But there was no denying the upwelling of relief in Liberia’s beleaguered capital....

It probably also has to do with the fact that Pettis was born in Anaheim, California and went to high school in Orange, right by where the Anaheim Ducks of the NHL play. Now we just need to figure out which NFL player has the kid from The Big Green tattooed on his chest and we’ll be set....
