It depends how easy that will be on Earth after we're done with it.

Because I married an Australian.

I didn't mean to say everybody has to emigrate. But it would be good
if some people opened their horizon a bit.

Hey, I've been to Canada. That's totally different from
the northern U.S. ;)

I know people that have never gone more than 20 miles from home.
Everything they need is in the neighborhood and they saw no reason to go
anywhere. When I lived in Philadelphia, that distance could be reduced
to 5 miles.

Four countries in Europe, three in North America, at least 30 of our
states. Good to see how others live.

Really? We still use nntp, even the goggle monster
depends on it, which is why you get my posts.

Yes indeed I can to even on a VT100 terminal. Of course I
can detect posts via the goggle monster, no carriag returns.

A pity that that standard browsers are becoming rare.

I am not stuck in the past, I have an understanding of
systems and understand that with standards, we can access more.
Just as many "old" computer languages like COBOL and FORTRAN
will compile and run on modern hardware.

Ah the joys of monopoly and all the choice that takes

No need for paper. AI bought a brass bristled brush for cleaning the
grill grates. I think it would work well to replace TP. Just rinse
it out. Save the trees!

It strikes me that you have "an attitude and a chip on your shoulder".

Of course not. He still tries to get in there. We didn't have this
problem when we had our other dog. He had a cushion on the other side of
the room and was too big to fit between the chairs, but the new one used
to go and lie on the cushion just to piss off the older dog.

Grow up... it was 100% your fault, and most obviously your dog's IQ is
leagues above yours.

Recliners kill cats and small dogs too... have also been known to
decapitate small children. Recliners are banned in most European
countries.

>> Just like a "smashed potato" finished off

>I use a potato masher on mine.
 
I use a potato masher that lookes like a potato ricer.. i mash them in
the same pan I just used to fry pork chops. I posted a picture of my
refried black beans years ago but all the non cooks said it looked
like shit... little do the noncooks realize that all mashed beans
litterally look like shit.
 
Anyways cookware can stain from hard water... hard water will leave a
coating same as it does on toilets, tubs, shower heads and faucets,
with cookware it leaves a rough coating for black bean color to adhere
to. We have a water softener, it saves on having expensive plumber
bills. I've resolved all bean cooking problems by switching from dry
beans to canned beans. Canned beans are perfectly cooked, are a big
time saver, and cost less than dry beans, simply buy them in larger
size cans and or by the case and the price goes way down... the 40
ounce cans are perfect for yoose beaners. I keep very few dry beans
in the pantry, I keep dried peas and naturally some Navy beans. We
buy Goya black beans by the case. My wife grew up on black beans and
rice, that's almost the national dish of Belize... only thing missing
is gibnut. We like some beans in a tossed salad, also marinated three
beans salad, we both like garbansos in a tossed salad or as a
component in marinated beans. Canned beans are always ready and easy
to rinse... I don't rinse for refried beans and soups. Canned beans
save money but mostly they save a lot of kitchen time and cooking fuel
The last time I looked at the dry beans display I got sticker shock.

Shooting over people's heads allows the shooter to fire without exposing
himself to return fire. The fact remains that, if he was in the Waffen
SS, as you said, he was a member of a Nazi organization. You had to be a
Nazi to get into it.

There was conscription into the Wehrmacht. The Waffen SS was manned by
volunteers. In the early days it was open only to ethnic Germans.
