Time to vent?

Bhilal: There is no compulsion in religion. A man may take many years, or only need minutes. It is God who decides the time.
Abu Sofyan: Let's shoot some rockets at some Jews. What are they going to do? Dinkins is mayor now. Lets vent.

    '76, '86, '96, '06, when did it ever change or will ever change? If I can get used (barely) to their wallawallawalla why can't they get used to my pushiness (or as I describe it, excessive exuberance)?

    Oh yeah, didn't you know that. We have been batting the Yiddish back and forth for quite a while now.

    Yeah but ricpic can read hard core stuff at a glance. He must have had a Yiddisher mamma.

    The truth is my parents used yiddish as a secret language in front of me and my sister. I just picked up a few phrases. Can't follow actual conversation.
