More Irony
From recent archives: "US Vice-President JD Vance has launched a scalding attack on European democracies, saying the greatest threat facing the continent was not from Russia and China, but "from within". It had been expected that Vance would use his speech at the Munich Security Conference to addres...

And it has only been a month
The President of Alternative facts asserts that Canada relies on the US for defence. It would be true to say that we rely on NATO countries for defence. And to be fair, we haven't met our NATO spending target. It would also be true to say that the US has never actually come to Canada's defence while...

Seeing that this thread asks the question, "Whatever happened to...", and since I have been away for a while, I have to ask, "Where are the administrators?

Re: What happened to?
Tis I liberty, the one and no one (for those who remember). I um, took a break. It seemed a tad caustic here-abouts and the fun barometer was on empty. The atmosphere seems much nicer now and so I thought I'd put my big toe back in. To answer your opening post. Andy is to be found on facebook. I thi...

Re: The Board Rules
Friends should always welcome friends.
People who are made to be alone are – keep up on the logic here – are alone.
It seems to me that at least one draw card to web forums is to either attract, or create an outcast.
Alas, some things never change.
Good- by again.

Re: Deleted a "user" who had made a post
I can’t for the life of me, see any reason why anyone would have seen this as cause to make a nasty (and clearly, uncalled for) reference to a poster who hadn’t even entered the fray.
Once again, I just don’t get it.
Kindly, do not respond to this post.

Unbelievably sick person still at large
Source This is in the local news. In fact, the road mentioned is just below us. So it is in French, but you can use Google to translate it. It’s so disgusting that it sounds like one of those fake stories that get e-mailed about. Until I can get some more information, all I have is this one link. O...

Re: A good beer and a nice Stilton cheese
"Traditionally the whey from cheese making would have been fed to pigs. We wondered if it could be used for other purposes and Belvoir Brewery has now made a new beer." Now that is the best endorsement I’ve ever heard. Hey! We made a beer out of it because the pigs grew tired of it. Seriously, I th...
Re: breakfast
I think I would prefer to go hungry than to have left over cold pizza for breakfast.
Fresh out of the oven would be ok.
Actually, that would be more than ok. But leftovers are not for breakfast.

I don’t know about Korea and Taiwan, but that jet is pointed right into the same direction that a big sign with a “B” on it is pointing.
You don’t suppose it is coming here do you?

Re: The Turkey of My Discontent
Yet another nice day. Perhaps a harbinger for the new year, or a cruel introduction to January as usual. Yet I have stopped complaining. I even enjoyed lunch in the solarium.

Re: Cornish Blue the best in the world
Intelligent people would look at a lump of cheese that has mould growing on it and have the common sense to throw it out. It doesn’t have to be cheese either. If it has acquired the signs of alien life forms, it has to go. I like cheese. I once purchased a massive wheel of extra old cheddar because ...
