9. BS = B on Saturday
The Sarasota Herald-Tribune is probably a two-section daily, and the B section on Saturday is full of religion articles. That's getting pretty common...my paper does the same thing, but we're a four-section paper on Saturday.

4. The reason you don't swear around people is becuase some find it offensive.

And if there are other ways to express something you can. So it is part of being nice.

"My lord was a carpenter," he said. "Of course I used to hear people tell dirty jokes or talk about getting drunk, but that just made me want to live a cleaner life in glory to my lord.

I think the texts say Jesus was criticized for eating and drinking with sinners. Did he set an example?

10. Well, it IS news.
It's like finding an endangered species like the three-toed white possum-dog or a Sasquatch.

Like the Dodo and the Palouse Giant Earthworm. Or, moderate Republicans.
