...three sheep near his North Carolina mountain home. A few seconds later, Farmer Graham picked himself up, cut and bruised, some fifty feet down the mountainside. The winner: a surly Suffolk ram, scoring three hits, no errors. Said Billy, from his bed of pain: "I turned the other cheek...
...months at a time, she was always within call. Freud himself was not told that examination of the removed tissues revealed cancer, although more surgery was soon necessary for "an unmistakably malignant ulcer in the hard palate which invaded ... the upper part of the lower jaw and even the cheek."
