I used a foot operated press for too long.

Now I have missile toe.

Kiss me...

Yes. They would feed her cabbage and such as between meals snacks, something for her to browse on, and of course they collectively called it browse.

Koko started mysteriously signing by rubbing the upper edge of her hand back and forth right above her eyes.

It took the humans weeks to figure out that she was using her Ameslan sign for (eye) brows to ask for browse.

She invented homonyms as well!

Investigators are searching for a man from Manchester in connection with the seizure. They have also sought overseas assistance in the probe.

“We are at the moment searching for an individual named O’Neil Schrouder who we think can assist the police with their investigation. We will also be seeking the assistance of our overseas partners to help us with the investigation,” said DSP Brown.

I’m been sitting here scratching my head all morning, after reading that poor writing, twice. Most “journalism” these days, is just pitiful and confusing.

I passed your message along to Mags; haven’t heard back from her.

From what they are saying the “machine to make ammo” is a progressive reloading press since they say gun ranges have tried to get the machine before but weren’t allowed.

Having had the dubious honor of visiting Jamaica once [1972], it was then and remains one of the most dysfunctional islands in the Caribbean. Jamaican criminal gangs called “posses” have the cops outgunned at every turn and anything to do with firearms is forbidden. These draconian laws apply to all, but the posse members violate the laws without much problem from law enforcement. Reason: Jamaican posses are extremely VIOLENT and will kill anyone that they think is a threat to them.

“A machine that makes missiles and bullets. Gotta’ get me one of them... “

Yeah, I wonder if Dillion makes an auto-indexed version for a reasonable price?

The photo shows 9mm FMJ bullets, as in projectiles. Also about 12 pounds of lead ingots. Where did you find a photo?

The photo, from 2010, has a caption that indicates “warhead” is used in ‘Jamaican English’ as a synonym for bullet. Don’t know if Brit English also uses “warhead” this way.

No one has been arrested.

A little island is too afraid to arrest obama?
