well dale, taint you around here? could just drop off the schadenfreude cake.
i took spanish. first heard of schadenfreude on the end message of a dharma and greg.
wilberforce(must be sir wilber, the book doesn't have his given name), was a british parliament member who faught the institution of slavery. i read his speech from 1789 in the orations book just as i found the buttonhook. i knew when i saw it at the estate sale that the name seemed familiar. after 20 years he succedded in ending slavery. he has this massive memorial.
working on a blog/cheesecake freebee eddress. farmer will put in the sidebar when i set it up. sigh. luddite is so busy.
i have to finish reading the old word book my aunt gave me. but busy reading my EB. i wish i could post the map of arabia. i guess the current map is all because of post WW1 brit colomial remnants. has some stans i never heard of. but as soon as i fill a page of scratch paper, i will make another EB post.
i guess some people still know about wilberforce as 12 people were watching the auction. which is a very nice thought. maybe he is big in the UK yet.
