  1. When I saw the thread title I thought "Dragnet" ;-)))
  2. Languages just said English and Dutch.
  3. Love that you turned the table on these pests!
  4. They do "cornholing" but it doesn't have anything to do with sex. ;-))) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornhole
  5. Sad stories! What punishment would be fitting for people like this that harm children?
  6. https://www.advocate.com/environment/2018/7/19/vegan-group-says-chemical-pollutants-make-people-gay-and-trans These people need to eat meat!
  7. Ask Cleo to do the pearl trick http://www.thehistoryblog.com/archives/6868! https://www.foodandwine.com/blogs/secret-drinking-club-started-cleopatra-yes-cleopatra
  8. There was a ballet dancer in Canada who got fired for doing gay porn. His porn name is Jett Black. He is a Dane and had performed before the Queen of Denmark.
  9. At least you are able to access the best!
  10. I like many thought that Hitler was a vegetarian but to my surprise I discovered that he wasn't https://www.sbs.com.au/food/article/2017/12/13/why-hitler-wasnt-vegetarian-and-aryan-vegan-diet-isnt-what-it-seems
  11. What age would you like Henry to be or married to which wife?
  12. Thank-you! One dinner game to avoid is "How would you like to die?". It didn't fare too well for Caesar last time. ;-))) The menu would be difficult because of Maimonides. Probably vegetarian. Maybe he would need to bring the wine. Maybe a Sunday brunch?
  13. Right! But as I said before other than "The Persian Boy" I just could not get into her other works. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Renault
  14. "Jesus, probably choose a fish place" ;-))) Don't have to worry about the wine! ;-))) Mary Renault - I greatly enjoyed "The Persian Boy". Malcolm X - only after he made the Hajj.
  15. I was unfamiliar with Oda Nobunaga https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oda_Nobunaga I was somewhat familiar with Sejong. He created the Korean alphabet. It's been said that it is the best in the world for a language. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sejong_the_Great
  16. Thanks! I wonder if the two birds could have been lovers?
  17. https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2018/07/crow-necrophilia/565442/ What especially caught my attention was these: Swift, who studies bird behavior at the University of Washington, had previously shown that crows conduct “funerals” by gathering around the corpses of their peers. Now a film crew had come to capture this behavior. =================== Sex aside, there are also many documented cases of animals grieving, which the anthropologist Barbara King defines as “some visible response to death that goes beyond curiosity or exploration, to include altered daily routines plus signs of emotional distress.” Elephants, dolphins, and chimpanzees have been noted standing watch over or carrying the bodies of dead babies and companions.
  18. The PBS show I mentioned in my response was this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meeting_of_Minds
  19. It was Kurt Wild https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2008/09/07/subway-employee-sacked-over-gay-porn-career/
  20. When I saw "Subway" I thought of the sandwich shop. I remember reading about a gay for pay porn model that worked at a Subway. When people found out they complained and he was fired.
  21. That is an excellent topic for discussion! I seem to remember a PBS show many years that brought famous historical people together. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I've chosen my three: Caesar. Without him the world would be very different today. Rambam (Moses Maimonides) https://www.quora.com/Why-was-it-said-of-Moses-Maimonides-From-Moses-to-Moses-there-were-none-like-Moses Dante. His "Divine Comedy" is my favorite poem. A good mix. A statesman, a philosopher and a poet.
  22. Too bad the father can't be charged somehow in connection with the girl's death.
  23. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFhaee9SM7w I know we have people here who have been to Prague.
  24. He's Mediterranean but lists his languages as English and Dutch. BFE is way down on his list. No mention of kissing.
