Odd thing. Apparently 3 weeks before my uncle died he gave a sealed letter to his daughter, to be delivered to his wife in case he ever died.
Amongst the expected it mentioned his funeral wishes (in tune with mine actually. Bar the suing people part)

Also a  scary realisation...
My great grandad died in his late 80s.
My grandad died in his late 70s.
My uncle died in his late 60s.

1: my dad is nearly 60
2. I'll die in my 50s?

No. Late forties according to your scheme  :P

Apparently there's a barbershop boom in Barcelona, and trained barbers have become so sought after that we are recruiting them from abroad.  :hmm:

I hear there is a barber in Seville.

No, I guess it's mostly hipster-driven.

They didn't get into any trouble, other than inconvenience (because the declared everything), but it was just strange, because it was clear that they travelled this way all the time.

It can happen. Just not paying attention, talking to each other, take a wrong turn...and why the heck are we in a line!?
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.

Do you often suddenly find yourself with guns all over your car? :unsure:

The odd part is the fact that their car was filled with guns, not that they missed a turn-off and ended up in the line for the border. The latter is, indeed, easy to do.

Two clever quotes I just read in 1843, The Economist's lifestyle magazine:

"Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable we have to alter it every six months."  Oscar Wilde

"In a revolution, as in a novel, the most difficult part to invent is the end."  Alexis de Toqueville

I went to Wally World and due to the fluids around my lungs, I had to use a store scooter.
