Environmentalist Nun Killed in Brazil

Sister Dorothy Stang, an American nun and environmental activist who has worked since the 1970s with environmental and peasant groups in the Amazon, was killed yesterday by gunmen. I had a dream last night that I was in Brazil, too. Does this mean something?! No, it doesn't. In my dream I was trying to get a helicopter ride back to Rio from this jungle town and even though I had a ticket, the fat lady who was driving the helicopter wouldn't let me on because it was too full. But there were empty seats, dammit! There were empty seats!
