But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

I'm always called "norteamericana" which obviously means North American, which is interesting since Mexico is also in North America. Hubby calls me guera. Also been called just americana. Technical term used in Mex. is estadounidense which means United States-ian.

in Thailand I'm

1. a farang (fal-ang). meaning a white foreigner.

2. then I'm American when they ask me where I'm from

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."
