Hey, do you think they'll join the EU someday? Laughing


I saw an interview with him on CBC. He's supposed to pass it down to his son, but it's also apparently for sale, I think they said something like 8 million on the news piece. He dresses up in robes, and has a crown. It's really funny.

Surf,

Can you take this pic off? Or reduce the size of it please. The whole screen is twisted now. How can the canadians read my snide remarks now???


In Canada, we have arrows on our keyboards. We use them to move the screen left or right. Someday you'll have arrows too. Laughing

The bartender was washing his glasses, and an elderly Irishman came in and, with great difficulty, hoisted his bad leg over the barstool, pulled himself up painfully, and asked for a sip of Irish whiskey.

The Irishman looked down the bar and said, "Is that Jesus down there?" The bartender nodded, and the Irishman told him to give Jesus an Irish whiskey also.

The next patron was an ailing Italian with a hunched back and slowness of movement. He shuffled up to the barstool and asked for a glass of Chianti. He also looked down the bar and asked if that was Jesus sitting down there. The bartender nodded, and the Italian said to give Him a glass of Chianti, also.

The third patron, a redneck, swaggered in dragging his knuckles on the floor and hollered, "Barkeep, set me up a cold one. Hey, is that God's Boy down there?" The barkeep nodded, and the redneck told him give Jesus a cold one, too.

As Jesus got up to leave, he walked over to the Irishman and touched him and said, "For your kindness, you are healed!" The Irishman felt the strength come back to his leg, and he got up and danced a jig out the door.

Jesus touched the Italian and said, "For your kindness, you are healed!" The Italian felt his back straighten, and he raised his hands above his head and did a flip out the door.

Jesus walked toward the redneck, and the redneck jumped back and exclaimed, "Don't touch me! I'm drawing disability!"

Yes, he seems a bit eccentric and the nature of Sealand's existence is pretty bizarre as well. I wonder what the future holds for this fine micronation. Maybe it's new leader will 'annex' other platforms in the interest of expansionism. Very Happy

In regards to the Poll question, I also like the three countries listed. So, no vote here. There should be more selections available. For example . . . Sealand. Wink

Actually the place is pretty cool, you can go way down in the supports, and if I remember right they only use the top 8 levels. They have hippy posters and stuff all over. At least the have their own airport, well, only if you have a helicopter.

What's wrong with Wal-Mart? I like Wal-Mart. It's not GUM but what is, except GUM?

Wal Mart is an abomination. I shop there only when I have to. Wal Mart is what's destroying America, it's choking the small businesses. The Wal Mart stores should be prevalent in Canada since the Wal Mart's idea is purely socialist borderlining on communist.

I've only shopped at Wal*Mart a few times...and I am no fan of it...of course I don't really like many big chain corporate stores...much rather support the smaller guy...makes for a better shopping experience. But too I try to distinguish myself from the masses.
