Sister Jabou,

Thanks though! I am just making a joke about your earlier forward, i.e. helping Clinton repay her loan. 

 

Thanks also to Jawara MA for the rejoinder. I meant to say “flushing” gally-gally and fluxing to the side of the winner of the race. I don’t know where she learnt her arithmetic but it doesn’t resonate with me. Still a race though, she can go all the far she wants to go. I think that the Edwards should have roared in by now, since his chief advisors already did it loud and clear. 

 

I think the couples are something else. Thomos Paine might be groaning in his tomb over a system of monarchical administration, or at least an effort to sneak another one of the same family.  Bush out, Clinton in. Clinton out, Bush in. Bush out, Clinton in. I don’t know about others but that just gives me fever

 

I wish Barrack all the luck he deserves. 

 

Regards,

YJ
