It was repeated often in regards to getting a good education. Although spelled wrong the point was always transparent. http://www.buzzle.com/articles/the-three-rs-of-prophetic-warning-old-time-stuff-that-still-works-today.html Sat, 31 Oct 2009 00:00:00 EST http://www.buzzle.com/articles/foxophobia-triskaidekaphobia-fickle-phantasms-from-the-white-house.html Triskaidekaphobia is the fear of the number 13, and while it may seem silly to some then we discover friggatriskaidekaphobia which is fear of Friday the 13th. Superstitious, silly perhaps, but some people are stricken with real trepidation over them both. Here comes Foxophobia, what is a nation to do? http://www.buzzle.com/articles/foxophobia-triskaidekaphobia-fickle-phantasms-from-the-white-house.html Sun, 25 Oct 2009 00:00:00 EST http://www.buzzle.com/articles/maharashtra-election-results-a-slap-in-the-face-of-provocative-regionalism.html The Oct 2009 election results in Maharashtra, India, have proved that the divisive policies of self-centered politicians like Raj Thakerey are NOT welcome by the people of India.

When I addressed what would happen in the United States they listened but I may as well have been reciting verses of Shakespeare in Lithuanian. http://www.buzzle.com/articles/eu-and-america-race-to-the-top-of-the-prophetic-ladder.html Wed, 14 Oct 2009 00:00:00 EST http://www.buzzle.com/articles/money-and-celebrity-the-new-substitute-for-justice-in-america.html Is leftism rising to the defense of evil even as it sinks to the depths of hell?
