They forgot El-ahrairah, for what use had they for tricks and cunning, living in the enemy's warren and paying his price?
I had weird dreams full of barnyard animals. Most of them wanted to kill me. The rest wanted food.
So much about life in a global economy feels as though it has passed beyond the individual's control--what happens to our jobs, to the prices at the gas station, to the vote in the legislature.
