Hello BigV

Hello & OK are trashy "celeb" mags for people with so little going on in their own lives that they have to waste them watching other peoples'!!!


I am indeed indeed in London - thankyou for your concern. Yet more bomb alerts & a palpable sense of fear on the Tube this morning. After years of IRA bombs, as Londoners we were relatively OK about 7/7, partly because we thought we'd had our attack after NY & Madrid, but there's a definite sense that we're in for the longhaul now.

The police did shoot a suspected bomber this morning, which was a bit shocking, so soon after yesterday's attacks!

Actually, the gerbil isn't EATING the paper...it's shredding it. I used to have a whole colony of gerbils and know their habits well. They shred paper and the like to make bedding for their nests.

brian, the little bit that i know about you + now knowing that you owned a colony of gerbils... nah, maybe i don't really want to know. :o

:lol: :sheep: :worried:

:biglaugha

I had lots of gerbils too over the years I was a kid, and it was AMAZING how fast they would chew up a toilet paper or paper towel roll...I always wondered how come they never got cramps in their jaws like I would when I chewed gum too long.

Reminds me of a book I once saw where this person allowed cats to shred furniture on purpose and then anylized it as if the it were a piece of art and cat were an artist. As if the cat had a cognitive thought in it's little kitty head. You know what the cat was thinking when it was shredding the couch? Must....shred....couch....must...shred...couch...must...piss...on...couch...

I love cats... they taste like chicken.

I haven't thought of it in a while, but the previous comment reminded me of the Twilight Zone episode To Serve Man.

:yum:

I that the eposode where someone screams "it's a cookbook! It's a cookbook!"

Not really, considering there are probably tens of thousands of copies still in use in the Philadelphia School District.

Probably pretty popular in Texas too since it probably doesn't mention evolution.

If you want a copy, here it is.

Is this the same guy that they say wasn't one of the bombers? I read this on the news yesterday. Jean Charles de Menezes, the 27 year old Brazilian.

Was it necessary to shoot him 5 times after they pinned him? (Bear with me, it's not an angry question, I was just wondering) I could see it if they thought he would have pulled a trigger while still alive. Plus, he ran. If he was innocent, why did he run? I read that the police will use deadly force in order to save lives. If I were the cops there, I probably would have reacted the same. He was wearing suspicious clothing, he ran into the subway, and the threats and bombings going on in London and places elsewhere in the world.

What a horrible age we live in. I only hope it gets better.

The people that could use that book can't click that link. Probably don't have a PC......or electricity for that matter.

As far as I'm concerned they can flush all the bibles and korans they want but never, ever destroy a science book....or porn. :lol:
