Bono's Doll
New Yorker
I am so jealous of girls with 34" inseams--would trade boobs for legs.

Sure, I'm happy to do it. (By the way, I remember you from the old Zootopia. I didn't post much back then, but I practically lived there, lol.)
I'm going to try to hit the bookstore on my way home from work tomorrow, and pick up two copies. Wish me luck!
I'll write to you once I have them, and you can give me your particulars. Just remember your side of the bargain!

Of course, we all know she' the only person on earth who calls him Paul,

No, Bono said on Larry King that the only person who called him Paul was his father. He says he doesn't like it when people call him that.

And he also answered when asked if Ali calls him Bono or Paul, "neither, she calles me baby." I'm assuming she'd call him a pet name like that or Bono. Sure it's a weird nickname, but it's not that different that calling a Stephen "steve". Or like my bro who's name is Andrew and the only person that EVER calls him that (unless my mom is PISSED) is my grandma.
Ali's latest goal is her new ethical fashion company, Edun, which launches in Selfridges this month, with prices starting at £35.

That I can afford!!
If you want to support sustainable, Fair Trade clothing products (and unfortunately NOT Bono & Ali, who, bless 'em, have probably gotten a fair share of our hard earned money, anyway!), you might check out Maggie's Organic Cotton clothing - not pricey, but PC or go on line and try to find some Fair Trade clothing that is NOT high fashion. There are cool denim jackets and Converse-type tennis shoes (Yeah...like Edge wears!!) which are made by Fair Trade companies.
I bet OxFam could point in the direction of Fair Trade clothing. And I think there's a website to stop sweatshops and support non-sweatshop clothing production.
This is not a new ting, girlies...just a new ting for the Hewsons. Thanks to them for enlightening folks who otherwise would support sweat shops and not even know it.

If you are interested in sweatshop free clothing and a company that provides much of what EDUN is provides in 3rd world countries ( but cannot afford the designer prices...), please visit www.americanapparel.net. I have personally visited their factory in downtown LA. All of African Well Fund's tshirts come from this place. The factory is "sweatshop free" as well as offering fair wages and insurance options for their employees. it's a great company and model for future companies that avoid the sweatshop model.
They also have retail stores in some big cities, but if not you can order online
And if you want to order AWF tshirts, we have some for sale at:

Get one in time for the U2 concerts!
