1 A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small. The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale. Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible. The little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah". The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went to hell?" The little girl replied, "Then you ask him". 2 A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She would occasionall…

Foreign Language to learn?

@dead_x_12 is getting close to high school and he is starting to consider which foreign language class to take. His options are Spanish, French or Russian. Which would you choose? I think he should take Spanish because far more people in the USA speak that than the other 2, he is leaning towards Russian (dunno why) but it could have future opportunities if he were to really get into it.

Velum, I'm not really sure that it's significant enough to to be posted in the GTA Online category, because it was a thought I just had. "You're such a Cheetah, I saw you hacking, Hearse the evidence. See? I stabbed you with my Blade 3 times and you didn't die. Stop hacking you Faggio stop!!! Stop putting Bullets in me while I'm exposing you Hexors! TomMonroe, imma report you to Rockstar and make an Exemplar out of you, for I am Zion Cabrio the Dominator." "Lol, says someone in a Vader-like costume from the LTS DLC, your such a Jester. You can't kill this Rebel scum, and Emperor Palpatine will be sure to be Thrusting you with his lightSabre tonight." …

Let's get to know each other a little better. List 3-5 interesting facts about you that not many people know. You don't have to share anything personal. I'll start... 1) I'm terrified of bees. 2) I enjoy hiking. 3) I've sprained both my knees numerous times, all from separate occasions, so I have knees of a 70 year old woman... maybe worse. 4) I had Lasik eye surgery done in June 2013. (best decision ever!) 5) I love beaches. If I could afford a beach house, I'd have one.

Funny thing is even now I still get excited about my birthday -- also get excited about my kids birthdays -- get scared about my wife's b-day (dont know how she is going to react to it, and never know what to get her)... Anyway, back to my birthday -- the main reason why I always loved my birthday is because of the surprise b-day presents of course...

I mean someone gives you present by …

If you had the cash to do it and could get a week or month of work where would you go and why? I would love to go see Egypt and France. Egypt because the pyramids fascinate me and France because that is where my family comes from back in ye olden days. Can't say Paris interests me much, but more the rural areas. That to me is where you meet the real people and not the tourist scammers.

A thread where you can get out your frustrations and rant about whatever. Though not anything crew related. Keep that shit private with the people involved. I'll start, So since the financial crisis begun there has been nothing but budget cuts on the school programs, the medical system, the care for the elders and the most vulnerable in my little country which is otherwise world-renowned for its social welfare system and being one of the least corrupt countries. And what are our already overpaid members of the parlament doing these days.. well, they are planning to give themselves a fucking 15-30% raise along with even more bonuses. Dickheads!

10 worst jobs in history

1. Leech collector – Until the late 19th century, leeches were in high demand for medicinal bloodletting – the withdrawal of very small amounts of blood from a patient as therapy. Despite the demand, leech-gatherers were poorly paid. Worse still, they often collected the leeches by letting them latch on to their own legs – a practice through which they could lose dangerous amounts of blood. 2. Snake milker – While we’re on dangerous jobs, here’s one that still exists today. Snakes have long been milked for their venom, which is then used to create antivenin to treat snake bites. One renowned milker, Bill Haast, survived 172 venomous snake bites during …

- 717 views
Story: So me and my friend were coming up with the most ridiculous gun attachments which is pretty laughable in a lot of the cases. How to play: In this game, you have to use a weapon that normally is impossible or out of the norm to add real/fake gun attachment. (By fake I mean stuff such as COD attachment, etc) *You can use a vehicle as your base as well* Ex. My carbon fibre knife with: -suppressor -40x scope -angled grip -pink camo -laser sight -bipod on the angle grip Vehicle example. My Lamborgini Segway with: -Chrome paint job …

249Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
Operation Mincemeat (2021) dir John Madden A WWII film focussing the efforts of British intelligence to trick Germany into thinking an upcoming major operation was going to happen somewhere else, so that they diverted defending forces away from the actual location. The basics are a true story. The characters are mainly the real people who were involved. It has a great ensemble cast. The main characters are two officers working for MI5, one from the navy and one from the air force, played by Colin Firth and Matthew McFadden, with Kelly MacDonald and Penelope Wilton playing their civilian assistants. It also features Johnny Flynn as the young Lt. Ian Fleming who narrates some scenes in a style that could well have been passages from his James Bond novels. You could, at a big stretch, almost class this as Bond film since it features characters referred to as M (head of MI5, Jason Issacs) and Q-branch (the gadget inventor, James Fleet). Simon Russel Beale also puts in a great performance as Winston Churchill. I have heard of Operation Mincemeat, knew the basics of it, that Ian Fleming was involved and what the outcome was. I don't think it's a spoiler to say the plan worked, as various characters in the film say that if it doesn't the allies won't win the war. The plan was to take the body of recently deceased man, a Welshman living rough in London called Glyndwr Michael, dress him in an officer's uniform, attach a brief case containing fake, but apparently top-secret documents, and then release it from a submarine such that it would wash up on a Spanish beach. Spain was neutral in WWII but under the regime of the Fascist, pro-n*zi, General Franco. So British intelligence knew that the contents of the brief case should find their way into the hands of German agents, before being returned to Britain, and thus the fake information would find it's way to Berlin. The operation they were planning for was the allied invasion of Italy, then Germany's ally. The fake information was one part of bigger plan to convince the Germans it was occupied Greece that was going to be invaded. The subsequent invasion of Italy is one of the lesser known parts of the war. Much is made, quite rightly, of the D-day landings, but that was not the first invasion of German controlled Europe, it was this invasion of Italy, nearly a year earlier. So it's nice to see a film about this aspect of the war, because there aren't very many of them. The film shows the meticulous level of detail the agents went to, creating a whole fake identity, Major William Martin, along with personal letters, a photo of a fiancé, etc. The plot does come across somewhat unbelievable at times and includes a completely unnecessary romantic sub-plot. Even if some of that is what actually happened, the way the films portrays this comes across as if the producers wanted to “s*x it up” and add these elements in because they thought the story of the planning and execution of the operation was not interesting enough. I was all set to give this a lower score than I did, but the last 30 mins or so redeemed it a little. What I found really interesting was, after the the plan had been put into action, the role British diplomats in Spain then had to play to make sure that the brief case of fake documents did indeed end up in German hands. Because after all the detailed and careful planning, it could have easily been undone by a Spanish official simply handing the brief case straight back to Britain, as was technically the correct thing for a neutral country to do, but not what they were supposed to do according to the pro-German Fascist regime in charge. There's almost none of the action you usually get in war films, until right at the end when we see an American infantry sergeant, a minor character introduced earlier, on board a landing craft, storming a Sicilian beach which was taken and held with relatively light causalities. All due to the success of Operation Mincemeat diverting German forces hundreds of miles away. 6 / 10- 2
