Me again. Here are some quotes labeled “African” in the Prentice-Hall Encyclopedia of World Proverbs:

Ordinary people are as common as grass, but good people are dearer than an eye.

I have before me a copy of the Prentice-Hall Encyclopedia of World Proverbs. Although I have not found the quote in question, in the back is a bibliography listing 30 books of African proverbs alone. Some are dissertations. Many seem to be compiled by persons with what would seem to be African names: Ekwulo, Ajibola,…

Well don’t look now but there’s a spree killer on the loose in New Florence at the moment.

Jason Holsman is my state Senator.

Well do you suppose that when those males have a daughter and she has, say, a 6'5" 250-pound guy with a police record for assault named Brutus stalking her, do you suppose then that those males can conceive of the idea that unwanted sex may exist? And that their daughter might be not wanting it from Brutus, say? and…

HOLY SHIT that is one of the worst things I have ever heard. Sorry that happened to you.

Then you’ll be doubly surprised when people like this take over the country and finally manage to set up the theocracy they want. Not everyone who fits the description is a rural, education-eschewing Duggar type. Many are fed directly into the halls of power. During the Iraq war, many of these high-achieving, quiet,…

If you watched Stalked! Someone’s Watching on ID channel, this happens ALL the damn time.

I think so too. I do, however, remember a short excerpt from a letter Hae had written Adnan to the effect of “Let me go” that sent chills up and down my spine when I heard it. That was one of the moments during the podcast when I thought Adnan did it (I shouldn’t have to say this, but my thinking he did it is separate…

I thought it was quite clever

Was his name Jay?

Who’s that? Mr. and Mrs. Godwin? Nice-looking couple.

This is what’s been bothering me about the posts worried about that woman who kept the dic pick for several years. Some posters seem worried that maybe the woman kept the dick pick because she liked the dick for turn-on reasons or aesthetic appreciation or something like that. As a woman, I firmly believe the vast…
