Aquamarines are not particularly valuable. Perhaps the girl did not appreciate getting your old “stuff” instead of a personal gift that recognized her taste. You should discuss with your relative who is the best person to contact her,... | 5dff2c89375fe9ee3e675ae4396970e4473e71a71083e384e2bcd0cf109c6a53 | ['637293d8e67c4e7fa9e44685fe2833ca'] | I will miss Homeland very much - I always found it filled with surprising realism in its treatment of spys and politics. The only thing I won't miss is the absolute terror I felt for <PERSON> in every episode. I would tape the show and then build up my courage to watch it. <PERSON>'s desire to do the right thing and al... |

You want a repeat of that type of “very stable genius” thinking?

That would have been so much wiser and gentlemanly and appropriate. It’s completely out of line for <PERSON> who had devoted his time and wealth to helping solve public health issues in the poorest countrie... |

<PERSON> echoes what’s often said - and always wrong. By definition, there are not “entirely different facts” about a given situation. There are facts and then there are other things, like i... | 7765a30c161c5c808b92c80ff8c0512e3b78f4d33a27725790872e8b8f2e7585 | ['643472d65dd04fc5858fc4bf55a5b53c'] | Thank you, <PERSON>, who got the hate-government ball rolling 40 years ago. Thank you, Republicans who loved the Contract with America and benefited year after year from the Tea Party, and now from far-right extremists. Thank you, <PERSON>, for finding out the hard way that leadership in a time of life-and-death isn't ... |
