My approach would be "Show me where it says I can't do it".

^ seems like 'Old Tom' was a bit of a rascal and a traitor to Cetaceans

Very interesting.

Orcas will eat whales. He probably pulled the boats out so they'd kill a whale and he could catch a meal while they were chopping up the carcass.

Hope that the dog survived and found a pack of coyotes to take up residence with.

The coyotes probably invited the dog over for lunch.

Does anyone still mail checks? :-? :-?? I did last week. Some dog events are still lacking alternative payment methods. Sometimes there's a "convenience fee" for paying on-line, which often encourages me to pay by check because I bet it costs them way more to have to handle a physical check, deposi...

Oops... The charity founded by Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan, has been found delinquent in California and cannot raise money because the state has determined Archewell Foundation has not paid its annual registration fees or submitted an annual report. A source close to Archewell told NBC News th...

Hello from California. Nice warm day today, doesn't seem to be as toasty as yesterday. Did some FastCAT with Faraday this weekend, she's slowing down now, so definitely just for fun rather thank rankings now. However, two of her puppies are currently the fastest Leonbergers in the country this year.

I've seen pictures of the aurora visible in Ireland, too,so it's coming quite far south.

Looks like a G4 geomagnetic storm this weekend. Aurora watch for those further from the equator.

One for Woody... Erik ten Hag walks into a bank to cash a cheque. As he approaches the cashier he says, "Good morning, Ms could you please cash this cheque for me?" Cashier:"It would be my pleasure. Could you please show me your ID?" Ten Hag:"Truthfully, I did not bring my ID with me as I didn't thi...

My classic was having the Weapons (including nuclear) Employment Course, NBC Instructor, and a Physics degree, and I'd done some work at Harwell, but still having to do the one day school radiation source supervisor course. Utter waste of everyone's time. But that's box-ticking (or not) for you! My...

I remember reading about someone who had a maths A-level but for some reason didn't have an O-level in the subject and was turned down for a job.

A Boeing 737-300 aircraft has skidded off a runway in Senegal, injuring at least 10 people, four of them seriously. The incident occurred as Air Senegal flight HC 301 was taking off for the Malian capital Bamako in the early hours of Thursday, Dakar's Blaise Diagne airport said in a statement. The ...

The gnomes should have more faith. I think it's St Michaels Mount, too.

Good morning all, grey day with a bit of rain this morning. Currently 12C, forecast max 18C. I may have mentioned this before but I'm sure when I was at school it was "rooves" :-\ but that seems out of favour these days. Indeed, rooves is the plural of roof, staves the plural of staff (as in survey...

Must be using Benedictine monks driving an electric van.

Contracted to the same people Zanussi used to use for their washing machine delivery.

The playback was useful for training new sim instructors, because it enabled the instructor trainer to point out the cues that a crew were approaching their capacity limits. This helped the new instructors learn whether more value would be gained by adding further workload or emergencies, or not. D...

I am considering telling Boeing that my ex is a suspected whistle-blower.

FTFY. There's a large amount of evidence, all of which needs further investigation to corroborate, and none of which is being allowed to be investigated further. Same as Bush-Gore 2000. The US election procedures have so many holes in them it's unreal. Essentially, incumbents have no motivation to ...

Even spellcheck rejects tyres.

That's because you've got your spellcheck set up incorrectly. Proper English uses "tyres".
