  1. I wonder where one would purchase fermented milk. I bet they don't carry that down at Publix.
  2. You might need to find a new translation program. This is what mine says. kefir 250 g * egg 1 pc * salt 1 tsp * vegetable oil 2 tbsp * flour 300 g * gov minced meat 500 g * bow 2 pcs *salt to taste * black, red pepper * water 100 ml *greens optional The only thing that's confusing about mine is I need two pieces of bow. Yours says that's an onion.
  3. Maybe in your state. Code enforcement sent me a letter. They were going to have a truck come and tollwayTOW AWAY the abandoned vehicle. What abandoned vehicle? My Bronco. It did not have a current plate. It was not insured. Therefore it was abandoned. I told them that it belonged to me, and it was parked on my property, so how could it be abandoned, and it was not being driven on the street so it did not need a plate or insurance. They told me it must be tagged and insured or it is considered abandoned and they will come and get it.
  4. It's a handy thing for a zombie invasion, as long as you remember the arming distance.

    Cats #3

    I read about some Indian tribe one time they considered crossed eyes a sign of beauty. So they would put a bead on the baby's nose, which had him watch it all the time and he grew up cross-eyed. That's what happened to that poor cat. That black spot on the end of his nose.
  6. Isn't that the way the military works? "Private, go do that!" "Why, sergeant?" "Don't ask why!! Do what you're told!!!"
  7. When referring to ammunition. I don't mean "point 22 long rifle" or "point 45 Colt". European designations. Do you say "five point fifty six" or simply "five fifty six"? "Seven point sixty two by thirty nine" or just "seven sixty two..."? I never speak the decimal point. I figure if whoever I'm talking to doesn't know what I mean by 762 by 39, saying 7.62 by 39 won't mean anything to him either.
  8. I see that frequently in British fiction. One of the Modesty Blaise novels, she's in Panama and the bad guy lays a trap for her with a machine gun, but she pops him between the eyes with a 25 caliber MAB. The local cop says that he will take the credit for shooting the bad guy, and she asks how he's going to explain away "the point two five bullets in him when you carry a point four five pistol ". I was reading something just the other day. Talking about the American bombers during World War II and how they were armed with "decimal five zero machine guns".
  9. Is it just me, or is her hand weird?
