I don't know if you are familiar with the british comedy "Green Wing". In the Xmas special 2 characters were stopped by the police. Whilst one of them was talking with him, the other snuck up and then attacked the policeman with a peanut butter sandwich, smearing it all over his face.

So what follows is an argument between the 2 characters, "Oh I suppose you're trying to induce anaphalactic shock then.... do you know the miniscule chances of that happening?"

Of course the policeman went into shock and thay had to then dispose of the body.

$60?! For a piece of plaster? How big is this piece of the set? I'd hope it's pretty big.

What are you talking about? Doc is going to get some authentic Raiders tunics from Tunisia.

Image

The tunics are about 80 dinars, which is currently 60.9431 USD or 46.8544 EUR.

Yeah, that pic is almost three years old. Haven't eaten any good campfire-grilled sausages lately, last one was a month ago. The latest avatar was taken yesterday.

One with a good meat percentage. Also those with cheese are pretty good, but if have to I'll eat almost anything that says makkara on it. Don't like the fancy stuff with turkey meat or chili flavor though. HK's Kabanossi is a classic, Atria's Wilhelm has lots of meat instead of meat-like substances (like the packaging on cheap sausages says) and Järvi-Suomen Portti's Juusto Ukko-Pekka (with cheese) are some of my favorites. Finns eat a lot of sausages during the summer at their summer cottages all over Finland.

And now, back on topic... 8)

I was in Tunisia in September for three weeks. Absolutely nothing to worry about regarding any 'tensions' between the two countries. Actually I would highly recommend anyone considering it to take the trip. We drove all through the country with very few concerns. If anyone is seriously interested in asking any questions regarding my trip, please feel free to e-mail me.

One note though. English is only spoken at the resort/hotels and sometimes not everyone there even speaks it. Brush up on your French!!! :)

If the offer is still valid, I'm interested in a tunic. I got Agent5's linen wrap, but I have no clue how to use it.
