I've been with my girlfriend for 3 years and everything was fine with us that we don't have to fight or quarrel for anything . My girlfriend got a new job and after 2 months of her new job, I noticed some changes in her. Few weeks before my birthday, my girlfriend broke up with me for another man. I never expected such from her. I was in severe pain and needed help urgently. I searched for help online and found Lord Zakuza who is a spell caster. I told him everything I was going through and he understood me well. He told me that he will prepare a love spell for me that will get my girlfriend back within 48 hours and he explained to me how it was going to be done and I agreed. He prepared the love spell for me and my girlfriend returned back to me begging me for forgiveness within 48 hours. I was shocked and happy and I accepted her back.. We are back together and everything is going fine. I want to thank Lord Zakuza for his help by sharing this testimony online for other people to find help too in any area of their lives. Get in touch with him with the below details. For he's good at what he does.<br /><br />WhatsApp/Call/Text +1 (740) 573-9483.<br />Email: Lordzakuza7@gmail.comSMITH CASHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00817587300517043844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-74927345239889696762021-03-24T16:28:14.874-04:002021-03-24T16:28:14.874-04:00i want to recommend Dr Eromosele as the best spell...i want to recommend Dr Eromosele as the best spell caster from Africa, he is a good and guanine man who love help people, i came across his testimonies online and how he help people bring back their lover, at first i thought he was one of those scammer but i decried to try but to my greatest surprise he didn't have a good job and my love is back and will a living together as one. all this was because of dr eromosele, you can contact him today and get your problem solved you him on whatsapp at +2348075799423 or email him at: dreromosele156@gmeil.comCaroline Parrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06031540111759274665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-84656938217115584462020-09-08T18:54:27.619-04:002020-09-08T18:54:27.619-04:00My lover dumped for another woman with two kids i...My lover dumped for another woman with two kids i was confused until i came <br />in contact with Dr Aluya who helped me with a powerful love spell that <br />brought him back within 2 days. contact Dr Aluya for help on : <br />Email :aluya.48hoursspelltemple@gmail.com or WhatsApp him +2348110493039Debra Gibbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04732949745110348861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-44397343833711769272020-09-08T03:30:24.021-04:002020-09-08T03:30:24.021-04:00Hi everyone, my name is Rabueil Islam

I needed the spell caster to reunite me and my lover because she started behaving strange and a day came she text me and told me she cannot continue with the relationship anymore, that she just want to be alone. But a close friend of hers shows the guy to me that she was now dating. So i contacted thcomis spell caster because i was totally heart broken and i smoked and get drunk till i could not even notice if am standing or lying.This spell caster told me not to worry, he gave me hope that am to have her again just like old times, and i provided all the requirements, and in just 5 days, my ex lover called me crying over the phone asking for me to forgive her for her stupid act, and she swore with her mother grave to love me and never hurt me again.This was what the spell caster earlier told me and it came after he has done the spell and that same night, my lover came to my house and spend the night with me.I have never seen spell as powerful as this but now, am convinced that Dr Aluya is the best ever, You can contact him through him email address:aluya.48hoursspelltemple@gmail.com or WhatsApp: +2348110493039Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751325210929192253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-88122145805150486062020-01-22T03:29:37.649-05:002020-01-22T03:29:37.649-05:00My Name is Dr sebi you can Contact Me via Email dr...My Name is Dr sebi you can Contact Me via Email drsebicurecenter@gmail.com For Penis Enlargement Product to help you get as long as 8inches Long with good Erection.

Heh, heh. It’s funny...<i>So many deadrat's on TDH</i><br /><br />Heh, heh. It’s funny, you see, because I complain about all the Anonymous commenters, uniform in their ignorance and their uncanny ability to miss the point.<br /><br />But there are at least two deadrats. There’s me — the original, accept no substitutes — whom you can always identify because I comment with a google id, which appears in a <b>bold</b>, green font and is clickable. Then there’s the other deadrat, who uses the Name/URL option from the “Reply as:” drop down, making the resulting name appear in a <b>bold</b>, black font that isn’t a link.<br /><br />I haven’t seen the faux deadrat for a while. All of his comments were off the wall, and when the spirit moved him, he could be on target and devastatingly funny. Here’s one of my favorites from last June:<br /><br /><i>Let me type this out slowly so you can understand: I masturbate to Eric Estrada.<br /><br />Daily.<br /><br />And I don't even like men.<br /><br />I just thought given the emotional impotency of glyphs, we should deal strictly with facts.

