... more schoolwork than he'd ever done in England. He gets a tutor in the form of an old, old faun with a pince-nez and a seemingly never-ending stack of books, some of them, he's sure, that predate the White Witch. When he goes complaining to Susan, she just raises an eyebrow at him and says, "As if the rest of us aren't doing as much or more, Ed." And commentfic from the other day . ...
..., open terrain, mountainsides and deserts. They have round pupils; unusual for a cat, and have wide-spaced ears and broad heads that give them an owlish appearance. They are active at night and mostly predate upon pika and other rodents, as well as hares and birds. The Pallas cat doesn’t do well in captivity, as it breeds okay, but has a weakenedimmune system from living in isolated environments,...
... as it is somewhat sensible. Probably the most crushing remark that is with me from Alan is the thing he said sometimes daily. That we'd grow old and be dreadheaded artiststogether. My desire for dreads predate Alan. But that statement was new in my little world. But the PhD desire predated it all to almost 5 years old staring at these ants in the grass. Face down, lying on my stomach in the ...
...THE OMNIPOTENT AUTHOR: “Olumpus” Police? What is this thing’s fascination with replacing every vowel with a “U”? It’s like Woll Smoth’s evil twin! THE 80’s: Or it would be, if this didn’t predate Woll Smoth by a couple of decades. *smirk* THE OMNIPOTENT AUTHOR: ….You know what? SCREW YOU! How can I be expected to make era-appropriate jokes about this OAV? I never even lived through any of the 80...
... is interesting." Dean brings the map to Sam, spreading it out in front of him. "So check this out. From the reports I have that say where the victim was before he went crazy, the ones that predate the meteor were scattered all through the area. But since the mid-eighties there hasn't beena single report from this zone here." He traces a circle with his finger. "Now look at this." He fishes out ...

... think that a particular translation is the word of God, more accurate than any other translation (including the earlier translations from which it was originally translated) or the Jewish holy books that predate it by several centuries. For some reason (insert your own!), you're not just confident of your own book's superiority but openly hostile to the pretenders. They need power exercised over ...
... invigorating and humiliating to ride the back of something so huge, to look up in a whirlpool so deep. Muir’s God lives here somewhere, in the cycles of rock and snow and woody growth that far predate man’s self-consciousness and need nothing from him for their continuation.
It was a fine reading, and I hope Dan’s book gets the attention it deserves. It’s a unique and important work.

...wineglasses that I got at Arby's during a holiday giveaway several years ago and I swear you can't tell. It's my little secret. No there aren't pictures of the Arby's Oven Mitt etched on them. These predate the Oven Mitt anyhow. *note* Do not link me to porn of the Arby's Oven Mitt and the Hamburger Helper Glove. Been there, done that, bought the T-shirt. Thank you. Well that's about all.

He had been noting, also, the churchyard which appeared well-inhabited and tremendous in size considering the history of the town did not predatetwenty years.
