Good grief, is it EVER going to stop raining???


Don't worry T , The North Pole will be ice free in the summer months in 4 or 5 years, then we start working on Greenland and when that is gone, your neck of the woods should be very hot and dry.

If Greenland melts, his neck of the woods will be under water.

Yeah, but afterall, Denmark owns it. The water is their's anyway. And Copenhagen can be the new Venice, the New Amsterdam and the new St Tropez. (Damns, canals and with warm weather they can stay were they are in the summer! You need to look on the bright side, my gloomy martian friend!)

Ooh! I wonder if we can sue the Danes for the coastal flooding that may occur when the icesheets on Greenland melt? Problem solved!

Here's something I didn't know. Jimmy Stewart flew a single B-52 combat mission in Vietnam.

Hey, that is interesting.

Was it a combat mission or a "combat mission" ala to be Pres. Johnson in WWII?

He flew at the head of an Arc Light mission in 1966, bombing Viet Cong positions; sounds like a combat mission to me.

Stewart was in the Air Force Reserve, and had requested a combat assignment for his yearly period of duty. That's why he was in Vietnam.

Wow! I got a Nigerian email in Russian.

You'd think those boys from the Baltic would have a better command of the language...70 years of soviet occupation and all.

Hey, nice try Brother Mynok !
Hmm, this is not a try in fact; this is a success

Next time you want to salute someone in a cool way, you can also try
"Salut mon pote"

I know....Wish I'd had more time to spend on it before heading overseas. It was quite frustrating to require a translator.

I'm not surprised. Besides being much decorated B-24 pilot and commander, and a true patriot, his son, a USMC force recon LT was killed there early in the war.

For some of us. I couldn't learn French if my life depended on it. I've been trying since I was 13.

But you could open the first International Temple of the Toe. After Terminus moves to West Covina and establishes his church, that is.
