I think the Rubicon just got crossed.

Not long ago on a visit to my Pa's, I went to mass at the church we belonged to when I was a kid.  This is a tiny parish in the boonies of WI.  Demographics whiter than february.  They had a new priest from Nigeria, sounded like a really great guy.  It was evening mass and there was a power outage, lights cut off in the middle of his homily.   He cracks in his heavy accent "I bet all you can see is teeth and eyeballs".

Now put that flashcard at the back of the deck so you don't sound stupid by saying the same thing in the span of 5 minutes.

I enjoy seeing certain types in a twisted wreck coping with the loss, and no I don't mean the split... 

 

Funny you should use the term "wreck".

Collaborator, remember that term.  

Now put that card at the back of the deck  . . . .

No.  Much smaller.  

I am sure if Hyde were to submit a drop of blood to Ancestry.com, he would find that he is SCANDAL(IAN).

Somalia - he is an NFL mercenary

Chadian - he has a friend named Chad

Algerian - he speaks Algerian

Nigerian - he looks like one

Danish - he likes donuts

American - he went for the money - the American way

Libyian - he is friends with Khadafy (spell?)

A very non-racist mixture. 

You say, Gaddafi, we say Qaddafi. Other variations on the (former) leader of Libya include "Gathafi," "Kadafi," and "Gadafy," creating an unholy mess for newspaper editors. At the time, his official web site spelled it, "AL Gathafi". And that's just the surname. Variations on his given name include Muammar, Moammar, Mu'ammar, and Moamar, and many others.

I could come up with as many for my brother-----the last white guy in America named "Dante" 

Dontay/Daunte/Deonte/Deontay/D'antae.......shall I go on?
