But on a much grander scale.

Raqqa, Syria
Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant, also known as ISIS, announced today that he would be disbanding all forces and returning all land to Syria and Iraq. The move was prompted by the ongoing Climate Conference in Paris.
"This is one thing we could not have anticipated," Mr. al-Baghdadi said in prepared remarks. "When we see the world coming together like this on such a dangerous subject as Global Climate Change, we realize that our Caliphate will never survive. It's only a matter of time before Climate Change is no more and the world's attention turns to us. At that point, we will have no chance. For the sake of the men, women, and children who have supported us, I can not continue a doomed campaign."
An emotional al-Baghdadi did not take any questions.
Sources close to al-Baghdadi who spoke on the condition of anonymity told us that it was becoming more and more difficult to recruit new fighters. "Even our existing people are extremely demoralized," one said. "The words of Donald Trump himself can not overcome our dispair."
According to their press release, surrender is total and immediate. Fighters are being paid and sent home by division. Any remaining money will be put into a fund to resettle Christians and Yazidis who have been displaced by the war.
"We thought the world was fragmented," one strategist was overheard saying to himself. "Who knew it could come together like this? This is a stinging rebuke."
So far there has been no comment from Damascus, Baghdad, Moscow, or Washington. One source inside the Kremlin said, "We are waiting to see if there will be any follow-up action. We want to make sure this is real before we decide on our next steps."
At least so says that repository of the sum of all the knowledge in the universe Wikipedia..
Book of Esther..
Oh. My. That will require a second reading, as it was far more complex than I expected. Thanks!
Not like that here. The city had the water to the park turned off for the winter so the pipes wouldn’t freeze.
I think there is no park in the valley that has the water shut off in the “winter.”
The homeless try to “live” in the parks and there is such an outcry by the citizenry that the city has to expand the facilities that cater to the homeless. At any given time, the homeless population in the valley is 15,000, +/- 200.
The doors were locked, too. We were irritated when we found out about it, but it saved the city a good amount of money, not having to heat the bathrooms.
“would be rather noisy...”
Not for long.
If your birth certificate is missing it clears up any arguments there may be..
I did it suggest this for Barry some years ago, on a sensible thread, there where no replies. :)
Just to clarify :
By Sensible thread, I mean a thread where more than 50% of the comments are relevant to the original posting.
If they tried to take a core sample of Barry all they would find is a vacuous vacantness of vast volume..
When did that ever apply to FR?
But on a much grander scale.
Granted, on-street parking in that area is at a premium but this place has a garage and a gated drive. I'm not sure but I think it is a two car garage. Since she and her entourage have at least three black SUV behemoths, only one fits in the garage.
It is really quite nice inside, especially if you favor a lot of black paint which she seems to surround herself with - possibly to match an internal blackness of soul..
If you read the article about the "Manor" carefully you will note one word that explains why I know about the parking, the garage, the SUV's and the black interior..
But they don’t land in Central Park anymore. Warren Wilhelm Jr. has given them a secure landing zone at Gracie Mansion..
“has given them a secure landing zone at Gracie Mansion..”
Really?
Well then, i’ll not waste anymore of my time hanging around here waiting for one to arrive then.
:D
I see that it's a crime that's on the radar there now.. ;-)
The bed is calling for me to slither into and warm up, so I’m going to obey the call of the wild.
I’ll play solitaire and read until my eyelids slam shut, so I guess I’ll see all y’all tomorrow day!
Night Face. :)
Yes, my husband is excited to be close to Vegas. We will have to finally meet!
I didn’t know Libre ou mort was out this way... I guess I’ve been out of touch.,
And if you keep driving on that particular route and continue past about 34th street you will be driving on top of some WW2 British history, or the ruble thereof. ;-)
At least till you get to around 23rd street..
Good night, all. I hope you’re not buried in snow or something.
