I read this post with such shame for the way this man has been treated for so many years. It's a shame for fellow human beings who've chosen to treat him with less respect than they would give to an animal. I'm only one person, but I will speak out to anyone who will listen and will write on behalf of the unfairness he's been subjected to for so many years, (regardless of whether there is belief in his guilt). The most critical fact to understand about capital punishment is that we, the USA, have placed ourselves in the company of Iraq, North Korea, Saudi Arabia and China as countries that execute the most inmates. That is nothing - ABSOLUTELY NOTHING - to be proud of and should make all Americans shamed and devastated with the association. I send my personal wishes for peace and sincere hope to Mr. Rose and would like him to know he is not forgotten.
I have just finished transcribing your blog, and I find it really interesting. It's really nice from you to not only appreciate Taylor Momsen's appearance but her ideas. Nice job :)
Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post. It was really good, and I'm glad that you decided to write a blog. I hope that you keep on doing it. It is truly inspiring. I would like to express my sincere condolences to you; your friend will never be forgotten.

Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!

What's a motto?

He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal He could clear the savannah after every meal
I'm a sensitive soul though I seem thick-skinned And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind And oh, the shame He was ashamed Thought of changin' my name What's in a name? And I got downhearted How did ya feel? Everytime that I...
Hey! Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids! Oh. Sorry
Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze
Hakuna matata is a Swahili phrase that can be translated literally as "no worries." Its meaning is similar to the English phrase "no problem" and is akin to "don't worry, be happy". The phrase is uncommon among native speakers of Swahili in Tanzania, who prefer the phrase "hamna shida" in the north and "hamna tabu" in the south. The phrase has been popularized by its use in The Lion King and Timon & Pumbaa (TV series), so that it is heard often at resorts, hotels and other places appealing to the tourist trade. Furthermore the phrase is in more common use in Zanzibar and Kenya.
Hi Jack.............I am truly sorry for the loss of your friend. Loss does not recognize razor wire and bars. We all feel that pain at some time.
Words will not turn back the clock and you already know all that can be said to try to ease your suffering.
Just know that your life is already richer for the letters, memories and love afforded to you by Wendy. You would be much poorer without them. She is now at peace and I'm sure that she would want you to recognize and embrace that to help you as you try to come to terms with her loss.
