Funny to hear Kinsey speak of haircuts. She does her own, but said this woman she met could have benefited from a $40 cut.

There was a very poignant discussion between Kenzie and her on-again, off-again flame. It shows how sometimes being honest can only exasperate both people, even though they're telling the truth, because it involves basically a intractable situation.

She's no sãp.
She told the guy the surface somewhere around book 3, who came back after two-year absence, but I'm not some pet that you can take in and out of the pet shop

Fear is the mind killer. There is a little death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear, I will permit it to pass over me and threw me. And when it is gone past me, I will turn to see fears path. Where the fear has gone I will see nothing, only I will remain

On a dog side there is the lead dog number one, the swing dog number two and the wheel dog the last one number eight. The rest are just considered to be the team

Question to investigate. What is the difference between an angel and an archangel?

At first I thought the idea of including a description of all the emojis in the conversations and emails back and forth was original and interesting. But after a while it just got to be annoying. Also the same for acronyms that I don't even know what they stand for, for instance FSS

One of the customs that Leto changed was the ringing of the bath towels that people dried their feet on. They would give that to the beggars. Going forward he said they would give a cup to any better that came to the door

St Augustine was quoted.
One date tree drinks the water of 100 men. It would seem Arákis is much too dry for that

DIno doesnt like STones new gf, MO. THinks she stole the painting. What was the last painting VAn Gogh did?
It appears to be Tree Roots, although I always thought it was Wheatfield with Crows.

I wonder if senate membership today is still more powerful than being a state governor . The Kansas Nebraska at which nullified the Missouri Compromise was very responsible for civil unrest

Todd Schafer is finished with Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of the Lusitania
Interesting how the English put more emphasis on the skipper of the craft, rather than villainizing the Germans who sank it. Said he was too close to the coast, why didn't they protect it with a couple of destroyers? I can see how this could have been orchestrated to drag the US into the conflict.

Wilson was more concerned and depressed about the rejection from Edith Galt than he was about world events in 1915.

60% of all torpedo launchings failed in someway. Either they were able to deep going under the target or the warhead didn't go off.

These Uboats sounded like a horrible place to be. No circulating air, one toilet only, no water for bathing, and intensely cramped spaces.
It was said that the sub had to surface and pillage food from wherever they could

It wasnt until 1953 that the US started giving female names to hurricanes. It seems so odd looking back that the Galveston Hurricane was just that, with nothing to set it apart from all the hurricanes that since hit there.

One of the problems created by the storm was what to do with all the dead. The idea of dumping them at sea didnt work out too well as many of the bodies returned to the shore, despite being weighed down. Even graves at the cemetary gave up their dead.

Supposedly the storm caused a barometer reading of 27.49, which would've been incredibly low.

I like the Way archer ask a lot of questions instead of just taking the money when he was offered that that I can deal. For instance he asked, how do I know that the man still owes the money?
