They still make you wait here. You have to have the PAL to buy any gun, but a PAL for restricted firearms to get a handgun. Even if you have a permit to transport , as I have, that only applies between your residence and the range, and you need a special one to take it home. You order or pay for your gun and then the store arranges for the permit to transport it home. Despite already having purchased several handgun I had to wait about a month for my last one. |

My company always paid us our salary and you're probably right, the bookkeeping was probably too much of a hassle over such a pittance. |

There is still a lot of work to be done. One of my clients was bicycling around Europe when his wife fell ill. She had to have an ambulance pick her up. The docs said that it appears that it was not a heart attack but they wanted to keep her in for an extra day to monitor her. My dad slipped on the ice in Sweden and shattered his ankle. He required several surgeries and months of rehabilitation. These kinds of hospitalizations would probably cost 10s of thousands of dollars in the US. In the end, my dad had to pay 50 dollars and my client paid about 100 dollars. As anybody with a rational mind can see, the American healthcare machine is critically ill. ==== That is frightening :((( |

A lot of people think that it's unfair that they should have to pay into such a system. They got theirs but it just kills them that other people might be able to get medical coverage at reduced rates. These people lack some basic humanity. OTOH, they should see what the top 1% thinks of the 99%. They see them as trash and seek to squeeze profit from the trash. A national healthcare system would impede them in their goals. Luckily, most of the 99% are easily manipulated. |

That sounds exactly like me. This weekend I'll be working, but I had Thursday and Friday mainly off. I always do my work before any fun stuff, because I don't like working with a deadline breathing in my neck. |

But if you're poor, you're stuffed. |

I said in my post that they grow giant avocados in Australia. I also addressed the fact that contrary to the belief of people that have never had a giant avocado, it's quite tasty - just like a regular avocado. Yoose guys can't even understand simple ideas.

But your fist (one's fist) isn't that small, whereas your country is. You can easily grow your avocados in regions where they do well. I'm sure you do. |

I've seen techniques offered on ricing cauliflower without a ricer but... No thanks i want a ricer. -- Daniel Visit me at: gopher://gcpp.world |

I steam them for a short time and serve them with whatever else I am making:) Please share whatever you come up with? |
