The thoughtful perp jumped through the window saving a substantial mess I’m sure. It was worth having to replace the window I think.

I remember reading in The Bible that they were to be shunned.

Your pride will be perfect at one of their parades.

I’ll be starting to have them moved off of the Church property where the Scout House is now.

Bye Bye. It was nice knowing you.

No Grass:

All I can find is this:

Jefferson purchased his copy of George Sale’s translation of the Qur’an at a bookseller on Duke of Gloucester Street while completing his legal studies at The College of William and Mary. This translation of the Qur’an, the best transcribed into English up to that moment, was prefaced with Sale’s own introduction:

If the religious and civil Institutions of foreign nations are worth our knowledge, those of Mohammed, the lawgiver of the Arabians, and founder of an empire which in less than a century spread itself over a greater part of the world than the Romans were ever masters of, must needs be so.iv

Sale was also a lawyer and his introduction to the Qur’an as a law book is important for understanding how Jefferson read and related to the Qur’an. Sale placed a heavy emphasis on the notion of Quranic exegesis, treating the Qur’an as it was: a sourcebook for Islamic law.

That info was difficult to locate for sure. Don’t bother with the LOC…

I found it here:

Thanks for the challenge, although the subject matter is fairly distasteful to me…

Hilarious Jimmy Kimmel Prank Asks People What They Thought of the Inauguration — Before it Even Happened

CTRL+ to zoom in, CTRL- to zoom out. Same in Chrome and IE. Since the dawn of time near as I can recall.

There’s an option in the View Menu to zoom text only so the graphics don’t get too big. I also installed an image zoom plugin so I can, well, zoom images.

+1 for Ad-Block too.

Why Did Amazon Close a Woman’s Account and Delete All Her Kindle Books?

In reply to jcizarter.

I canceled my Amazon account back then and have discovered that there are plenty of choices, for the items I’m interested in purchasing, from other sites. I can almost always find the same price, including shipping, elsewhere. I often use the Amazon reviews to make my purchasing decision and then search for alternative vendors.

I’m not sure if they also support the queer agenda or not, but they haven’t told me they do, so they’re still on my list. For now…
