Warm and sunny. No complaints here.

Nothing like walking across your yard before dawn in the dark and realizing you are standing next to a skunk. It took me three steps to get back in the house. Then, the stupid thing decided to hole up underneath my truck. :shock:

Technically, it is. However, I am taking as an elective to help with my understanding of Linguistics as advised to me by a professor. I am a junior.

I agree that French influenced ASL and English separately. However, French is a Romance language which has Latin roots. English is a Germanic language that has a large portion of its vocabulary borrowed from French. The original Old English sounds very German. The reason of the French influence...

That's the way it is here as well. I will go to the local CVs grocery store to get odds and ends that I can't find at Dollar General or Family Dollar. At Walmart, the Great Value milk is around $3.50/gal. Here at my local grocery store, it is $4.10/gal, and that is the cheap WIC milk. The...

Classical Latin, not church Latin.

I live in a very small town but there aren't any American Mom & Pop shops anymore. We have a Dollar General and a Family Dollar and a True Value hardware store and Sonic. Everything else is a Mexican or Asian restaurant.

I feel better than I did yesterday but this rain is making me sleepy when I would rather be reading.

I did this when I was young and my mom dragged everything back out of the closet and made me do it right. I spent two days sorting and cleaning everything out. My daughter has done this, she knows she is busted and instead of going to the fishing derby this Saturday, she gets to stay in her...
