The Next Step

I've made the decision not to return to China. I strongly believe it's for the best. Right now I need to focus on staying healthy mentally and being around people I love. So I'm finally moving back to Southern California. I have no idea what I'm going to do or where I'm going to live, but I know things will work out. If anyone has any leads or anything, I'd really appreciate it. I'll be in the L.A. area all next week to scout things out and visit with people. I also have to figure out what I'm going to do for a car and stuff as well. Not to mention my very large medical bills from being here at Link Care. I'm hoping my supporters can help me out in that. Also, if anyone has a sample resume they're willing to send to me so I can get mine started, I would really appreciate it.

Adding images

Luis brings up a good point. We haven't really explained how to add images in b2e. It's very easy. When you're writing your post, just click the 'img' button. It will ask you for the url of the image and generate the code for you. B2e requires xhtml compliant code, so if you're not sure how to do that, then use the formatting buttons above the post area. If you need to upload an image from your hard drive, click on 'Upload a file/image' below the posting area. After you've uploaded your file you'll be given the option of adding the right code to your post. As of now you can't use the img tag in a comment. I'm working on tweaking the html checker to allow img tags, but in the meantime you can post a link to an image in a comment or make a new post.

*cough*

And why the hell won't b2e let me post a picture? It kept telling me that there was some parser error, and then I tried posting it in the comments, and it didn't appear.

Group of 30 black kids, attack four white females over a basketball court

Witnesses say the attackers were all black and called their victims “white crackers” during the bloody melee, which raged for almost 20 minutes.

“This is not being looked at as a bias crime,” NYPD Deputy Inspector Kevin McGinn said at the meeting.

They called them "white crackers," screamed "black power," were all black, and only attacked white people.

Not racially bias at all.

Now if 30 white kids went and beat up 4 black chicks, there'd be a damn near uprising, and a hell of a lot of backlash, rallies and people complaining.

Plain View Extra

This weekend I had an opportunity to talk to grandma some about some family history. I hope to do more of these oral history type things. Here's the first.

How great great grandpa came to America.
