Re: Here we go again . . . San Bernardino

I heard yesterday that they had one in custody, but I haven't heard much about it since. Maybe he had noting to do with it, or maybe they're trying to keep it quiet for whatever reason.

Re: Here we go again . . . San Bernardino

The media might make a bigger deal out of terrorist acts, but that doesn't mean that people don't care about anything else, and that's what you're saying...I think. I don't understand how there could...

Re: Here we go again . . . San Bernardino

I don't claim to understand it. It seems to be a medieval ideology that has a powerful effect on people and drives them to commit extreme acts. I'm not talking about Islam as a whole, just these...

Re: Here we go again . . . San Bernardino

Re: Here we go again . . . San Bernardino

The FBI's joint terrorism task force has been called in. This is similar to what happened in Paris. They may or may not be connected to or inspired by ISIS. We'll have to wait and see what the...

Re: WTF in America

Re: Things that make you want to hurl on the spot

True story. At a local Wal-Mart a woman was caught stealing a package of pork chops. She had them concealed down the front of her pants, right next to her... you know. And after the police took her...

Re: Hello Newbie saying hi - What made you move from the UK?

Well, she actually lives in Stanley, which is right next to Newcastle. I don't have any problem understanding her on the internet. But she sent me some youtube videos of people speaking the Geordie...

Re: Hello Newbie saying hi - What made you move from the UK?

Although it's more a person I'm interested in than a place. But being a native, you know she's going to stress the positives and ignore the negatives.

Re: Hello Newbie saying hi - What made you move from the UK?

Well, she's been trying to teach me some of the Geordie slang. It's a pretty steep learning curve though. :o

Re: Hello Newbie saying hi - What made you move from the UK?

I don't know about moving over there, but I definitely have to visit. I know a girl in Newcastle whom I've been talking to for several months, and she's invited me. She sure makes it sound like a...

Yeah, the Bhopal disaster is highly relevant to this issue. Just more finger pointing, "yeah, but look what you people did!" You could argue this kind of stupid shit all the way back to when the...

Re: Would You Put England Flags on Your Car?

Nice turnaround. It's our fault for letting them drill offshore. Following the same line of reasoning, it's also our fault for trusting their competency. And who exactly is forgetting that the Valdez...

Re: True Friends.

A lot of it has to do with location. Overall, though, Brits are probably more welcome here than Americans are in the UK. But like I said, location is a factor. People where I live are not friendly to...
