I have to admit, I have tested the idiom (I think it is an idiom) above and while it does take significantly longer to boil than if you just put it on the stove and drove to the 7-11, it will eventually boil. I am getting the feeling that a watched moustache never grows. My …
80 years ago today, November 2, 1930, Ras Tafari crowned Haile Selassie I, 225th emperor of Solmonic Dynasty. He was the guy that coined the popular phrase, “It is much easier to show compassions to animals. They are never wicked.” Also, my dad was born. I do not think he ever had a problem showing …
