   I've rewritten Jesus' last conversation with Peter to make it understandable    
   for those who don't know the Greek words being used that are translated the    
   same in English.   
      
   as tradiotinally translated:   
   J: Do you love me, Peter?   
   P: You know I love you, Lord.   
   J: Ahh, so you only love me?   
      
   My version:   
   J: Do you love me with all your heart & soul, with a willingness to die for   
   me, if it came to that?   
   P: You know I consider you a pal.   
   J: *sigh* So I'm only a buddy to you?

   I asked my French friend if he knew what the word "pipi" translated to in    
   English...   
   He said, "oui, wee."   
      
   I ran over 5 miles today   
   Like, what are the odds they were all named Miles? Crazy.   
      
   ôIs this the Spanish word for ænapÆ?ö She asked, pointing to a word on the
