Pray for Girls

The three deadliest words in the world have become: "It's a girl!"

A new documentary film is bringing to light the gendercide of over 200,000,000 girls a year being murdered or gone missing strictly based on the fact they were born girls. The statistics are sickening. The UN reports approximately 200 million girls in the world today are ‘missing’. India and China are said to eliminate more female infants than the number of girls born in the US each year.

Don't skip over that line, India and China are said to eliminate more female infants than the number of girls born in the US each year.

As a Daddy of two precious little girls and loving (almost) every minute of it, this turns my stomach and I'm thankful this documentary film will hopefully bring to light what has been in the shadows (at least to me and many in the US).

Well said Milwaukee.

Old Navy Goes College

I'm loving the college line from Old Navy these days. I've always thought Auburn needed better PR on their clothing and think this is a good start and price point. You might have heard about this line on the news as they got more than a few universities founding date wrong... oh well. I'll take the good with the bad.





A few Hello Kitty Auburn shirts in there too just in case you're in the market. That Hoodie for $25 might be too good to pass up on.w
