beef and jim o's being produced why does the span have such a very narrow narrow focus in fact when you look at all the things that americans consume smoke use that destroy our health some get the violent band hammer while others are completely tolerated if you ever talk to a hardcore marijuana smoker they'll tell you but dude we does better for you than beer and that's legal man and they kind of have a point i think there is this is one of those rare instances where a balance position isn't really a good idea well the country could go the libertarian route and let it be everything be legal let people make their own choices or do what i think would be much much better actually really bad all the things that are destructive to our health both of these paths have positive and negative effects but they are a lot better than our current plan of bans some harmful things for some reason and allow other harmful things because while they lobby better but that's just my opinion.

1:39 pm
the streets from morning to night leningrad population has decreased dramatically almost two million people have already died. i visited our neighbor today her father died yesterday she was wrapped in a sheet and taken away in a sled. my only distraction now is my books. but we delivered books that the wards had quite often i would read to the wounded soldiers. nativity. there's a book once i went to one ward and said well what should i read which they said anything but nothing about war yet you still have it so i decided to read pushkin as if getting an egg into them at that was a delight he writes about a duel and that one of the soldiers said you promise to read nothing about war these two have just shot each other oh that was quite awkward.
1:40 pm
and the hospital today i wanted soldier told me that if you had died they would have told me by now. neither food nor letters can get through this siege just be sure to survive i will wait for you i have all your pictures my most treasured possessions. appeared in the sky i did my first royal from the window with arctic air to me gold and this is where the sphinx is can be say i'm new here in my sketchpad woods. we have to cover the sphincters with wooden boards look alike i drew a sketch about that to me it's called the view from the arctic out of the window. today is my birthday today i thought full dad brought two small frozen any ends
1:41 pm
and a hundred grams of raisins his whole ration. mom cooked noodles and mixed oil and bull down eons with. the noodles were lovely and grease. the ne and completely had the taste of grease the first course was jelly made from. mom brought home one hundred fifty grams of meat today what a pleasure it was to eat just a little meat i tried to make it last as long as i possibly could it was such bliss i just want to eat eat and eat but most importantly we are still all together and ana my mom dad and me. another spring in leningrad i used to love it and now i hate it so much it brings no love anymore only death. starlit nights just look like a mass grave. another summer without you. for
1:42 pm
a whole year i haven't received a single letter from you. i know you cannot be alive anymore i will never be happy again. in the spring asylum. in april all the people of leningrad went out to clean the city streets we were expecting an epidemic because the dead were everywhere and there was a roll sewage flowing past houses because the sewage system was not working. so they told everybody to go out and clean up the city and everybody did. that even those who could barely hold a tool in their hands went out to break up the ice. leningrad became so clean it was a real joy to see it. in may the
1:43 pm
trans started working again. i will never forget this day i can't believe dad is gone. news of his death was too sad and. even today this morning we talked about him thinking he was alive remembering different things about him. we were happy that he looked relatively well. it turned out though that by then he was already gone. i cannot believe he's gone it can't be how i wanted to be a mistake it's hard it's terrible we didn't even say goodbye. a few days ago i broke my mare into pieces i was waiting for a disaster and my fears came true in the most horrible way. i cry all the time.
1:44 pm
there was nobody with it was buried in a mass grave. there's a war on for a piece of the mud pie yes the government is doling out some maggot infested pieces of mud pie benefit slop and the peasant voters are beating each other up trying to grab a slice or two and if that fails then they try to deprive their neighbor of his unfair piece of the mud pie but while tax revolt austerity riots capture the public's imagination in secret back rooms in europe and america trade deals are currently being negotiated which will impose a so-called investor state upon us all. exactly what happened i don't know but
1:45 pm
a woman killed. piers later is when i got arrested. for a crime or did not do. we have numerous cases where police officers lie about polygraph results. and people to consider the police officers don't beat people anymore i mean it just doesn't happen really. in the course of interrogation why because there's been this is like meant no because the psychological techniques are more effective in obtaining confessions than physical abuse they were they could do what they wanted they could say what they wanted and there was no evidence of what they did or what they said. is obviously more for the latest because it's a pain. when they wanted to avoid rate they really need to buy guns environ how to
1:46 pm
use them. this is the one that i want to go away from once again it's the fear of france. definitely a target of the gun lobby and you don't kill them when you're killing but even if somebody would you would piss with her. i've noticed it more or if it's really scary marketing tactics which i thought women have some sort of moral obligation to protect their family young girls shoot out here too so we do have a pink wife. or kids young kids choke on food than are killed by firearms if being armed made us safer in america we should be the safest nation on earth we're clearly not the safest. my mum was very ill. one day dad said we were not going to the bomb
1:47 pm
shelter. that night there was incredibly heavy bombing. it was a direct hit on that very shelter and everyone was buried underneath you nobody survived and more. people were too exhausted even to remove the rubble and it was so cold. the temperature was still degrees below zero. and it didn't get any better but if you blurred the mud the entire month of january february and march it was so cold thirty to forty degrees below should we could never even at the fire go out water would freeze instantly. we took the slats over to but couldn't prospect we put little buckets on to the slats there was a hole in the ice close to the riverbank. sometimes we went there to get water.
1:48 pm
it was easy to lose the buckets when we climbed back up the embankment but i q the water would say. blusher will do remark of the buckets or. pulling those sleds was very difficult because the ground was completely frozen yellow. but still we kept going and taking those two buckets back home now what we drag that water and use it to wash there was nowhere else to get it and. the bombing is not as bad as the starvation and. i'm so then starvation has caused mom stomach to swell she's in the hospital. i will not see her again. the doctors say she won't survive. my dear mom i can't leave you i don't want to live without you i'm all alone.
1:49 pm
mommy. childless i spent new year's eve of nine hundred forty three alone it was very difficult. we had three separate apartments joined by a long corridor but all of them were empty because everyone had been evacuated so i was alone in three apartments you simply were boards e.l.o. as it was dark because we had no electricity or no electricity no water. there was no heat. and we had no firewood either yet wolf. the worst has happened i am sick i can't stand up and i'm freezing they're breaking up wooden houses and leningrad outside it is thirty degrees below inside it's only minus ten . water freezes in doors every day go by tram to the demolished houses
1:50 pm
i just have the energy to carry a single small plank i'm not using the firewood just. in case mom suddenly comes back. as he should use a course to let me see her in hospital yeah i went expecting to see her round puffy face. for you but i just saw a skinny woman in the my mom was my dear mom that she looked so thin like there. i'm so happy i have recovered i've been back on my feet for two days when i saw myself and then there i was scared i saw a completely unfamiliar old and skeletal face i now look at least thirty but that doesn't matter even if i do look like a skeleton the most important thing is i'm not sick.
1:51 pm
