Had to stop today at the middle of a looong sentence: 93.34: "..., from Samyouwill Leaver or Damyou will Lover..."

Favorites of the day:

Lunar Sisters' Celibacy Club

(for was not just this in effect which had just caused that the effect of that which it had caused to oc-cur?)

tumass equinous

And the soother the bitther! Of eyebrow pencilled, by lipstipple penned.

To the Switz bobbyguard's curial but courtlike: Commodore valley O hairy, Arthre jennyrosy?

... and send treats in their times. Ymen.
[hear: and send peace in our time. Amen.]
