    Having spent today reading "Possessing the Secret of Joy" and feeling my throat tighten and tears gather under my lids umpteen dozen times, I was unprepared for this suddden spate of humor. I'm drying tears of empathy for Tashi and a few generated by laughter at myself, who just recently learned to drive at 55 and acquired my first cell phone last year.

    I love the body of work of Alice Walker and they should seriously consider giving her the Nobel Prize for Litterature.

    Havent you got it already? Anyone who does not support the israeli apartheid and ethnic cleansing is an antisemite. Sick world, especially when palestinians ARE semites and most jews are NOT, they are ashkenazi from khaazaria.

    She wants peace for everyone...just like Jesus Christ. Those that make Jesus a pig?
