Wow...I am so happy that you are no longer in Venezuela, but boy do I pray for the people there.

Wonder is Sean Penn 'walked' alone anywhere?

I thought that Israel was the #1 danger to world peace!

In South Africa, you'd be scared to walk outside your house, let alone a kilometer.

jungle mom, they should add to New Zealand to the list! There's no where here I'd walk 100 metres alone at night, this really isn't a safe country anymore.
