Pinky Toe

Had a little accident...

...nothing to crazy.  You know...another day out in the water...wiped out on a humungous wave and snagged my pinky toe on my leash.  Wasn't that bad...but a shark ran into me and tried to eat me...had to kick it 5 times in the face to make it swim away.  All I got was a broken toe...and a little bite in my board...
...If you see me with my special shoe you'll know why.

Benazir Bhutto

I'm one of many people who never heard of her until she was assassinated.  What a tragedy.  I hesitate to iconize political figures who I know little about but she seems to be one of the most interesting people of our time.
