putting such truck? Do you mean setting store by? I've heard of "having truck with" but I've never heard the word used quite the way you are using it-

Strange I don't set great store in anything much anyone has to say- ergo- the boy belongs with daddy unless something substantial happens (like an ALJ judge finds this boy actually knows what asylum is and wants it...)

edit:for your lexicographical safety I have gone to my dictionary. Truck is used in the context of trade and barter- having dealing with- hence the "have truck with" usage. Putting truck in- is simply not apt. Unless you are using some interesting middle or old english definition- if you are I would love to know what it is/was. I love words.

I'm not sure exactly what you think X and I are putting "truck" into? I thought we were having a light moment in the midst of this zoo.
I saw a little of the Dalrymple -Geraldo interview and the man is a walking tabloid, not very bright and blatantly opportunistic, and apparently believing his own invented version of himself as savior.
It isn't the article but the man who is the joke. ALthough it becomes scary when people buy into his creation.

I don't know about the sexual abuse allegations. I thought someone here had posted that it was the family who first brought it up. I also don't know much about the nun's findings. Keeping up with everything would be a fulltime job-- !!!
