- According to the 1991 census, 3.1% of the population of Belize (a tiny Central American country) is Mennonite. Also, some experts estimate that there are as many Belizeans in the USA as in all of Belize.
- Mom got a job in QA so she doesn't have to step back down to nursing. Go Mom!
- Baroque opera can be really sexed up without violating spirit of the original. And it can be funny, again while being true to the original.
- Hindi feminine nouns ending in -i form the plural in -iya--which, now that I think about it, is basically the same as in Romany.
- A Sahajdhari Sikh is one who doesn't follow all Sikh religious restrictions, particularly the one against getting one's hair cut.
