So I've had some luck with the Africa research, although most of it continues to point to the negative. How hard it is to find some evidence saying that the natural resource depletion in Africa is not all due to Africans, but that the western world is one of the primary reasons that said resources are extracted at such high rates? Well, evidently it's harder than I thought.
Nothing terribly exciting. I've mostly been researching, unsuccessfully. Today however, I'm really excited to take a 12 hr break. That's right, I'm a nerd and there is a Lord of the Rings marathon today at college with free food and a free t-shirt for those who survive it. I'm totally getting a free t-shirt.
Random: when people have to go to school they say "I'm going to college" not school or the university, but rather college. I kind of love it.
Another random, in Irish we learned how to order from the bar. Although Irish is VERY different from English and other languages in many respects, ordering from the bar isn't too hard at all. For example: Pionta Guinneass, cupán tae, cupán caifé, gloina uisce (that one is actually not whiskey but water. In Irish, ¨whiskey¨is water of life¨). That was your Irish lesson for the day, enjoy!
