BREAKING: Islamists in Nigeria who kidnapped 416 women and children three days ago, say that ultimatum has expedited and they will begin executing the hostages.
There has not been a word about this in the media for the last three days.
Now theyβre starting executions.
A young family moved into a house next door to a vacant lot.
One day a construction crew turned up to start building a house on the empty lot.
The young family's 5-year-old daughter naturally took an
interest in all the activity going on next door, and spent much of
each day observing the workers.
Eventually, the construction crew, all of them gems-in-the-rough, more or less adopted her as a kind of project mascot. They
chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and
lunch breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make
her feel important.
At the end of the first week they even presented her with a
pay envelope containing a couple of dollars. The little girl took this
home to her mother, who said all the appropriate words of admiration and suggested that they take the two-dollar "pay" she had received to the bank the next day to start a savings account.
When they got to the bank, the teller was equally impressed
and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own paycheque at such a young age. The little girl proudly replied, "I worked last week with the crew building the house next door to us."
My goodness gracious," said the teller, "and will you be working
on the house again this week, too?"
"Well," the little girl replied, "I will if those lazy b*stards at Bunnings ever deliver the f*cking bricks
