re: Snapple Fact of the Day

FW, you remind me of this guy who slipped me his number and then pestered me repeatedly because I didn't/wouldn't call back. :)

So, any more facts? Here's one:

If Coca-Cola didn't have any dyes or colourings in it, it would be green. Yum.
The rain we knew is a thing of the past -
deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.

Oh, there's a question for you STageManager, do they use American or UK English in Canada and Australia? I presume Canada uses American, but Australia?

Canadians write "colour," "neighbourhood," "favour," etc.

ETA: FW, did it just get up and walk away?

re: Snapple Fact of the Day

FW, what are you talking about? I was referring to the letter "u", not you, in response to your previous post.

re: Snapple Fact of the Day

Really? Canadians have the u? But do they write 'gray' or 'grey', and do they say New-cleer or Newkuler? (Nuclear)?

Yes, they write "grey."

BTW: I don't say "newkuler"!

re: Snapple Fact of the Day

Thank God someone doesn't. Haha! I'm just listening to the radio, and it says that a 70-something year old has been murdered, but he was a bit of a psycho, it says he followed a family living near him to their holidays in the West, called the mother obscene names, put excrement through their letter box and annoyed the father so much that he took his own life! Sheesh, 72 year old yob...

Edit: Just found out he was 83...

re: Snapple Fact of the Day

What?!? The father killed himself because this man was annoying him? Why didn't he just shoot the man? Not that I advocate violence, but it just makes more sense.

No, apparently the father was sick of it because this random man (they didn't even know him) was following them around everywhere, shouting at them, accusing the father of being a drug dealer and/or a police informant, accusing the wife of being a whore and that she was having three affairs and all that, and he intimidated the children (and he did the excrement thing). This morning they found him, throat cut.

Big Idea? Is that a TV show? I doubt a murder in Dublin's inner city would grab that much attention...
