I have been at Daily Kos a long time and am keenly aware of the enormous power of this activist community to take action against injustice.

Just this evening I came upon a new site, courtesy of Boing Boing, called Potential Prostitutes.com. The site allows anyone to defame anyone else, even children, anonymously. There is even an option to post a picture. Mad at your next door neighbors 12 year old? Post his or her profile and picture online at Potential Prostitutes.com. Now here's the kicker..
The 12 year old or presumably their parents, will need to pay $100 to have the profile removed from the web site. Browse some of the pictures at your own risk. I was saddened to see so many people posted. My hope is that this post will kickstart the needed attention to see this site disappear before it does too much damage. More info below the fleur de Kos.

l miss dad. I loved him. He was my volcano. He was the most passionate and enthused person I have ever known. There were few that, once meeting him, were not touched profoundly in some manner. He was a true force of nature, a creative tsunami, an inspirational leader, a passionate student of life, a prolific artist, a bundle of visceral positive enthusiasm and energy that erupted on contact.

A true Volcano.

Engaging him was a corporal experience that impacted one emotionally, physically, spiritually and intellectually. He was 91, well loved, lived an amazing life and taught me a few things about success that I hope to pass on to my children and others.

Life lessons below the fold.
