He has a masters in sociology. He was wearing a suit, and his long hair was briushed to the back, so you can't tell that he was the wizard. My daughter listened to him and says he was very clever. <br /><br />I didn't listen to him because I can't get over him coming to my house univited, and every time, we have a census, he takes a group of his followers in a boat so they don't have to be counted.<br />Of course, the police will wait the next morning to get them to be counted.<br />He lost credibility when he "ran" away after the earth quake.Ann, Chen Jie Xue 陈洁雪https://www.blogger.com/profile/04399207312968010460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14919964.post-39976470653230649922011-06-21T19:41:27.022-07:002011-06-21T19:41:27.022-07:00We both haed Winnipeg!
