    1. The house built with the cement of saliva falls to the whim of dew... 2. The twenty year old pounded yam sure burns the hand- but does it? Sin is a prophecy- it speaks into the future. Can the one who slept over his right validly complain about it 12years after? Is 'laches and acquiescence' a valid escape route from criminal prosecutions? Do crimes get statute-barred? Why is an allegation given a vacation and a gestation period? Why now? Why not now? Why not If not? Who suddenly awoke the Code of Conduct Bureau to their statutory responsibilities? 3. When strange bedfellows come together to form a formidable fortress to combat a common foe, uncommon interest will separate them after the victory is earned. Independent Brooms might fuse together as a bunch to sweep away the dirt of bad leadership, but a separation of each broomstick for personal achievement will make the floor dirty again...
