I went viral on Twitter

  @malchera. In Peru two women were tortured and beaten for witchcraft this week.

I was surfing twitter and I noted one of the Peruvian E-Girls I follow-complaining about the Ronderos 

I thought this is odd-as they mostly post in favor of the government/Fujimori side with regard to the internal conflict 

There were graphic pictures on Twitter- of the women- Who were mostly over 40 years of age . These poor people had been assaulted- Left to dangle on a rope in a large barn as a  method of torture

Several people got sick or died in their villages

Song for today ``There’s gotta be more…’’

I am borrowing this content for a moment.

I don't know why I actually possess this picture. School Photographs, now there is racket. They take you out of class, and take your picture, and charge you for the picture. Anyway, my mother never paid for the school photographer. She had 4 children in the same school,  and paying for 4 photographs, would not have been cheap. I do remember the day though. Before me, the busty Kelly Panei, had gone first. The photographer had made a crack about beauty and the beast, so I knocked over his stand on the way out... But for years after, this was my mental image of myself...
