Oh,THAT Shakira. I won’t forget that picture.
That’s a swift question if you ask me.
Think of Herodias’ daughter but with a Spanish accent and can sing.
My mom was set upon by a “tame” lioness in Mexico. It took her purse. The lion’s owner said “You’ve got winter-green lifesavers in there, don’t you.” Sure as hell. Lion had a thing for winter-green lifesavers.
Those were a problem in Germany - they were scary pigs! The Germans in my village always had their dogs and big walking sticks when they hiked in the woods. Guns would have been better, of course...
Just going to leave this here:

Swine are smart. They’ve probably scared people into dropping bags and running on that road before. Grab the bag and take it into the woods. Look for food. The first time they go for flesh, they‘ll be hunted down and killed.
The Clintons?.....................
Boars, not Boors......................
Simon Cowell and Miley Cyrus? (Sorry, Simon... you rock, but your deliberately brandished reputation fit this joke.)
Boars in Barcelona and bores in DC.
Did you know I always thought the reference was to wild pigs? When I read this, my first instinct was to correct you, but then I realized, “wait a second, the adjective is spelled ‘boorish.’”
(Also realizing another “grammar nazi” thing I don’t know: Where do I stick that last period after ‘boorish’? I blame that on reading too much British literature, because I know their rules are different.)
‘.
.”

Also, given that Yeltsin was an obnoxious drunk, you could spell it “Boris” and pronounce it “Boorish.” :-)
I wondered if it was the new European code word for Jihaddi.
Too funny
Thanks, but what if there are TWO sets of quote marks? Does it go between them, or before both of them? (As a coder, I always thought the British way, which is to enclose the period only if it part of the quote, makes much morse sense.)
It’s a jungle out there.
They were probably upset at how bad her husband’s FC Barcelona looked yesterday.
My rule of thumb is:
Single quote mark - period outside.
Double quote mark - period inside.
It just looks better...................
