Good.  I hope that dead end of a gene pool gets bathed in volcanic fire.  Blondes are combustible.

I really, really hope so.  I despise Iceland.
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

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

A paranoid thought based hereupon...
What if this eruption continues for ages?
The UK is screwed...Cut off from air travel the economy would tank.
And I won't be able to get home in June. Which is bad.

Frankfurt is locked down since this morning. Austrian airports will follow this afternoon.

Our company had a major regional management meeting in town this week (well, actually at the airport hotel). They'll surely looove this. :lol:

Spiegel says that 60% of all flights in Europe have been cancelled - that's about 17,000.

My aunts facebook page. But I've seen it in the papers now.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I suggest that Europe relents a bit in it's demands for money. There is much more *ash where that came from. We don't actually have the letter "c" in our language.

NB Thats not quite true, we have letter "c" in the alphabet and one word has the letter "c" in it. No, not that one, it's a different one.

Driven to desperation by their gigantic debt, the Icelanders forged in secret a master ring...
