Here's my fact.

I spent the first year of my life living in a pre-fab house on the grounds of a nuclear research facility.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

 I feel uncomfortable wearing a non-green or grey shirt, so I more or less never do.

I hate having short hair, and it is normally to my shoulders. Since a couple months ago it is shorter than it has been in my living memory.
In happier times, amongst my favourite things was to have my hair brushed. It could never quite be brushed long enough to suit me.
It can't be helped...We'll have to use 'that'

I've had teachers who thought I was mentally retarded. 



Of course many you probably won't find that surprising.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
