she asked her daughter if she could hang on until it arrived. The girl said she was ready to die but added: "I'm going to wait for the movie." By then, Colby couldn't open her eyes but her mother described the scenes.
Colby died that night.



If you are not in tears you are a sad, cold person.

Finally.

It seemed as if this day would never come. For what feels like an eternity I have looked forward to this day. Not "forward" as in just looking ahead in time but more in tune with looking forward to a new vision, a new date with destiny. Now I sit waiting for the somewhat official results to pour in affirming what I have known for almost a year and a half...A great man will now lead us with his intelligence and compassion. He will lead us with his patience and his wisdom. Understanding that never again will we have this chance, the chance to either save or loose the greatest gift ever known to man. A gift know as The United States of America. In my short lifetime our nation has fallen from the most revered country on earth to a simply mediocre democracy that long ago lost its way. I absolutely could not care less who is to blame, I only know who is destined to repair this broken fragile experiment we call freedom. He will succeed because he must, he will succeed for he truly u

Here comes more terror.

Everyone needs to pay attention to the current renewed hype over labeling Iran as a terrorist group...that is the way Bush created the current war in Iraq. With the new laws after 9/11 it allows the President to bypass congress more than ever and allows him to hide more information and detain those they deem "Enemy Combatants"(until the federal courts decide what an acceptable time limit should be). If I could stress just one thing it would be... EVERYTHING is related....

Wake up Stupid Asses !!!

Well it seems as if the "hope" I tried to maintain for the future of our nation and how it will relate to the rest of the world is fading fast. Everyone I meet and speak to these days has either given up, or has no clue about what is happening around them in our country. Gone are the days when citizens questioned their leaders, instead we simply accept as fact whatever we are told on CNN or to whatever outlet we may subscribe. Over the last twenty years or so we have become a nation all about "ME" or "I", what can I get or what about ME. What happened to humanity? We will step over a homeless man to get to a Starbucks. Contrary to popular thought, (Which is how people make themselves feel better for being greedy heartless assholes) all homeless are NOT there because they WANT to be...if you think that you are a fucking idiot. Even if half were there because they wanted to be that still leaves way to fucking many that don't want to be, you fucking moron
