Just a big stinky breath away

I find it fascinating that certain celebrities are quoted in major news outlets for saying really obscure and very generic things. Take Sharon Stone for example, who is in Paris promoting women's rights. Here's what she had to say about peace in the Middle East: "It feels to me that we have an opportunity ... to choose understanding in a new way. ...It's just an agreement that's just a breath. We are not far apart. We can choose to have this alternative kind of growth that is a collective nuance of understanding." How profound.

Well, preach on, sista. Let's have that collective nuance of understanding. But Sharon should probably realize that a simple agreement to not kill each other isn't going to do a whole lot until certain cultures stop teaching hate in kindergarten. Peace is not just a breath away.

She goes on to say "This is a new and very exciting time for women, because women by their very nature are creative and not destructive. And this is an extraordinary and important thing that we can bring into a world that awaits the opportunity for peace."

She obviously hasn't met my girl friends. They're as destructive as they get. And it's all-natural. You just can't teach that kind of destruction.
