I love dolls
Sunday, May 3rd, 2009I was doing a search for interesting pictures and stumbled upon the most beautiful, interesting dolls. The workmanship is exquisite. I love that they have joints and can be posed in so many ways.
Oh but for the lack of funds, I would own many of these…

100th Post!!
Saturday, May 2nd, 2009Happy 100th post crowgyrls! =)
We still haven’t had many join us, pity. But the gyrls we have are fantastic!!! We have covered many topics–passionate to blasé. A Presidential campaign, an African-American President voted in, two animal flus and everything in between. =) We can only hope the next 100 posts will keep us thinking, researching and growing.
Redheads & Gingers: Myths and Facts
Friday, May 1st, 2009We’ve all heard that blondes are dumb, brunettes are smart and dependable, and that curly-haired women are unhinged , but of all the hair stereotypes out there, no one suffers more injustice than redheads do.
This article was sent to me by a friend because well, I am a redhead. =) I have noticed we often get a bad rap. In movies redheads tend to be evil. They lie, cheat, connive and hurt others. They are selfish. They are often the villainous sexpots out to gain power or money. Or we are portrayed as hideous or ridiculous Ronald McDonald-esque freaks–smothered in freckles. Cartman from Southpark started a Hitler-like movement against “gingers” becausehe believes Gingers are “disgusting, inhuman, inherently dumb, have no souls, and are unable to survive in the sunlight. The second class of Gingers according to Cartman are the “day walkers” who have red hair but not pale skin or freckles.
Someone even declared a “National Kick a Ginger Day”. (Bring it on retards! I’ll show you the crimson wrath!)
Judas, the great betrayer of Jesus, was said to be a redhead…as was Mary. Literature is littered with references to our inherent evil nature.
What is true is we are unique, rare. We are the least common hair color and this makes us different. And it makes a lot of other people idiotic in their reactions to us. Studies have proven we are harder to sedate before surgery and are more likely to feel pain in general.
Redheads are often given nicknames, some are simple like red, carrot top and crimson, others are rude like tampon-top and fire crotch. People do not have so many nicknames for other hair colors.
Well, what do you call a redhead with an attitude? Normal. =) See, we are capable of laughing at ourselves but can’t we all just get along?
