  1. Obviously she's using her religion to sway the court's decision to win a settlement. Oh wait, there's no mention of religion in the article. Obviously a closet Halibut.

    That's not the cute puppies stage, is it?

    The EU Referendum Hokey Cokey

    Many years ago I was a big supporter of the EU. My reasons for that (integration, rather than war to solve political problems) are still valid, but what the Union has become has diminished my enthusiasm quite a bit. I think leaving the Union won't solve Britain's ills, nor those of the Union. I also think that leaving the Union won't make much of a difference for the UK and the EU: after all, the UK has for many years been the Special Child in the class. What the Union should do, with or without the UK, is reinvent itself along much more democratic lines and with a strict delineation of what are Union and what are national matters. A European Parliament that has actual power and isn't afraid to use it would also be nice. We should think about how countries become members. A referendum for that would be nice. After all, should the UK defect, we might not want them back in.

    Ironic Deaths

    Ehrm, ironic? For Alanis Morissette values of ironic, then.
  6. From that article: I'm not Nestle, but my comment would be: fuck off.

    Mikhail Gorbachev

    Sweet coincidence. Earlier today I had a conversation about a former world chess champion, whose name, my partner was certain, was Gorbachev.

    Jimmy Savile

    My knowledge of English law is contrary, I mean non-existent, so I'm confused. I presume that, even for sex crimes, criminal proceedings in England need a live accused, so no luck there. Under Dutch law, seeking damages from heirs of a dead defendant is difficult anyway, but after such a period any judge would summarily throw such a case out.

    Jimmy Savile

    And what exaclty does this 48 year old man want to do about it? Sue Inman's corpse estate that will have been passed on to his family? FTFY Cheers. I wish the clod all the best. Surely the time to start tort proceedings has passed.

  14. ^^^ loses some of its effectiveness by not being in Greek...
  15. What a silly thing to do. A script can't help what horrible languages are written with it. I rather like Greek script, say Αλέξανδρος ο Μέγας: strong, youthful and masculine. Much better than that decadent Latin script.

    We can still beat those unscrupulous pickers, we (with the hilariously funny teams) just need to be smarter than them.

    I said at the get go I'd have six hits in six weeks and I remain unanimous in that. Of course you do, you have no choice. That's presuming there are no other voices in your head.

    The Deathlist Howto

    Due to stupidity I can´t exactly reconstruct, I deleted it. I used my Super Admin Powers to resurrect it. It needs deleting. I'm saddened that you flinched on doing Admin work and making an Admin decision. We have Dead Medallists and I've made the comment before why the hell did anyone split off one olympics at all? To which the reply was basically 'well that's what happened and it's the way it's been around here so....' Which is a piss poor reason to continue any venture in life ('cuz we've always done it that way'). It was a sensible deletion due to duplication. If YoungWillz would like to explain why Summer and Winter Olympiabs shouldn't be covered by a thread about Dead Medallists I'm all ears (well---eyes). SirC PS: Whilst I have your attention could you please create a new thread and peel off that horrid banter in the WWII thread? It's a complete distraction and certainly not what that thread's intent is/was. If two people want to dicker over something so it in a new thread or in the Extra Curricular thread designated for that. Otherwise you invite argumentative diatribes about one's acting abilities, e.g., in Hollywood Possibilities that goes on for pages. SC Don't understand why I'm being dragged in to explain. I didn't create any of these threads - there long before I arrived on this forum. That's like saying "If YoungWillz would like to explain why Adolf Hitler was born...". As I recall, DDT rejected your request to merge the Summer and Winter Olympic threads before, on the grounds that they haven't been merged in real life. And you have actually posted Winter Olympic deaths in that thread. Accept mods' previous rulings and be at least consistent please. Love you. YoungWillz means this little exchange. I had a look at the whole topic and it started out as a topic about contenders KIA during the Winter Olympic Games. It morphed in a topic for dead Winter Olympians, which is indeed redundant. I propose the following: I move the dead Winter Olympians to topic Olympic Deaths/Dead Medallists I rename topic Winter Olympic Deaths to something more appropriate and explaining, say Faster, Higher, Dead. Summer Olympic Game fatalities might be included.

    Allow me to explain: I killed it by accident and restored it. I'll have a look at its content later tonight and to your request.

    Terry Wogan

    Now that's a surprise! I'm no particular fan of his, but it's one of those big names on the telly.
  22. Be careful with what some might interpret as an accusation. I take your use of historical revisionism in a neutral way, but in its ordinary use it has a very particular meaning. If you do mean that: there's little of that in Europe. I haven't read what's taught in Dutch schools recently, so I may be out of date. I don't think European historians differ much in opinion with their US colleagues. Of course "our" point of view is different, WWII was foremost the war against the Nazis and their allies, for most Europeans the war in Asia was far away (not for the Dutch, though, nor for the Brits).

    Ooh, a much more modern approach to the Demjanjuk gambit. Dead Well, he did evade trial, so I count it as a success.

    Death Anniversary Thread

    Today in 1951: Austrian automotive engineer Ferdinand Porsche died, aged 75. If it's German, has wheels and moves fast, Porsche designed it, or something in its pedigree.
