Fantastic set of pictures.. There are lots of veterans associations who might be able to cast light on the origin of the places they were taken.

Time to catch up.

1)  The Leaning Tower of Pisa was designed to be a bell tower.
2)  Fredric Baur designed the Pringles can, and his ashes were stored in one.
3)  A 2008 study by the University of Illinois found that CPR works best when you do it to the beat of Staying Alive.

Nellie the elephant is also recommended over here.

Does anyone know the source of this quote?  I've done some searching, and can't find anything.

I believe it was in one of the many TV interviews when they were making it big after Hamburg. I've no idea when, or who asked the question.

According to an ex girlfriend, my autonomic  functions such as, breathing and heart function are annoying.

It's a congenital chromosome that all women possess. It usually flourishes at least once, almost always to the prelude of a break up and then forever directed at the object of their displeasure.

That kind of thinking is absurd. So no books from the past have any relevance or meaning in modern times? I guess we should just rely on YouTube or MTV for our teaching of history, science, philosophy, or mathematics? Because "old books" have no relevance.  And you lot think those fundamentalist Christian types like to burn books!? But you say no books have relevance.

The bible has been re-written several times; it was first written at least 40-50 years after Jesus died. It's just a collection of stories. It's just taken as the definitive article because of indoctrination, not because it's a definitive reference.

It was a coin toss between him and May.

I was at school with May, gifted pianist. Friend of mine grew up in same village as Clarkson and knew him well.

So, how do YOU torment others? It can be things you do for amusement, or stuff that people find annoying about you.

I'll start.

My girlfriend really hates when I quote the Butters Tinkle Song.

Having Jeremy Clarkson as your avatar isn't upsetting enough then?

I haven't seen the photos, so I really can't comment. But surely some digital collage of family photos posted on a website is not proof of anything. The only photos I've seen were the ones posted, cropped, and arranged on the web. But I'm fairly certain that the children exist and aren't automatons or actresses.

Has anyone asked to see the family photos of all past Presidents? Did anyone question if Barbara Bush really did go down on bush? Or that Reagan hung out in certain saunas? Dubya? C'mon, some tried to tell us he really was a clever guy! He couldn't string a sentence together without someone whispering it in his ear.

This anti Obama family shit is just that. Shit. It's to make his enemies feel all clever and know all as they snigger like 11 year old boys after finding their parent's stash of porn under the bed.

Quote from: albrecht on July 06, 2014, 10:53:38 AM
Even those photos looked cropped, manipulated, or maybe even faked etc. Is there anything about this character Obama that is normal or real? I have tons of old photos and you'll see, depending on the processing, margins  on the photos, defects, etc. Why no slides, they were popular at the time? Where are the negatives? Instead of processed, cropped, digital photos? I'm sure these are real (no one ever said that babies can't be adopted) and even a homosexual can have a child (naturally or otherwise) but it is odd that the Obama adherents present these obviously manipulated photos as "proof". Even his illegal alien "dreamers" currently walking across our open border have better documentation (not that we check it.)

Having said all that I'm pretty sure Michael/Michelle didn't play middle linebacker on scholarship at Oregon State. However, it would not surprise me if the cross-dressing nanny raised Barry is at least bi or outright homosexual considering all the rumors and his bizarre upbringing.

Because it's far too easy to believe that they're a man and woman, had sex, married, had more sex, and had kids...Jesus.

As for slides...not many people used slide film (My father was a very keen photographer as am I) for family snaps. It's expensive, and can't be easily printed from like a neg. And why no negs? Because if they're like 90% of other family snappers, the negs are seen as nothing important...right up until they want copies and discover they dumped the negs.

Obviously manipulated? Go on...show me.

Very interesting Stuart; What is the latest on the 'ethics' re: Facebook? Has there been a backlash among the scientific community?

Ahhh!! Yes, I remember now. The names escaped me that's all.

My next question, what was the sentiment to the links posted above? That it wasn't that straightforward?

This thread is missing something.



There it is. Carry on.

Did you remote view that all the way from Oz? Now I am impressed.

Can someone please explain briefly what this is about?

Thanks in advance.

you need years of therapy

Do you think it worth the expertise of a psychiatrist to waste it on Rutger?

Is MV sort of nuts to Black Sabbath tours. via turkey basters, penis size (or not) and facial cancer.... I'm impressed! 

Quote from: missing transmission on July 05, 2014, 03:36:41 PM
Hmm when you say sci-fi could you elaborate? It looks like they did a few made for TV soundtracks as well. IN other cases existing albums of theirs were chopped up by directors wanting a certain synth flavour. (eg. Vampires in Venice, which uses portions of Logos)

Also I'm a huge TD fan and Michael Manns "The Keep" is one of my faves as well... though according to cult director Richard Stanley it was really about the Cathar/Templar Castle of Montsegur....

