The usual suspects for a suicide bomb?

[Grollub]

According to the newsies, it seems so.

The newspapers are putting up warlike headlines. This is the first suicide bomber ever in Sweden.

So angels are aliens because of a passage in the bible that says that angels mated with humans and produced a race of "giants" that went really giants but half-humans with superpowers and we know this because no fossils of giants have ever been found. [X(]

Well, I made it through Ocean's Eleven and Twelve, but it's too late for Thirteen tonight.  Thread, Catherine Zeta-Jones is a beautiful woman!  [&o]

Hi all,

ORIGINAL: Aces8

Its a very cold -11 Degrees Centigrade here right now [:(]

Yesterday morning we had +15 degrees Centigrade and sunny day with blue skies - it was like that until noon - then the temperature dropped to 0 degrees Centigrade and ice rain began to be replaced by blizzard...

This morning it was -7 degrees Centigrade...

Old(er) people have problems with such drastic temperature changes in less than 24 hours (more than 20 degrees centigrade)...


Leo "Apollo11"

I know that I sure do.

Morning tithe. Another early day in a very trying week. Thread I hope next week is easier. [>:]

I know the feeling. This last week or so has beat me up, pushed me in the guter, and pissed on my head.

Not that I am complaining........

I'm okay with English food...most of it; not okay with cheese in can.

When your are 6 or 7 years old it is sort of fun.

Rather disgusting now. Even if drunk, not that I would know of course.

Lima beans are kind of nasty also.

Don't care much for collard greens or okra either.......................

Now as a good Southerner, I must admit that I like all three.

At least now , our Food Tradition entered Unesco Immaterial Patrimoine.

French food is very good and deserves protecting from bad copies. I once tried "Wisconson Brie". Don't.

But has a Frenchman ever experienced a box of Velveeta and a bottle of Ripple. That is an American experience that can never be forgotten.

Or Boones Farm Strawberry Hill.

Don't ask.

Velveeta + jalapenos + chips = bastardized nachos (tasty). Don't know about the Ripple tho, still have long ago memories of MD20/20 and Boone's Farm. Not good memories mind you.

My memories along those lines are both quite hazy, and very favorable.

Good Morning guys [:)] I saw a flurry tonight its a nice balmy -2 degrees centigrade right now here in New England.

Well, that sounds swell. We're expecting 11 inches (~27cm) of the white stuff today. Tomorrow's temperatures-with wind chill-will be about -30F (~-30C). Thank THREAD that internet (and electricity) working!

ETA: Snow forecast just upgraded to 18 inches snow, with 35 MPH winds. Blizzard warnings in effect. Somehow, I just KNOW that Bruce is going to chime in and explain to everyone what the temperature is in Florida today. [:D]

For us here in the South it is about to get cold. High Sunday in the low 30's, even a chance for snow. Nothing for you I know, but cold for here this early in December.

I am drooling over WitE but need an extra day each week to fit it in. "Russian skies go on forever" to quote Solzhenitsyn.

I bought it, downloaded it and fooled with it a bit. Looks nice if you like the Russian front.

ORIGINAL: Terminus

Things have tapered off a bit since WitE came out. Given that it's the weekend, and there's some sort of American handball game going on, it's amazing there's anybody here at all.

In other news, tonight saw a failed suicide bombing in Stockholm, Sweden. Luckily, only the bomber died.

handball ...[:)]

I am not quite sure why I think so, but it seemed odd to me that such a bombing occured in Sweden.
