- Rudyard Kipling
Herding Cats explains them further, here is my abbreviated version.
What – is the scope of [...]

Jag höll ett tal till min bror när han och Ann gifte sig den 25 mars 2006. Det slutliga talet blev lite annorlunda en denna, version 0.9:
Best mans tal
Jag blev självklart väldigt glad när Erik bad mig att bli hans best man. ”Bäste man” på engelska, det låter väl inte så tokigt?

In Justine, the first book in the Alexandria Quartet we zero in on Justine, a mysterious and alluring nymphomaniac with dubious origin.
