Language Liberalism Freethought Birds
Verbing Weirds Language only if you're expecting it to work in a simple way. This is a special case of the more general truth that Language Weirds.
Only when a republic's life is in danger should a man uphold his government when it is in the wrong. There is no other time.
The church says Earth is flat; but I have seen its shadow on the moon, and I have more confidence in a shadow than the church.
If we can't find Heaven, there are always bluejays.
Hmmm. Something's happening with I and the Bird entries. Either they're being rejected for being boring (I could understand that, lately, though I thought the juncos were nice), or they're not getting through.
I used to teach Russian and Ukrainian, and some basic English, to civil servants. Now I teach Russian at a local continued-learning institute. I dabble in Gaelic and Welsh. I'm am amateur photographer and I love birding (in a small way). I'm a Progressive, and a Freethinker, and I know Evolution is a fact - that's FCD, Friend of Charles Darwin (look down the sidebar). I read a lot, and follow women's college basketball. Also I love astronomy, though I'm a rank amateur at it. Most of all, I like living in the reality-based community...

<-- Older Post ^ Home Newer Post -->Hey there, just discovered your comment here. Thanks for the compliment! I never got your junco post. I do make a point of including everything that's sent to me, so I would've put yours in if I'd got it. I wonder what happened to it?
You're welcome - I loved the drawing. The junco post actually is in the current IATB, so I have no idea. I probably got it in late, and Mike sent it on to Duncan so you never saw it.
