Oh, he also told me that the most fun thing to do in a Transylvanian winter is drive into icy parking lots on summer tires and do three sixtys. :lol:

They have a rich and vibrant culture and heritage. That's why I see fucking Romanians all over Stockholm, begging while on their cellphones.
When I was in London a Romanian dude came up to me and started begging for money. :)

Track tonight's incoming North Carolina primaries results here: http://www.politico.com/2014-election/results/north-carolina/

The key number is whether establishment candidate Thom Tillis meets the 40% threshold to avoid a runoff in the Republican primary for U.S. Senate. If Tillis succeeds, then he will face vulnerable incumbent Democratic Senator Kay Hagan in November.

and Clay Aiken.

I took him out to lunch (Mexican, not a blood bank), and check this out:  I didn't bring up Dracula... he did :lol:

My grandfather grew up on Detroit's west side in the 1920s and 1930s.  At that time people had come from all over the world to work in the automotive plants and he grew up in a multi-ethnic neighborhood.  When he was 12 when the movie "Dracula" came out.  All the Hungarian immigrants would swell with pride and say "He's from Hungary, you know" whenever Bela Lugosi was mentioned; everyone loves their vampires.   :)

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

To be honest, that does sound like a lot of fun.  :blush:

It's all legal, guys.  I just tell my wife what boxes to fill in.

This, guys, is why single women vote so differently than married ones.

This one example of a wife letting her husband decide how she votes holds true universally?
We don't even know if she actually does vote his way or just tells him that to placate him.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

For Balkan chase movies, Getaway is set in, and was filmed in, Sofia, Bulgaria.  It's terrible though.  90 minute film; 7000 cuts. :bleeding:

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

The Se og Hør scandal gets even bigger, not only did they pay for credit card information, but also passenger lists and they even had a guy supply them with scanning appointsment, which led the tabloid to congratulate on the front page a famous couple with their new child. The child was dead, as confirmed in the scanning.
