    I just hope you've had the opportunity to punch someone in the neck sometime in the last couple of weeks.
    Everything in life is an approximation.

      The post that started the thread linked to a Washington Post piece saying that Elizabeth Smart didn't try to escape because of Mormon teachings on sex. It turned out, when we saw the video, that she didn't say that. That's all I'm saying. No criticism intended. Things get misreported in the early stages all the time.
      “There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”
      ― W.H. Auden


      "God made the angels to show His splendour - as He made animals for innocence and plants for their simplicity. But men and women He made to serve Him wittily, in the tangle of their minds."
      -- Robert Bolt, A Man for All Seasons


      "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."
      --Antoine de Saint-Exupery