Good start.<br /><br /><i>You're just here to defend Bob from criticism.</i><br /><br />Oh, too bad. Points off for guessing at motivation. And you were doing so well.<br /><br />Why couldn’t you get close on this one? I actually don’t think that TDH has made his case on the memoir, that the world as we know it turns on the memoir, or that his handwringing about “liberal” response to the memoir is justified.<br /><br />As well, you didn’t even address the second part of the quiz. I’m afraid this is barely passing.<br /> <br />---------------<br />BTW, I'm pointing out that your retort “‘If you don't like Bob's take, write your own blog’ retorts, can be applied to Bob.” can’t be applied to TDH, who’s writing a reasoned critical book review (albeit at an excruciating pace). Now his reasons may be wrong-headed, so I don’t mind, and indeed would welcome, reasoned critical comments on TDH’s review. But if all you’ve brought to the party is the weak tea of “I don’t like Somerby so I don’t like his review,” then you might as well just go ahead and write your own glowing review of the memoir for your own blog.<br /><br />The odd thing, though, is that I couldn’t remember telling anyone in the comment threads of TDH’s “DEATH BY NOVEL” series to write their own blog, so I went back and looked at my comments. Couldn’t find it. Perhaps I missed it. You could check, which would require a happy hour or so perusing my peerless prose.<br /><br />What I did find was this comment of mine from 10/24/19:<br /><br /><i>TDH’s reasoning may be good, bad, or indifferent. If the last two obtain, why not heave yourself off your fainting couch and set him straight?</i><br /><br />To which an Anonymous Ignoramus replied<br /><br /><i>Get off the fainting couch, set Bob straight, and ignore <b>deadrat telling you</b> Bob can write anything he likes on his blog and <b>if you have a problem with it you can get your own blog</b>.</i><br /><br />Was that you, Sparky? Did you just attribute to me your own incorrect paraphrasing of my position?<br /><br />If so, you get an F.

Here’s a tiny challenge you won’t be able to meet: In no more than several sentences accurately summarize TDH’s criticism of Miller’s memoir. In two or fewer sentences accurately summarize my position on the memoir.<br /><br />You will lose points for guessing at motivations; you will gain points for direct quotes that support your summaries.<br /><br />Go ahead; it’ll be fun.

“It is possible to accept personal respon...<i>@deadrat<br />“It is possible to accept personal responsibility without admitting to blame.”<br /><br />That’s not a thing, at least not legally.</i><br /><br />Of course it’s a “thing” “legally.”<br /><br />If you use what are called “fighting words” and the result is that you’re assaulted by the person you provoked, your words aren’t going to provide your assaulter an affirmative defense, but they may well be responsible for mitigating his sentence.<br /><br />In civil law, contributory negligence in some jurisdictions may bar you from recovering any damages, even if a large majority of the blame belongs to another party.<br /><br />People involved in a crime can go to prison for felony murder even if they were nowhere near the scene of the homicide and even if the killing wasn’t intentional.<br /><br />It’s just not a “thing” “legally” in Turner’s prosecution. And, in any case, personal responsibility needn’t have anything to do with legal liability.<br /><br /><i>Is that what Turner’s defense tried to argue? All those drunken rapists out there will be thrilled to hear about this novel concept.</i><br /><br />No, I think he tried to argue consent. Drunken rapists can’t excuse their actions by pointing to their victim’s failure to take steps to safeguard themselves. Drunken rapists can’t even use their own intoxication to escape criminal liability. Do I have to explain why, again?<br /><br /><i>Why would you or Somerby characterize the memoir as flawed? It seems it is flawed in your views because it didn’t say what Somerby wishes it said,</i><br /><br />I’m not saying the memoir was flawed. I haven’t read it, so I can’t say. TDH has been telling you for over a week why he thinks it’s flawed.<br /><br /><i>A memoir is supposed to be a highly personal view of oneself and one’s experiences.</i><br /><br />Sure, I hope you’ll buy my memoir. It’s a highly personal view of myself and my experiences fighting alongside Teddy Roosevelt at San Juan Hill.<br /><br /><i>And it’s a contorted sort of logic that says “nothing is Miller’s fault” … and then criticizes Miller for not taking “personal responsibility”….</i><br /><br />Could Miller have done anything at all that night that would lessened Turner’s blame for his criminal liability in sexually assaulting her while she was unconscious?<br /><br />Could Miller have done anything reasonable that night that would have made her less vulnerable to sexual assault?<br /><br />I’ll bet you answered no to the first question and yes to the second. How much “contortion” did it take?<br /><br /><i>Most normal people aren’t in much of a frame of mind to forgive their attackers.</i><br /><br />Sure.
