Yes read more books.
ReplyDeleteThe nose ring thing is just weird to me, especially that particular piercing and nose ring. I have no problem with people getting piercings or tattoos or whatever they want to do but some of the piercings just look strange and that's one of them.

ReplyDeleteLady M: It's pretty funny. Whoever made it has been paying attention to the news.
Quitters are Winners? Why does the forfeit always go into the win column of the team that shows up?

ReplyDeleteLots of good stuff! Yes, definitely read more books, especially those that fanatics want to ban. And religion in politics! No... NEVER EVER. Do we never learn?
ReplyDeleteThe lesson about keeping religion out of politics was fresh in the minds of the Founders when they wrote the Constitution, but it seems necessary to re-learn it every generation.
ReplyDeleteBooks, of course, can help us keep the lessons of history in mind.
