Big Pharma will win nothing from me as I never bought one of the tests
and I'm not going to start now with constant testing.

It's pointless to do so, why would you want to be tested if you feel
OK? Fear?

You didn't have to add that last bit. We'd have known anyway.

If I can't find my phone, I'll Google "Where's my phone?" This will give me the approximate location of the phone and will also cause it to ring. It's a useful feature. I can also wipe out the contents of the phone remotely. That's a scary feature.

There can be quite big differences between breeds. I've always had
Dorpers, which originate from Sth Africa, and are kind of goat like in
some ways. They don't require shearing, which is a big plus for me.

A few months ago, I also bought some Wiltshires, originating from the
Mediterranean. They also do not require shearing

You're right. That is why there are no Christian fundamentalists or
Catholics in the movement.

This is one of the few things I acknowledge about the US but will
never understand, the 'right to life' thing and it's association with
Christianity, US style. I mean, I know how it came to be, but how it
still persists is a little puzzling, when viewing it from a distance.

You didn't cook the asparagus until tender in butter? And where are the

I would assume not at this time of year, as they're in season in
Australia. I personally think canned would be better, unless you found
some really nice, well ripened fresh ones.

We can't all live in a nice climate. There wouldn't be enough room.
That's why I'd like to thank the people who live in places like Canada
and Siberia for their sacrifice.

I did consider that, but I'm unsure how such things are handled in
Canada. In Australia, doing that would be (at least initially) and
expensive process.

Yes, it's a massive waste of money, generally speaking. So many
interests trying to exploit the process and so many Olympics have been
nothing but a money pit for the hosts.
 
And what % of the population are really interested beyond 15 second
sound bites on the 'news'?

From my POV, that would be a good solution. And make the whole thing
self-funding. No government assistance. By that, I mean the Olympics
themselves. Not the athletes, they need government support.

No, he could not just ignore them. He had been served with the summons
so it would have been deemed to have been served. If he didn't show up
in court it would go ahead in absentia and there could be a big
settlement against him.
 
I thought that he did the right thing by contacting the vultures to let
know they had the wrong person. I don't blame him for refusing to give
them is date of birth. i suppose he could have told them the address he
found for the guy, which he was able to Google, but he wasn't being paid
to find the guy they were suing.
 
He gave them the opportunity to correct their error and they got snotty
with them. If it had been me and and they had treated me like that I
would have waited until a day or two before the statute of limitations
was up and it would have been too late for them to correct it.

It must be worth it for certain countries. Either financially or for
marketing reasons or to pretend they're not an ugly fascist regime,
like the Chinese. Maybe it's good for tourism?

When the cops bust into your house, make sure that you're not holding a gun. To be extra safe, don't ever be inspecting guns while at home. Don't even be near a gun while at home - and always try to avoid being a negro at all times.

No mowers, appliances or garbage, but I do have too many cars. I'm sure
I wouldn't get away with it if it were a visible lot. Not that I'd want
to anyway, that would be embarrassing.
