   About kiterunner
Why kiterunner?
Before the war began, Gudiparan bazi (kite flying) was a common hobby of many Afghans throughout Afghanistan. It was a form of sport that many took to the status of art. From the designs and sizes of kites to the making of unbreakable tar (wire), for many this became a matter of honor to compete in who's who among the best kite fighters in their neigborhood. This addicting sport absorbed many young Afghans, even during the war...

Once the loser of the kite fight would lose the kite, the kite would be released into the air without guidance and would follow the direction of wind. This was a great opportunity for some one else to catch and own it...

Unfortunately kite flying in Afghanistan was a dangerous business. For the most part this was the game of boys. Flying kites in neighborhoods meant one would climb the roof, where they had the best view and access to wind and skies. However, many unwary of their position and looking into the sky were victim of falls. Untold number of children would break bones or even lose their lives with this sport.

Greetings-

I have been busy on tour with Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley Band and haven't had a chance to tell you about my new record! It's called "Bad Little Kitty" and it came out back in July. There are a few tracks to sample on my MySpace but you can also check it out on iTunes or on my own website, www. TaylorHollingsworth. com. Thank you for continuing to be a friend and I hope you like the new collection of songs.

Looks like I missed the poll! Did you guys decide on a new name? I must say I'm partial to kiterunner, but I see the issue. ALTHOUGH to be honest, I may be the only person alive who hasn't read the book OR seen the movie. You could always call it KITEFIGHT! And have warriors onstage! Sorry.... bad joke.

Hope you guys are doing well! Keep in touch!

Your friend, who now has the use of both feet until further notice,
