Romeo and Juliet

My friend Correna works in the Soskundi language in East Sepik Province. During a visit to the language area she met a guy named Romeo. Jokingly, she said to him, "Oh, where is Juliet?" With a straight face, Romeo replied, "Well, she decided to stay at home today." Yes, there really was a Juliet, and yes, she was actually married to Romeo. Neither of them had ever heard the classic story. I guess it didn't end so tragically after all!
