I have seen things you people wouldn't believe.....
Attac ships on the fire off the shores of the Nonestic Ocean. I watched magic blunderbusses flash and glitter in the dark near Glinda's palace. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain

The cockroach, probably one o fthe most - hated insects on the planet, can harbor more than 40 pathogens that are a danger to humans. They include delightful things like typhoid, pneumonia, and hepatitis. Now there’s a bug that even most entomologists should stay clear of!

The mid-day meal on Sunday and the festival meals on Christmas, and Easter, are still often eaten at the old hours, usually either at noon or between two and four in the afternoon, and called dinner.

There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty.

The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: ‘What’s up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don’t think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass! And at the other end of the bar the world is full of the other type of person, who has a broken glass, or a glass that has been carefully knocked over (usually by one of the people calling for a larger glass), or who had no glass at all, because they were at the back of the crowd and had failed to catch the barman’s eye.

And there are those who opine that the glass is always full

You can trust a Labrador with your Wife, your Children, and your bank a count details. They will defend these things unto death.

However, you can not trust them with sausages.
What would it do with your bank details?
The rest it can eat.
