So, opinions? Or more broadly your opinion on highly caffeinated alcoholic drinks? Public danger or is it just yobs who can't hold their liquor?

An Irish coffee in the morning helps start the day. But giving drunk people too much energy is usualy bad.

Have any CFCers tried Buckfast?

Won a bottle off Tommy Tiernan once. Tried it - didn't like it - gave the rest to a wino.

A former manager of mine who didn't drink was recommend it as a tonic for a cold - she didn't realise that tonic wine had alcohol in it drank a whole bottle and couldn't figure out what was wrong with her later.

Well I'm sure everyone in Galway will get an education on Buckfast fueled idiots what with RAG week coming up this month.

Isn't that drink just asking for a heart attack?

Where can I find a large world map showing current (as in 2007 and later) land use for agriculture?

I also need a large world map showing major roadways and/or major(?) rail lines.

Does anybody know what this is (and the purpose)?

Is it considered stalking if ... Suppose you put somebody's name and state into ZabaSearch[url] and found them. So then you copy and paste the address into Google Maps and the Street View is available so you look and see their house.

Just wondering.

No.

But you sure as hell are creepy.

Do you guys think aimee is serious or is this just a big joke?

What would be the present day population of the United Kingdom if the 400 years of emigration did not occur?

I'm thinking 100 MILLION.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

No.

But you sure as hell are creepy.

Why? Maybe I was referring to somebody I know who did do that. She didn't do it to me, though.

EDIT: 5K posts!

Why is aimee spending so much time on google street view?

My town was just added to it.

After a President serves his two terms, he generally retires from political life, but if he wanted to he could continue his political career and run for Senate or the House or governorship again if he wanted to couldn't he?

Also why has my economy imploded?

Yes he can. President Johnson I believe(the civil war one) served in the senate for a while after he left office.
