Here's my snarky remark for the day (I'm allotted 1.35 per day and I can accumulate them. Honest -- it's in the Zion-L charter). I read that there are rumours that the US is moving Patriot missiles into Kuwait. This could be for many reasons, including part of the enforcement of the southern no

Well, I know that when my Mom bought my missionary bible for me, it cost some C$70.00 and that was in the mid-70s. And by coincidence, the C$ was actually worth slightly *more* than the US$ at the time. That was an awful lot of money for a single mom, but she was so proud -- I was the first

Yes, they were invited in by the government. What's happening is that, in common with most of the countries in West Africa (notably Nigeria, but also Benin, Togo, Ghana ) Cote d'Ivoire (aka Ivory Coast) is comprised of five geographic regions: a coastal region, often deltas of rivers, like
