I'm with Leo on this one. All countries are beautiful at least somewhere. At least I've never seen one that wasn't nice somewhere. You've just got to be selective in where you look.

Morning tithe...[&o]

Off to Phoenix for a respite from the interstellar space temperatures. [makes weighing gesture with hands] Hmmm...80F and sunny or 10F and cloudy? Which one do I want for 10 days? Hmmm...[&:]
You're going to stick out like flamingo in the Antarctic. At 70F you'll be in shorts and a short sleeved shirt and they'll putting on jackets. Go to Flagstaff and try to blend in.[;)]

The concept of "Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter" sounds sooooo cheesy, but the book is actually quite entertaining. Will be interesting to see what the film is like...


So that is why he was a rail splitter? He was creating wooden stakes?

Hi all,

Thaw...

Although it was -10 degrees during th night the temperatures rose to +5 degrees Centigrade during the day... all that 30-50 cm of white snow is now turning into brown dirty water...

Tithe. I'm with T on this. Can't say I saw any part of Haiti or Somalia that looked even slightly inviting.

No it's not. Even 'dumpy' central Asian republics have some eyecandy in 'em. I've never been to one that wasn't nice somewhere. Haven't been to Somalia or Haiti, so I can't really comment.

If it's all the same with you, I'll be my own arbiter of beauty, thanks.

Can't speak of the former, can of the later. Normally I'd agree with you CB, but in the case of those two "not nations" , I'm with T. [:D]

So long as he is axing a Cullin.. I'll go see it.

I have seen some downtown northern US cities that I really didn't care for, either.

Hi all,

Thaw continues... it is -5 degrees Centigrade during night but above +5 degrees Centigrade during day... dirty water everywhere... unfortunately during night all that water freezes up and in the morning we have ice... people are falling everywhere and breaking arms and legs...

This morning while visiting my mother in law (and advising her not to go out in this conditions) I skidded myself but luckily I was acrobatic enough and caught myself nicely... nothing broken or twisted... [X(]

Well, it's day 4 of my new job. Getting used to civilian government. I thought the military was inefficient. [8|] My core hours are 0900-1500. Other than that, I set my schedule. I work 0630-1500. Miss traffic both ways. [:D] On Monday, my boss showed me to my cubicle. Nothing at all in it, not even a chair! [:D] They scrounged me a chair and requested a computer and phone from the government. The goal is to get it in 2 weeks. A couple of guys who sit near me said it took them 3 months. [X(] I spend a lot of time looking over their shoulders asking questions but my boss still hasn't decided what I'm going to do. I guess he has time to decide. [:D] When I'm not looking over someone's shoulder, I spend a lot of time plotting my next turn, on paper of course. [:D]

Off to work!
