CLAMP School Detectives...

I just borrowed one of the manga from the library.Um is it just me, or are those boy's shorts way too short? I remember going to a private school, and sure the shorts were short, but only a few inches above the knee. I just sorta shudder.

It's probably intentional to attract more attention from the female audience, nothing new although I'm usually used to the other way around: females having way to short skirts. :)

Yea.. Clamp tends to do twisted things like that.. I used to like X before I was saved, But I don't think I would want to read/watch any clamp made stuff now..

Personally, I think the short shorts are just-- >_< wrong. . . I don't know many females who would be "turned on" by that.

But who knows? Maybe me and my friends are just weird.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Well, it works the other way round for sure because sex sells.
