How many 20-year old California girls actually know who J. Gresham Machen is just by looking at his picture? That's even more baffling.

She is definitely 110% Scottish woman like my still surviving grandmother. She has that firey, strong-willed independent woman streak. I'm half English myself, which probably explains why she gives me a hard time. The loathing runs in her blood.


Here is a computer-modeled rendering of her future son:

Scott, you are looking sort of old and craggy for being "Student at University of Texas at Dallas". What's up with that?

Hey, you ever notice how Bob Vigneault looks like Fabio but with white hair?

Ahh, that explains a lot! Since I'm Scottish and Irish, English, Dutch, German, Norwegian and French I have a constant internal warfare. And, here I thought it was the flesh and Spirit.

California has family and location exemptions to underage drinking laws.

Well, Maryland may be bad in other areas (like gun laws), but they do have an exemption for underage possession and consumption at home with parents present. Not as good as California, but not nearly as oppressive as NC.

No, no: it should be "...freedom and liberty are becoming scarce." Typical Babbdist - no English skills!

Gun laws take good weapons out of the hands of honest citizens. Dabgum criminals will get them illegally...let us be armed to the teeth.
