Agreed. Have my additional 2 drachma. </font>[/QUOTE]With currency rate the way they are, I get the feeling that I'm being short-changed here :(

I have some lovely pesos if you'd rather. Ooooh, how about Swiss currency? It's garishly tacky in its overuse of color. You can have that.

Well Johnny, why not ask the people of Enschede whether they will ban fireworks which, every year, are responsible for hundreds of mutilations and deaths in the Netherlands - and the answer will be a resounding NO - despite the fact that these 'dangerous munitions' all but destroyed their town
Hundreds of mutilations and deaths in the Netherlands ? There haven't been any such numbers over the last 25 years, where do come up with this ?

Comparing fireworks with shooting live ammo in the air is like comparing apples with bananas. Those rounds do eventually come down again, and in civilian areas that's not exactly recommendable, wouldn't you say so ?

The attack occured at 3:00 in the morning. Must have been one hell a party.

What's so special about that ? Do parties where you live end before midnight or something ?

ROTFL! That's the worst argument you've used in ages. Do parties always end at kiddie bedtime over at your place? Sheeeesh.

Timber Loftis 05-21-2004 01:59 AM

Be reasonable, Melusine. If the attacks did occur at that hour (a fact still in question according to CNN) then he has a fair point.

You're right about one thing - it *did* turn into one hell of a party. Literally.
