Straight to Jesus

Yanya's book is out in June:
Straight to Jesus: "Erzen is sensitive, savvy, and provocative. Her mastery of historical sources, ethnographic technique, and accessible writing style are evident throughout. She illuminates aspects of conservative Christianity central to the 'culture wars,' deepening our understanding of the movement's internal struggles over sexuality, gender, and family issues. Erzen has written a wonderful book.'"

Luna tells all.: Seven wild pigs and a baby

the latest from katie, this time from la selva

Luna tells all.: Seven wild pigs and a baby: "That first day I felt so strange and different and voyeuristic- watching them clean the pigs in the river, feeding the entrails to the pyrannah, letting their kids play with the stretchy skin of the intestines and the little pig fetuses that came out of a pregnant sow. I couldn�t imagine connection emerging between our different worlds and languages, but it did, miraculously it did."

Hey folks, I know you have all been dying to know so
here it is:

My parasite has a first name, it's
B-L-A-S-T-O-C-Y-S-T-I-S
My parasite has a last name, it's H-O-M-I-N-I-S

Oh we like to hang out every day but the fun is coming
to an end and the reason why I'll
say......................



Cause Flagil really has a way with killing parasites
in my gut starting TODAY!!!

Yes, it's true, the diagnosis is in and I did in fact
have a parasite! I start taking Flagil in a few hours
and our time together will be over.

Kisses to you all!
Love,
Sarah
