 In the bread aisle, an unassuming pastry called "Uzumaki Pizza", apparently covered in pepperoni and  cheese. Japanese pizza leans toward the thin and insubstantial italian style more so than the amerifat luxury I am accustomed to, so I was happy to pick up cheap pizza-style bread.

The joke was on me though; There was no cheese. All the cheese on top of the so-called Pizza was mayonnaise.

When it's time to retake the Falklands, I'm sure Virgin offers enough charters to Buenos Aires.

Better than being nagged over a coupon.

Oh, I'd have left her ass, too. It's the not supporting his kids thing that bothers me, not his having left Kate.
Isn't Kate still famewhoring?  Does she need his money?

Isn't it unlawful to fly foreign colors on your warplanes (warships, armies, etc.)?

General paint schemes are not foreign colors.  The article is talking about not repainting the entire aircraft, so it will look like a USAF aircraft with RAF colors and thus not match any of the RAF's other aircraft.

You're positively reinforcing my desire not to actually read articles posted here.

Samantha Geimer was the chick Roman Polanski bung holed at age 13.  She has written an autobiography.

Her thought on meeting Polanski: "Ew, there's this guy who's like my size and sort of looks like a ferret."
