| There is a Mouse Trap in the House! A mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package. What food might this contain the mouse wondered - - - he was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap. Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed the warning : There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!’ The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, ‘Mr.Mouse, I can tell this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by it.’ The mouse turned to the pig and told him, ‘There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!’ The pig sympathized, but said, ‘I am so very sorry, Mr.Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers.’ The mouse turned to the cow and said, ‘There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!’ The cow said, ‘Wow, Mr. Mouse. I’m sorry for you, but it’s no skin off my nose.’ So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the farmer’s mousetrap . . . alone. That very night a sound was heard through out the house — like the sound of a mousetrap catching its prey. The farmer’s wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see it was a venomous snake whose tail the trap had caught. The snake bit the farmer’s wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital, and she returned home with a fever. Everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup’s main ingredient. But his wife’s sickness continued, so friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig. The farmer’s wife did not get well; she died. So many people came for her funeral, the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide enough meat for all of them. The mouse looked upon it all from his crack in the wall with great sadness. So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and think it doesn’t concern you, remember —- when one of us is threatened, we are all at risk. We are all involved in this journey called life. We must keep an eye out for one another and make an extra effort to encourage one another. Remember… Each of us is a vital thread in another person’s tapestry; our lives are woven together for a reason. | |

Buffalohair: Soldiers of Humanity, Free Burma Rangers
Soldiers of Humanity, Free Burma Rangers
Surgery at night in the Jungle
While the government of Burma frantically tried to arrest and convict anyone who opposes the Dictator Than Shwe, the Free Burma Rangers are in the Jungles saving lives. There is no secret Burmas government is placing people in bondage for speaking out against a criminal regime. Young and brilliant minds are being thrown away for the rest of their lives. Popular artists and entertainers as well as religious figures and intellectuals are being targeted as the criminal regime of Than Shwe tightens its grip on a dying nation.
Deep within the jungle government forces have accelerated their program of eugenics and the wholesale murder and rape of tribal people. The Karen, Mon, Arakan and other tribal people of Burma have been ear marked for slave labor or death if they dont comply. Nothing has changed since before the time of Cyclone Nargis. Than Shwe’s hatred for tribal people and his lusting for natural resources has only gotten worse. Burmas future has become a journey into Dantes Inferno as the cries of the hopeless echo into the night. Hopelessness, fear and despair reigns in the hearts of hundreds of thousands of Internally Displaced People. In fear for their lives and hiding deep within the jungles IDPs hold their breath as government troops sweep the area for stragglers. Wounded and dying villagers struggle to mend the wounds with no medical supplies. With a government hunting them down like animals and a world powerless to help, their future looks bleak at best.
Hiding deep in the jungles scouts rush back to enclaves refugees carved in the foliage to report approaching troops. Fearful of the death and torture that awaits them; they hold their breath and pray for a miracle. As the troops advance to the refugees position, a feeling of helplessness envelopes the refugees for their fate rests in the hands of the Creator. Then when all hope seems lost one of the villagers notice these troops are not government forces at all. The noticeable badge on their uniforms read the unmistakable logo, Free Burma Rangers, Free Burmas Soldiers of Humanity.
Clinic in the Jungle. Free Burma Rangers treating the sick and tending to the wounded.
Risking life and limb in a land the world has forsaken the Free Burma Rangers press onward offering humanitarian assistance, healing the sick/wounded and feeding the poor. They are also witnesses to the holocaust that has engulfed Burma. Their news briefs and photos come from deep in the jungle in spite of Than Shwes clamp down on freedom of the press. And I’m proud to be associated with this merry band of courageous human beings called The Free Burma Rangers.

The Only Good Indian gets into Sundance!
A film I worked on last summer that was shot in Kansas, The Only Good Indian, directed by Kevin Willmott, has been accepted into the Sundance Film Festival!
Working on the crew was a great experience (I also have a small speaking role). So Im proud to say I have a teensy part in helping this film come to life. I also think it tells an important story about a part of our history that has been glazed over for far too long.
Congrats to everyone involved! And hooray for filmmaking in Kansas!!