From what I can remember it was a space adventure..This is what is frustrating, because I didn't take much notice of the film but the soundtrack and incidental TG tunes was why I watched/listened to it...no I wasn't smoking stuff! Look I've Hijacked this unintentionally, no doubt one day it will be re-broadcast and I'll shout 'YES'.

The longest shot I ever made from a cold barrel was 725-yards on a Coyote, with witnesses (a 300 Winchester magnum I had built in 1997). I ranged the coyote with a laser range finder, looked up the dope on my chart, clicked the scope for the drop, made a guess for the wind, took the shot and rolled the Coyote. It was still growling at us when we walked up to it, but it wasn't going anywhere. I was stunned how tough the fricken thing was that it was still living after a 200g Sierra SBT ripped through it but it was a gut shot so it lived until we got to it, albeit with a rather large portion of its guts hanging out...

Did your dick grow a quarter inch because it wasn't a clean shot? Why do you need to say you had witnesses, think anyone will check?  You just had to try and prove how rough and tough you are with a weapon eh? 700 yards needed because you wanted enough distance between you and the coyote because you wouldn't outrun it?

If nothing else, it proves how utterly sackless you patriot types are. You've got all the guns you could need.

You're just too cowardly to do anything with them.

Hey!!! QK advertised the American Spring demo on here; that's patriotic enough by any standards. Okay, he didn't go and later turned Judas and said it was a liberal plot to undermine the bla blah blah....But nevertheless he nearly went.

Ruteger is a MENTAL DISORDER.

Ruteger Needs Human Friends.  Won't you please help?

I hereby pledge my friendship to Ruteger.  He can call me a commie tree-hugger tranny all day but from here forward, we are buddies.

A little bit of love will go a long way.

You know that will hurt you in the long run don't you?  :

Firestarter?  More horror than Sci Fi, but that might be the one you are thinking of. Vangelis' soundtrack for Blade Runner is also very Tangerine Dream like.

No not Firestarter..and I distinctly remember the credits saying 'All music by Tangerine Dream'..I've since seen Wavelength and listened to the track, but it definitely wasn't that. I wish it was, then I'd have known.

Quote from: Quick Karl on July 05, 2014, 01:28:22 PM
"Hitting" a human silhouette target at 100-yards, and shooting a sub-1/4" group out of a semi-automatic rifle, at 100-yards, are two, entirely, different animals.

An Enfield doesn't have the potential to shoot such a group, in anyone's wildest imaginations.

And, you would have to know what hand-loading match-quality ammunition was all about, before you could even begin to start practicing the breathing and trigger techniques required to shoot sub-quarter-inch groups.

The trigger alone on that rifle cost $300.00.

$300? Woopeedoo... Took position behind the mat with the targets in front 100 yards distant. On the mat was a rifle with an open breach and magazine. Took position, loaded, confirmed we were ready, safety off...Instructor said 'five rounds grouping to the target in front of you, in your own time carry on'. So we did. After five shots we emptied the last case, safety on and put the rifle down.

We did the breathing, we were taught by RAF instructors. I didn't say they were sub quarter inch shots..I said about two and half inches. In a situation if I was to take someone down, that's close enough...six would be enough if the centre was in the main body mass. I've seen what a round does to the body, one placed well is enough.

Maybe you can help me out then: A Si Fi film mid-late 80's. Soundtrack throughout by Tangerine Dream.. but it isn't 'Wavelength'...I've been trying to track it down for years without success.. Trawled the discography and nothing shouts out as being the one.

Well boyos...you need to re-evaluate things...

I flew over Dover to help stop the advance of the NAZIS.  I shot down 9 enemy planes in 1943 in the course of time that year.  My final encounter was with FW-190's, The FW-190 I was after turned and headed high speed back to Germany straight as an arrow.  Upon which lead me into a trap with 4 other FW-190's.  Two of them headed at me directly from angles approximately within my altitude 1 FW-190 at 45° and the other at 85°.  I was immediately put on the defensive and dealing with some of the fastest most heavily armored planes of the War.  When I saw the others I turned left to evade and thus lost altitude in the process.  However I did not see the other 2 FW-190's diving down on top of me when I started to try and gain altitude on the way back to Dover.  Basically it was over for me as I approached 1800 feet above my original alt when climbing into the trap.  I died instantly in my Spitfire 9.  One of the FW-190's shot my head off with their cannons. End of it   I Tried Great Britain!

I could get upset that you besmirch the memories of those who you're not fit to tie the boot laces of and lick shit off the soles. I could, but I won't you deluded shit. Just get help with a benevolent medical practitioner who isn't tempted to just smother the life out of your worthless body.

I know, right?  All black people are supposed to look the same, so how do you explain the Obamas?  Maybe they are actually white people in black face.

Unless you can come up with some other reasonable explanation, instead of some commie crap about genetics, chromosomes and stuff? Aren't all people white?
