But considering that the "bombs" would probably be Morthra-sized turds (do moths poop?), I wouldnt say "fine" with such a light heart. [:-]

On second thought..we have tens of millions of neds over here too. They call themselves Democrats.
Really? Track pants tucked into tube socks makes you think of Democrats?

I don't believe it. Someone actually asked that question (and got answers, both direct & related) about moth poop ... [X(]ORIGINAL: Onime No Kyo

Short answer - yes, moths poop. Guess you have to scale it up to Mothra-level for it to be 'effective' though [:D]

Nope. They're oblivious to it.
Speaking of ned idiots, I was at Edinburgh zoo with the GF years ago and we were at the Tiger enclosure, a beautiful big cat with eyes full of true intelligence was within, regarding the humans on the other side of the glass wall with something like utter disdain and it wasn't hard to see why. There was a full ned family: dad, mum, two kids all wrapped up in kappa tracksuits and nikes. Dad ned was banging away on the glass, regardless of the huge signs all over the place asking him to refrain from doing just that as it upsets the animals. After a minute or two he turns to me and says "This Lion's pure crap, by ra way. it wilnae bark or anything." [:(]
I hate zoos. The wrong creatures are always locked up in them.
What is the phylogenetic relationship between Neds and Gumbys? Is it as simple as one's a Scot the other an Englishman?

Now i am really confused....what happened to the war?
If Mothra is buzzing Sara in Washington, then i figure it must have gone bad somewhere. I need to re-read the last few pages.

One of the serious problems in planning the fight against American doctrine.... is that the Americans do not read their manuals, nor do they feel any obligation to follow their doctrine

I'm reading George Macdonald Fraser's book 'Quartered safe out here' about his time in the Burma campaign.
I've just finished it. An excellent read. Funny, poignant and opinionated.

Yes, but I have to warn you a lot of it's written in the Cumbrian dialect and might be hard for non-English speakers to read.
