Well, sitting in solidarity. You know what I mean. Maybe everybody should fast until this is all over? In solidarity. Can somebody get that meme out via twitter?

7. right, get all weak so if we decided to go out in the streets we are all ready to faint?
most people do not know how to fast, and the health effects can be severe if not done properly. better to eat well, get your house in order, and edumacate yourselves.

13. I'm not, but I remember Condi Rice buying shoes and going to a Broadway show during the Katrina

15. Empty gesture
I am not going to sacrifice my health for nothing.

How about writing news organizations, politicians, movie stars or organizing protests outside the Iranian embassies? Perhaps keep the conversation going in coffee houses and shisha bars (I am in Qatar and I LOVE shisha - hookah - bars)?

Starving yourself does no one any good unless perhaps you donate the money that you would have spent to their cause.


Lastly....dear god...why Twitter? Do you really need the whole freaking world to know what you had for breakfast? Sorry...not attacking you...I am sort of a Luddite.
