Sasha's commentary for 18 February 2013

I haven't done one of these because I've been dreaming about a girl...story of my life!

M'kay, so, some really unusual things are happening in this world.

Lady Gaga tore something in her hips or something, and now has a wheelchair. Her cancelled tour will be missed. I gotta say though, Emma is a cute name for a wheelchair. I was thinking Molly for some reason.

Harry Styles of One Direction is now (very brief though) discussing her breakup. So, if Taylor Swift could date an 18-year-old and she's 23, can we not have a double standard. Of course, my brother's girlfriend's parents dread that their 18-year-old is going out with a 22 year old. I think we still live in a world where a young lady of the college age group dating someone older than 21 is creepy.

Travis Barker, of Blink 182, is afraid to fly and it's understandable, but also doesn't make sense, considering the fact that flying is one of the safest forms of transportation. If it's post-traumatic stress disorder, then by all means I wish him well. Surviving a plane crash is by no means easy.

Lukashenko is at it AGAIN! According to NBC News, a Belarussian border guard was sentenced to, of all things, a maximum security prison for two years "for failing to report a border crossing by a Swedish plane that parachuted hundreds of teddy bears into the country carrying pro-democracy protest messages." Where's my WTF face? I pray that I can get a new passport, learn Russian, hope for a revolution and civil disorder in the country and go there and record it all. And help people who might get hurt, the whole nine yards. But it appears that Sweden and Belarus have bad blood.

Russia's the next big thing, at least in real estate. What will it take for Ukraine to go down that road?

Tomorrow I'll do something autism related. I'll have the time, thanks to flight sim.
