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.
This is what would kill me.

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 -->Oh, I bet you'd have gotten La Paz right away, because even I did! OTOH I had no memory of Vaduz, so even when I was cycling through the alphabet for penultimate letters -- -az, -ez, -iz, -oz, -uz, -dz, -lz, -nz, -rz, -tz, etc. -- I didn't recognize -uz when I came to it.
I got it - eventually, though within the time. But "right away" what I got was Zagreb.
