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...

Flu Outbreak Reaches Epidemic Level
January 15, 2013
Fifty percent of the US is seeing extremely high reports of influenza.
Dosen't really have the charm of snow.
I've seen the picture on u-tube of the ice pellet storms 'you' get there. Wow.
(these pellets.... .22 or .177 ?)
7.62 .22
Stay safe there,Joe.
Time to stock up on meds.

“Braces”, what many of us here call suspenders.
Some may be wondering how attachments to straighten and align your teeth could get caught by a passing mirror.
Teeth caught by a passing mirror.....[snigger]
AHHHH!!!! launching salt grenades at previous post.....
Good morning. No snow here - that was a gesture at people experiencing winter. It is presently 50F and foggy here, might be 60 later and will probably rain. I like snow, too.
I hadn’t translated the joke from English, and was half-heartedly puzzling about the handlebars/teeth issue.
One can understand the attraction.
" launching salt grenades at previous post....."
We have a poster who handles those for us, but he's in an inconvenient time zone for this one.
I'm in an inconvenient time zone also. The work-day commenceth.
My grandfather called them galluses. That's the term I use simply to be annoying.
And the mystery of my neighbors' Giant Pile o' Rocks is solved. Workers arrived last Friday (and Saturday) and built a fairy tale stone wishing well, with a protruding lip and a shingled roof. It's right next to the diorama of Papa Smurf shooting craps with Daisy Duke at Casino Night in a scale model VFW hall.
P.S. I made up the part about Papa Smurf.
Of course ... it's really Boss Hogg.
Maybe the well will become a pilgrimage site, and you can charge for parking on your lawn and also sell refreshments and tchochkes.

WHOA! Donald Sutherland plays whom? Excellent photo. You Brits have a real knack with authentic costumes, for sure. It doesn’t seems to matter which era, the costumes and sets are spot-on.
I’m not quite half-way through with it, and I like the cleverness of Prior Philip. I can see the outcomes of some situations, but I’m curious as to how they will transpire.

Since I dated a Brit for several months, and love British films, I have an Automatic Word Substitute gear in my vocabulary archive. Or something. Anyway, I’m not usually at a loss for the meaning of some words. I think it’s fun!

Full agreement the Brr be comeithin upon the ground
and from the sky. Gonna get cold out there nationwide.
It does that in winter and we-ins get cold toes, cold toes.
Just waiting on the warm weather from here to come back, for the
warmth is fading fast, in this neck of the woods.
I love global warming even though it doesn't exist except
when it is warm. I love warm.
I think I’d like that better if it were posted in June...
But thanks! I love castles!
