KANSAS CITY, Mo. — When shots rang out at a basketball game at a local community center Friday, one of the players risked injury to save a 6-year-old boy.

A really good story of a teenager who saved a six year old’s life from gunfire. A must-read.

I’ve decided that it would be a good idea for me to place my poems on a new site called “Lavo’s Poetry Vault”. I’ll try to post poems there on a weekly basis, with the first poem after the introduction being posted on Friday. I’m hoping a dedicated poem blog will allow me to better organize my poetry.

Go take a look!

This is just some short commentary on some things that have crossed my mind today.

Banning trans-fats: I’m all for it. They’re bad for you, and they shouldn’t be used in foods if their use can easily be avoided. Hopefully that gets through all of Massachusetts.

Illegal Immigrants getting In-State Tuition: I don’t agree that they should get the same tuition that we should. We pay taxes. They don’t.

Take Your Pants Off Saturday: I guess a group of people are going to get on the T this Saturday from 3 to 6 PM without pants on. The MBTA knows and says it should not be a problem as long as people pay their fare and don’t cause any trouble. As long as no one’s harmed, right?

And the bonus:
“Lost my Phone” Facebook Groups: The “lost my phone” Facebook groups are beginning to become too much. How many people lose their phone in a day? Are people beginning to do this for fun?
