More on :

" The Wine Guy in a tutu, " a vid. 'The Wine Guy' is an ap guy online who has his

own following or fans. Well, I guess, he bumped in the lps from the Pit Boss

Show, so he has one of his friends follow him, to tape him walking with them. So

yeah, it's a voyeur vid or why did he follow them-the lps in the first place?

Another voyeur vid at its worse, lps at a Breast Cancer Awareness walk taped,

not for their being there and in support of it, like everyone who is also there,

but because they are lps that difference is pointed out:

1-meter tall Expo volunteer is big hit, from China. This article with pic, I

feel, is going to die soon as other sources on it already have, so I would check

it now, if you want to:

Meet , Espanol, who is undergoing Ell:

Translated into English, the title only, of another Espanol article that's

great, I think:)

" The organization Little People of Guatemala (GPG) recently participated in a

congress of Achondroplasia in Spain where they discussed the progress on

disability and future projects in at least twelve countries. "

Guatemala_0_353964801.html

I believe this article covers the same conference held in Spain, with a

different pic but also in Espanol:

Another article, same topic I am almost sure, with a diff pic as well:

Last but not least, meet Karishma:), a teen lp from India who is in her last

phase of ELL, I think. Altho ELL would never be for me, because what may be my

experience as an lp in my country too, no less, may be entirely different and

much harder for another who has been ridiculed over it to the extent as she

claims, and for the benefit of doubt, Karishma's, I believe her:). Plus, her

being a kid, I could never make fun of her or decry her choice no matter how

much I may disagree with that decision anyway.

She prolly needs a friend more than anything, another lp-a non ELL lp and/or an

ELL lp, but one who understands what she is going thru as an lp and one who is

non-judgmental about her decision, which really is almost completed anyway. So,

it's not like you or I could 'un-convince' her now, and should we(?).

I tried to find more on her, so maybe a fellow teen could email or befriend her.

I did find a 'little' more and I'm almost there in that area, so when I do I'll

pass it to a parent of an lp teen-one that I recognize as being one.
