I agree who would want a dead head to bounce in their bed. Sad that she hated John The Baptizer so much. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

A shortage of Baptists in New York resulted in Ma Fia selecting discarded horseheads, but with a priest's blessing, of course! Aloha! Rico

The way I heard it, Moses asked a priest, "Is Ra ill?" parrots echoed that so the priest banished them all to the shore to wash out their mouth with soap. The Red Sea never encountered so many lyes and recoiled, Moses and the Is-Ra-Ill-ites naturally crossed to see what they could see. The sea closed, none of them could float a boat, and they have wandered about ever since looking for a place to live that no one else wanted.
