Usain Bolt is talented, but a true champion should show some respect for his opponents. It’s called good sportsmanship. Unfortunately, as the Tuaregs of Mali say, “There is no school in which someone can learn manners.” http://tinyurl.com/56lffo
There is no school in which someone can learn manners.
Death is clothing that everyone will wear one day.
Once again where was Jesus Christ to save these people? It is a tragedy to know that entire families were killed. Unfortunately, as the Mossi of Burkina faso say,”Death is clothing that everyone will wear one day.” http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2008/08/22/news/Spain-Plane-Crash.php
The dog gets irritated when someone walks on his tail.
The Russians are hostile toward the Americans about the US-Poland missile deal. Russia feels threatened. It is loosing its influence in almost all the ex-communist block countries. As the Fangs of Gabon say,”The dog gets irritated when someone walks on his tail.” /wwhttp:/w.cbc.ca/world/story/2008/08/20/us-poland-missileshield.html
The lie can go upstairs taking the elevator. However….
The story of Bigfoot is a pure fabrication. The Georgian men didn’t prove it. The results from test on genetic material failed to prove the existence of the mythical creature.

As the Massai of Kenya say,”The elephants that take their baths last are [...]
