Now this one is quite naughty, Rico! Yes, I had to look up "Venus Mound" too. You're so clever. Hugs, Carolyn

He was reportedly born there, why wouldn't he go there? Aloha! Rico

Those who look up 'Venus Mound,' as I did, are in for quite a surprise, I imagine. ~ gw

Were you surprised by the fact that if he had gone to England, where weight is measured by stone, it would have given an entirely new definition to casting the first stone, most especially if He realised Brits also refer to testicles as stones? Aloha! Rico

I don't know if Jesus knew much about math, I guess if he was a carpenter though he probably would have~

Any 12-year-old who sasses adults is unlikely to have gainful employment as a carpenter, temple cashier, fisherman, or whatever, most especially one who goes AWOL for 40-days! Aloha! Rico
