Fenian's up there in the SU stratosphere: sharp, serious and a regular finder of unique sites.

The horror. . . The horror. . . (Just kidding!) Fenian sent me this audio clip from 'Apocaplypse Now!' after I reviewed him.

I am continually amazed at what Fenian contributes to his blog and the stumble sites. I am always seeing his name as the finder of sites I love. Thanks FENIAN!

From counting back, I believe Fenian was my 5,000th visitor. He's got a great SU page that's well-worth visiting often.

An impressive photographic display that teaches as well as it awes.

Fenian has an eye for black and white/historical photography, and focusses on New York. This colour image (offered as his Christmas Greeting), therefore, stood out. I don't really want to comment, but only encourage contemplation. I feel compelled to tell my story about that wall, though. Cycling through New Zealand during the summer of 2003/2004 I met some beautiful Israeli nationals in a youth hostel. After an hour or two of their company, food and humour, we realised we were all nurses! One of them was a neuro-surgical nurse, who told me of her experience caring for a young woman (unusually) evacuated to their high-tech hospital in Israel from the other side of that wall (Palestine), and was seemingly too injured ever to recover. I was just so proud to be a nurse, listening to the impartiallity and love with which a person from 'the enemy' side had been cared for. Because of the exceptional care and exceptional strength of the patient, the patient was eventually discharged. I think it pretty likely that this may have been the same patient that I had seen during a documentary screened in Australia in the months before: United States of America nationals, active practitioners of the Jewish faith, had gone to work with a Palestinian community to bear witness to the madness that is bulldozers collapsing houses and snipers picking off (and killing) real people as THAT wall is constructed. One of those American girls suffers a closed head injury, just like the locals do. At the Palestinian hospital obviously very competent medical staff explain that they cannot provide the definitive care this lady needs, because they do not have the equipment or resources. They must basically leave her to die, as they would a local Palastinian person, unless they can convince Israeli authorities to accept her. A flurry of phone calls ensues. Hours later, with intervention of ambassadors and similar folk, the injured woman (now intubated, and artificially ventillated) is loaded into an ambulance and driven to the 'border'. There are some awkard moments because each side is wary that this may be a set-up...will they be blown up or shot at? Isn't it a small and special world we live in? Why do we, the human race, sometimes spend so much energy making life difficult and miserable for each other?
