Re: Rete are you ok?

It's not been too bad here in Queens. My husband works for the city and is on the storm response team so he's watching the wind like a hawk. Will likely all be over by 6pm though. I'm glad the storm...

Re: Border/Passport Control in Iceland and Belgium

Sorry you had to go through that Rete, it sounds horrendous. I had a couple of similar experiences of being separated, yelled at and searched at JFK. Treated with utter contempt by the TSA or whoever...

Re: The scourge of unwanted phone calls

My aging parents get these constantly on their landline in the UK. It drives them bananas, but there doesn't seem to be anything they can do about it. They are on the Do Not Call list as well, not...

re: Ancestry DNA

They can challenge it but surely there's not much they can say against it being 100% match to his DNA? They caught the BTK from obtaining a sample of his daughter's DNA from her pap smear test, I'm...

Re: Florida shooting

Reminds me of something I saw on a different site, "Every black man in the US needs to go out and buy an AR-15 assault rifle. They'll be banned by Tuesday."

Re: British accent disease

Personally, 9 times out of 10 I get asked whereabouts in Australia I'm from. Even had one guy get quite huffy with me when I told him he was wrong and I wasn't actually an Aussie. Also been asked if...

Re: Florida is the worst state in the nation

Re: Areas to rent in Manhattan or Brooklyn

Have a look on Zillow.com and avoid Williamsburg. Park Slope is probably the closest to what you're looking for. But if your hubs is making less than $100k it might not be do-able, as it's very...

Re: Dunkirk movie

Mark Rylance's acting gets me every time. His vulnerability, his decency, the Britishness of going off to save a sea full of soldiers in a shirt and tie, it's so powerful to me. It feels like...
