So, I'm enjoying my lunch: a bowl of oatmeal heavily infested with raisins and unsalted peanuts. I found it necessary to explain why oatmeal is the ideal food.
"Why?", I was asked.
"Well", I explained, "suppose I finish the oatmeal. Then, for some reason, I get nauseous. Well, if I manage to catch the puke in my original bowl, it not only looks the same as when originally prepared, but it's even still warm and ready to eat again!"

I had heard that oats were "food for Scotsmen".
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Sure is, I'm sure you will be able to find the TV adds from over the years on youtube, just search "Scotts Porridge Oats".....

The Arizona Diamondbacks (that's a Major League Baseball team to you heathens) had their Star Wars Day last month, many people/families dressed up, and there was a parade.
There was also a costume contest which a very young (5 or 6?) Luke and Leia won.

I keep forgetting that Americans continue to play Rounders even after they leave primary school...

That is why the blue entry pass the lady is wearing says Comic Con 4 day 2013.

I would agree with you but then we both would be wrong.

Yes. Increase the size of the picture and you, can read the blue entry pass.
The red one is too blurred to read.

No, I just fail to see the cause-and-effect indicated in your post.

How many people were wearing 4 day entry passes for Comic Con 2013 to The Arizona Diamondbacks Star Wars Day last month?
That would indicate to me that they were at Comic Con and not The Arizona Diamondbacks Star Wars Day event.
Maybe not so obvious to you?

Awesome...pink too!

What a moron.
Hopefully he will get everything he deserves - you have to be unbelievably stupid to even mention the "B" word in a airport terminal, let alone on the actual plane!

I have no issue with them directing a plane with a bomb to Manchester, but where was it supposed to go?

It was supposed to go to London, but those southern jessies get easily scared!
|
|

Ah, OK, London has enough bombs already.
I wonder whether or not the cliche "carrying bombs to London" will replace the old one about Newcastle.

We're not scared, its just that its preferable that Manchester gets blown up.

The real issue here is that the RAF only has 6 working fighter planes, none of which can reach London so they basically had to fly the Airbus nearer to Lincolnshire and have it circle around whilst the Typhoon caught up.

The lady doth protest too much!

And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like...
Oh look, it's a bomb!
