Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedevs 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 Eisenhowers alleged meeting with extraterrestrials, where agreements were reached with some of the visitors giving them permission to take some of the Earths resources in exchange for advanced technology...

Technically, I think it’d be mead, not beer.
Hopefully, they’ll have a selection. Keep up with the times kind of thing...
I do that with P.J. O'Rourke all the time!
Sure, all this new artisanal brew might be just the thing in Odin’s hall ... not to mention giving the boyos something else to fight about.
Side note: Trying to figure out the special characters for certain old Scandinavian names on a Mac isn’t as easy as it should be.
“Where’s Þórr?”
“Have you checked at Bilskirnir, Þrúðheimr, or Þrúðvangr?”
“Yeah... I got Megingjörð dry cleaned for him and wanted to get it back to him...”
Hey, I think that’s brilliant. I can’t ever remember how to do tildes and accents when I type something in Spanish. If computers are so smart, why can’t the just figure out I’m writing Spanish and fix it for me, huh?
Had a bunch more typed out, but I think I'm just going to let this end here.
I'd much rather talk about beer, fluffy pillows, and dust bunnies here in the UT...
Actually, all I did was google search the phonetic forms and copy it directly from whatever page has the correct spelling/fonts.
Cheap and cheesey hacking...
I get random characters when I do that.

Maybe being on a Mac isn't such a bad thing. Looks like it translates the &# characters directly into FR's text box.
As does the god of the atheist and the agnostic.

Fair enough.
“Actually, the Gods of most religions claim all other Gods are lesser.”
Stepping back a pace or two, would it be godlike to assert anything else? I mean, just how would a tribe of folks take revelatory information like this:
“Yea, I am Glurg the Lugubrious! Bow, for I am your God, and yea though I am more wimpy than the Gods of the Greeks and the Romans, yet I — wholly unlike them — am a bringer of chocolate, and handcrafted beer!”
Humans tend to like putting things in categories and boxes. Whether they fit or not.
Starting to have one of those days when you type faster than your keyboard can keep up with.
Eitehr that, or Darks is lurking agin and the typsos are going to start croping up...
Until the God of Israel, the gods of the nations tended to have decidedly human characteristics. One of those was erratic behavior. I don't think humility was ever included in the list.
The God of Israel declared Himself to be consistent and proved it over time.
At some point this translated into the worldview of the scientists. They decided that if God was orderly, He might well have created an orderly universe. They started looking for, and found, laws that could be used to understand and predict how objects would behave. This was a crucial step in the development of science and technology as we know them today.
...and Dr. Seuss.
Does VOOM work on chrome wheels?
The EPA has condemned the Vatican for it's unnecessarily use of smoke to signal the results of the vote for Pope. This contributes to GLOBAL WARMING (sic) and is not a good example to set for society. We must work together to battle GLOBAL WARMING (sic). They when on to suggest that the Pope give up is pope mobile ans continue to use public transit. It was first suggested that he use a donkey but after further thought it was discovered that donkeys produce methane gas which causes GLOBAL WARMING(sic)
That is my stop-work signal.
“That is my stop-work signal.”
Ouch!
I prefer something less painful, so I — Oh, look! A squirrel!
Thank you for first lol of the day (and I needed it)!
Speaking of pigs, has anyone heard about the substitution of pig anus for calamari? Apparently, even the “experts” are fooled.
Voom?
It does, i think.
It will remove that crust.
It will remove bugs, tar,and dust.
And wash them down the sink...
