Yes! Yes! Yes! Help in education: so much better than a loan!

More photos here. Maybe you don't care about these things, but I do. These are nigerian children getting familiar with their new 100 dollars laptops. This is good news for everyone!
One of my dreams is setting up business schools for children in my country of origin, Uruguay. One day I'll also be able to help like this.
What Nicholas Negroponte and his team have achieved is admirable. It doesn't matter if the effort may be tainted by corruption in some receiving countries, it's always been so. It doesn't matter if some computers don't get to these children. It doesn't matter if they may even have a higher final cost than initially expected.
The important thing is that people in developed countries are taking notice of these realities.
The important thing is that now these children and their families will have a completely different future. Imagine! And this is good news for every person on earth.
The waves of equality are slowly but surely spreading around the world. Great!
Thank you Bono, Bill Gates, Angelina Jolie and all the rest that do such a valuable job where it matters the most: putting the pressure on the wealthy by showing these realities, so ealisly ignored. That's the most effective work that can be done to change the world. What you do is priceless. In the name of all of us, thanks to everyone involved in making the lives of others better in any way.

Are Gods the problem or the solution? (have a good laugh!)

God. I just couldn't stop laughing. I am not sure that I would like to ge a religion teacher today, and have to explain these kind of things to kids. But then again, if they're confused, it is because you are making them confused, so, what's the solution?
Anyway, if you want to laugh, see a lot more of these at friend.ac .
Also hilarious these ones found at Scribd.com, "they didn't study". There are so many good ones that i wouldn't know where to start from.

I was particularly impressed by this piece of literary art from Jeremy Levin (below). I would like to meet this guy. I am sure he has more interesting conversation than most adults I know. And his conversation may make more sense too. You have to really read his essay below.
As a Spanish speaker and latin person myself, I already started laughing hard when I read "El Nino is Spanish. It is the Spanish word for child. Like all things Spanish, it is dangerous" God. That was a great start, don't you think?! I didn't know we are inherently dangerous! But well, one learns something every day, they say. I also learned that:

"Warm water usually builds up. But not anymore with El Nino. El Nino moves the warm water from Australia to somewhere else, namely to other places. (...) These other places are to the east. Of the water"

Even on these small print, you have to make the effort and read it. On this essay author Jeremy Lavine also advocates for the utilization of less scientific and more God-oriented methods to fight climate change. He seems to recommend -for our future human sacrifices- to particularly pay attention to placate the acummulated but lately ignored anger of Peruvian gods. I think we should all pay attention to his words. For me, it makes more sense than many things I am hearing in the media everyday...
