You are so funny!! I remember a gal fight when I was around 10 years old. I was able to watch it out of a window. Two mothers got into a fight about one of their kids. The husbands stood there helplessly as the gals pulled hair, scratched and tried to rip their clothing off. I was surprised that the husbands did nothing even when the loser was almost totally naked and crying loudly. I never forgot it.
It would be so easy to cheat on this test. You aren’t even watching me while I take it!
Still cheating is wrong so I will do my best by guessing. Funny thing is I don’t remember any of this being discussed in class.

Haha, I was at a dance during a weekend Lutheran Youth gathering, and one of my friends ran around to couples. She waved her hairbrush between then and shouted “leave room for the Holy Spirit!”. It was funny.
