Elie Wiesel, holocaust survivor, Nobel Laureate, political activist and author of the book Night, in which he describes his experiences as a prisoner in the Auschwitz concentration camps, passed away July 2nd at the age of 87.

Elie Wiesel: September 30th, 1928- July 2nd, 2016. His Hair: September 30th, 1928- ?
While this is a great loss to the world, we can take comfort in the fact that Mr. Wiesel has donated his hair to Bernie Sanders so that at least a part of him can continue the good fight for progressives everywhere.

Bernie Sanders With Elie Wiesel’s Posthumously Donated Hair
“I’m so honored to have Elie Wiesel’s hair implanted on my head,” Mr. Sanders said earlier. “It not only makes me feel wiser, it helps very much in keeping my head warm on cold nights. Mr. Wiesel was a great man. His hair was also great, and it will live on on my head for as long as I carry breath in my lungs. R.I.P. Mr. Wiesel, and long live your hair!”

As a complete aside, Clicking on your avatar does not take me to your blog but to your profile.
And if I click on your avatar or name on the drop down it gives me a blank page.
Any clues why?
Most frustrating, as if you don’t comment and only like I can’t get to your blog without trawling through my reader to find a post.

Everyone’s comments go into moderation. It bothers the living fuck outta the religious idjits that try to comment and that, my friend, gives me a woody. So, all of your comments will be approved, but I ain’t changin’ a fuckin’ thing. $Amen$ 😀

Okay, moderation I can understand.
What about the gravatar thing. Is there something you can fix on the settings ?

No one seems to think anything is wrong; thus, no one can give me clues as to what settings to change. I’m certain this is just Jesus fuckin’ with me for fuckin’ with him so much over the years. Or, maybe not.

When you appear in my drop down and I click your name – inspiredbythedivine1 – it immediately takes me to a blank page.
I think it might have something to do with the URL?

Click on the icon instead. That should take you to my Gravatar page which has my site listed on it. Can’t figure out what’s up.

That’s what I do. I just wondered if there was a simple fix?
