Because some news stories fade and die before we see them...

Chicago Man Arrested for Allegedly Targeting Obama With HIV-Infected Blood

"A man from President Obama's hometown of Chicago has been arrested for allegedly sending Obama and his staff envelopes containing HIV-infected blood, in the hopes of killing or harming them.

It's only the second time ever that HIV-infected blood has been sent with malicious intent through the U.S. mail system, a spokesman for the U.S. Postal Inspection Service said." [Full Fox News story here]

I wanted to believe this was some redneck backwoods bubba who didn't get the memo that we're supposed to be living in a post-racial America (cough::bullshit::cough). But alas, it turns out to be an Ethiopian refugee named Saad Hussein. And according to his priors, he's just a little ~~insane in the membrane~~ touched.

Yeah yeah. I know I just breezed in here with an odd news story waaaaaaay after I promised to update more often. I've been busy. Fo'real. I have projects going on every-frickin-where -- from web jobs to the anonymous blog that the Mr. and I finally started.

But I love to talk. And I love to write. And although I may take down my badly neglected health/cleansing blog, Fackin Truth is the first love I just can't stand to part with.

So don't be a ninny and just check back soon to make sure I'm keepin it fresh with ma first love.

What's funny, but sad is that I didn't know this happened until I read your post, so this IS news worth reading. *lol*

I do look forward to another getting yourself together post soon.

Love to live; live to love!
