3、 different ideas about the point. Africans traditionally tell stories that express the thoughts they have in mind, rather than stating the point clearly.

It has been so since the 1960s when packaged food first appeared with the label: store in the refrigerator.In my fridgeless Fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily.
