The most important part was the friends they made along the way, until a catastrophic case of the dropsies happened.

“65.16% of citizens allegedly supported these constitutional amendments.”

Yep. Sure. Uh huh.

I hope there will be enough economic pain to make a difference but I heard an analysis today pointing out that Russia currently has one of the lowest debt-to-GDP ratios in the world (under 20%, compared to many EU countries and the US that are around 100%) and therefore may be able to weather economic hardships for a long time through borrowing. If they can find oligarchs and friendly countries to borrow from, anyway. Let’s hope that China, for example, doesn’t help them out.

I like to have a spectrum of dishes to choose from

ETA: Don’t want to add too many posts so just going to respond to @Tamsin_Bailey below up here

Also, if you have a wide variety of choices presented to you from early on you don’t become a picky eater that insists on either chicken nuggets or buttered noodles, nothing else

Another one more.

E) Because that’s what the generation that raised them did.

We should probably wait a bit before adding an “all of the above”.

“The judge released him, but the sailor was charged.”

Luckily not needed!

If there is a defense fund though that would be great

I do know a film involving a land mine, a Bosniak film called No Man’s Land. It’s a black comedy about two Bosniak soldiers who end up between their lines and the Bosnian Serb lines after they get caught up in cross fire. Two Bosnian Serb soldiers think one of the guys is dead, and put him on top of a bouncing mine so that when his comrades come to take his body back, they get killed. And then it turns out that the guy on the mine is not dead. One of the two Serb soldiers gets shot by the other Bosniak, so then it’s the guy on the mine, the Bosniak and the Serb… much hilarity ensues, especially when the UN forces get involved…

The world needs more discomforting of billionaires. Kick ‘em- right in the yacht.

Also - we should all go to Mallorca to thank him properly. Should take about two weeks to do properly.
