• Okay, I think the initial shock of Harvest Moon DS has finally worn off and I am ready to return to my regular posting.

  Today's post is going to be about something that happened about a week ago, but due to certain circumstances, I never got around to it. It's called the "strike of the crossed legs." Let me explain. It seems the girlfriends of Colombian gang-bangers are fed up with the violence, so they decided to hit their squeezes where it hurts. Right in the genitals. Not literally... figuratively, man! Several girlfriends are calling a ban on sex until their boyfriends give up the gun. There is now a weapon that can actually be more powerful than the military. While they can raid gang compounds or take out leaders, there will always be others to fill the power vacuum. But once sex is cut out of the picture, suddenly gang lifestyle doesn't seem all that appealing.
  Several things could go wrong in this ban, however. I'm sure that rape rates will skyrocket in Colombia until this ban is "lifted." Also, it's possible (I'm guessing) that real jobs don't pay nearly as much as gang-related jobs. Selling a single bag of coke probably nets more than I make in two weeks. (Please note: I did no research whatsoever, and am just guessing about the market value of cocaine.) I'm sure there are also plenty of prostitutes out there who aren't going to pay any attention to the ban when there are vast quantities of money to be made. Still, I gotta give those girls credit for trying. Peace out.
