I know no one reads this but me, but I hope one day that will change-unless Slime Crime decides that the word Lime is their property, always has been, always will be, and wants to sue me. Srsly, I came up w/ Spanglelime a long time ago-I wanted a fun word, or name. Now I'm officially a dual citizen of the United Kingdom (or Great Britain and Northern Ireland as it says in my passport) and a United States of America citizen. I took Spangle from the US national anthem and Lime from one of the traditional slang terms to describe brits. Thus-Spanglelime. So if I ever pursue my own business, whatever it maybe, that is what I'm calling it.
I'm half-tempted to start my own cosmetics line, purely to see what Slime Crime would do. Try to slap a grossly expensive civil suit on me where the burden of proof would be upon them to prove what...I've never spoken out to the detriment of the company.
I believe it's the Russian that believes squashing and oppressing those who disagree or get in your way or in any way have some sort of differing opinion, is the only way to live. Look at Putin. Look what he's doing to dissent now. Yet Russia hides behind a cozy false image of westernized democracy. You can't ever paint over blood though. I wonder if they know that. No matter what, it never goes away. Seeps through new coats of paint, shows up via Luminol (or the new wonder spray that doesn't break down DNA the more you spray it). Anyway...repackaging TKB pigments...sounds easy and lucrative. hmmm. If only there were colours bright enough for me but no cosmetics company has ever made some....

Okay total ramble, on topic, Jess from Out in a Pout is having a Blogiversary Giveaway. Here's the link: http://outinapout.blogspot.com/2010/12/happy-blogiversary-to-meeeee.html
She's amazing and has an incredibly generous and kind spirit, I mean, just look at the products in the giveaway. She is a truly wonderful person. But I'm mostly impressed by her Beautybloggers.org post. A charity auction with all proceeds going to Doctors Without Borders. Unbelievably cool. No one ever gives a second thought to that organization and it's my dream to work for them when I get better again. So if you're reading this, follow Jess' blog Out in a Pout, enter her giveaway and bid on the auction! If you win, MSF wins and then developing nations, such as Haiti or Indonesia, win. There is no call for a cholera epidemic in this day and age. By bidding, you can stop it. Also by entering Jess' giveaway, you're reading a very cool blog by a really cool person and possibly winning a lot of very cool products.
If you read this. You probably don't. Shame.
I'll try to blog more so I become readable!
