Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev’s off-air comments that Russian Presidents are given a secret file about extraterrestrials living among us created much media interest. Most news reports claimed that Medvedev was simply joking. His apparent reference to the Men In Black movie as a source of information on a super secret agency that monitors extraterrestrials on Earth was commonly cited as key evidence that he was in fact joking. The reasoning is that no political leader would refer reporters to a comedy to clarify national policy. It has now emerged that Medvedev was not referring to the Men in Black comedy after all, but to a recent Russian television documentary titled “Men in Black” that reveals many details about an extensive cover up of extraterrestrial life visiting Earth.
However, a more accurate translation of what Medvedev actually said about the Men in Black phenomenon was: “You can receive more detailed information having watched the documentary film of the same name.” So Medvedev was referring to a Russian “documentary film” titled Men in Black, not the Hollywood blockbuster by the same name...
Russian Men In Black (MIB) documentary, a number of prominent UFO cases in Russia and the USA are discussed. The Roswell UFO crash is covered, along with a number of extraterrestrial abduction cases, and UFOs disabling nuclear weapons facilities. The documentary examines testimony that extraterrestrial bases have been established on Earth, and that some are in restricted US military areas with the full knowledge of the Pentagon. The documentary even goes on to seriously discuss President Eisenhower’s alleged meeting with extraterrestrials, where agreements were reached with some of the visitors giving them permission to take some of the Earth’s resources in exchange for advanced technology...

I have pH papers and check my soap when it's cured. The soap runs between 8-8.5, just a bit more caustic than a hard-boiled egg, which is pH 8.
I've been using my own soap for 13+ years, and these are my hands when I was 65:
Yes, that is a PS90, and that is the stamp on my hand from the gun show where Bryan and I bought it that day.
Ack! Had to look that term up. “Slight” is not what I found. I was hoping to see something that resembled hot chocolate. Maybe my search engine needs to be sanitized. Ack!
Thank you very much. Have sent the link to Mr. Sg (we’re right next to each other but frequently communicate via email and paper messages lol!).
Early in our marriage, we communicated via messages left on the fridge and by mobile phone. Old habits die hard.
Blowing up sounds extremely uncomfortable. If I can be of assistance in choosing an alternative, please send up a flare.
Shakespeare was a total gas, no? I was the only kid in my entire high school who thought so.
Good night. Parting in such sweet sorrow.
Sweet dreams, y’all!
I didn’t know how dedicated to the process you might be.
It’s possible to leach your own lye from hardwood ashes, and fireplaces are plentiful.
The fatty acids could be leftover cooking products. But, acquired this way, the pH of such products might be hard to determine.
That bit about the rubber gloves when you wash your hands, was originally supposed to be a joke.
Everyone knows rubber gloves wouldn’t hold up long using lye soap.
I suspect, if I were trying to communicate to his audience, Old Jeff would have to act as my interpreter.
I also think he was a very bright fellow. Using characters traveling in a pilgrimage, to tell stories to entertain each other, was an excellent way to weave a tapestry of tales into a longer work.
I have a scenario where people are traveling together for years on a star ship, and even with his example it didn't occur to me to do that!
We've gotten so used to the notion that travel is a boring waste of time that it doesn't occur to us to have passengers entertain each other, and yet the only really interesting thing going on, other than potential calamities, is the life story that each individual carries into that situation.
Those things follow you. And will continue to do so until you instruct one of them how to poitne..
Tornadoes are naturally inquisitive, don't you know..
Ah the urban dicktionary...
Before you write another star ship tale, travel across Canada by rail.
Yes, it is an old Soviet trick for controlling the weather on parade days.
I know it has been used here on several occasions when it is important that it just doesn’t rain.
The bag is cut down the sides then launched down the ramp.
This causes the cloud to ‘seed’ and rain a safe distance from your ‘parade’, sneaky eh?
*Snort* Just don’t give up, do ya.
When Bob makes a joke, it’s been MADE.
Chaucer was just writing in another language, as if it were German or Norwegian. However, his audience was just like us: educated working people with just a little extra time and money, such that they could learn to read and then buy, or borrow, a book.
I don’t recall calling you Shirley?? When I was young, I had an almost photographic memory. However, after age 30 it started declining.
Throw in a little oxygen deprevation, and the ole brain just ain’t what it used to be. That old saying about not remembering because you’ve slept since then, has lots of truth.
Well I have to admit, most of them are recycled.
Are you an environmentalist, deep down, or just thrifty?
Yes, once you’ve told them all, there is nothing left to do but start over.
Fortunately there are generations of new people who have not heard them all yet. [smiles]
