“A scientist said, making a plea for exchange scholarships between nations, "The best way to send an idea is to wrap it up in a person." That was what happened at Christmas. The idea of divine love was wrapped up in a person.” WayPersonsSaidIdeasHappenedDivineScientistBest WayChristmasDivine LoveWrapsChristmas DayChristmas LoveChristmas MagicHoliday TraditionsReligious ChristmasMeaning Of Christmas Author:Halford Luccock
“H. L Mencken's Dictionary of the American Language supplies a long list of slang terms for being drunk, but the Irish are no slouches, either. They're spannered, rat-arsed, cabbaged, and hammered; ruined, legless, scorched, and blottoed; or simply trolleyed or sloshed. In Kerry, you're said to be flamin'; in Waterford, you're in the horrors; and in Cavan, you've gone baloobas, a tough one to wrap your tongue around if you ARE baloobas. In Donegal, you're steamin', while the afflicted in Limerick are out of their tree.” IfsLongSaidLanguageTermGoneTreeHorrorToughTongueListsDrunkRatsRuinedWrapsDictionarySuppliesSlangHammeredLimerickBeing DrunkAmerican Language Author:Bill Barich
