Live With The Gorillas 2007-03-16 11:29:42 At first glance, you would probably shy clear of sharing a room with a Silverback Gorilla. A 400lb gorilla is not something you wish to take lightly. They are big, unpredictable and strong. Smelly too. They tend to ruin furniture, not because they are aggressive, but rather because your average living room couch was build for lighter things - such as two growing teenagers involved in a violent tussle.

Adventure Travel In Peru - Trying Out A New Road 2007-03-16 11:21:18 In my missionary work here in southern Peru, I sometimes help out some short-term teams that come from the U.S. On one of these occasions, I drove to near Oyolo, a village about five hours away from Cotahuasi where I live, to meet Pastor Eddie and his team from Florida. They were driving from Pausa and were supposed to be meeting me up on the high plain, about an hour before Oyolo, as they were going to be using the “new road” we had learned about when we were there a number of months before.

The situation in Iraq is changing daily, with the allied forces pushing ever harder against the Mehdi Army of Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr. The country is overrun with journalists looking for the latest scoop, and travelers also, are arriving to see for themselves how the people are faring.
Against this backdrop, adventurer-traveler Daniel Smith entered the country via the Kurdish north on June 29th and headed south to Baghdad.
In part two of Smith?s journal at Polo?s Bastards (www.polosbastards.com), he describes his journey from Kirkuk to Baghdad, and the infamous Abu Ghraib Prison.
?Two women with covered heads approach me, holding snapshots of their teenage sons? Smith writes, ?They want me to take photographs of the snapshots, and tell the government that their sons are innocent.?
