Ciao!

Fundraiser time

Since it's Chrismahanukwanzakah time, I'd like to promote a project. So. I've joined the Friends of Iraq Blogger Challenge, sponsored by Spirit of America, which aims to raise funds that go directly to Iraqi people. Projects include things as varied as sewing machines for Ramadi women's cooperatives, books for children's libraries across the country, and support for Arabic language bloggers. I've decided to support the Iraq School Partners project, which will partner Iraqi schools w/ American schools in friendship programs.

You can also join Team Ciao & help beat big name bloggers out there. We're underdogs, but I think we can do it.

NOTE: Also, if you're looking for a really good blog on Iraq, you should read Kevin Sites. He's a freelance reporter (currently for NBC) covering the the front lines in Iraq; he broke the Marine shooting story (which he caught on camera, up close).
