And while you are pondering that, here's a disaster video taken by one of the lucky guys at Mount Everest Base camp. He got covered with just a dusting of snow from the avalanche. Warning: Contains appropriate interjections.

Things aren't that different on this side of the Atlantic.
Churchill: Bulldog or Former British Prime Minister? Quote:
Admittedly, this survey dates from 2005 but if it was repeated today I wouldn't expect the results to be any different. BBC Press Office A more recent article here: He's Not A TV Dog! Call For Churchill Legacy Questions from Dwellars asking for clarification as to which picture represents the former Prime Minister, will be filed. ![]() |

Oh gosh, the Texas campus questions - "Who is the vice-president? Is that like a trick question?"
Hahahahahahaha. Gotta love students, man.

I knew it was wrong when I was doing it, but, I laughed just a little when the guy started in with those "Fuck!! Fuck!!!"s.
I almost posted the same vid under "Most Appropriate (and Most) Use(s) of 'Fuck'".

"aged between 8 and 11" I don't find it remotely worrying that 17 % of that age group think Churchill is the dog in a long running and somewhat omnipresent insurance advert. It doesn't give the age break down, but I would imagine it's skewed towards the younger end. At 8-11 years old, just how much of the nation's history do we expect a child to have absorbed? Frankly, I'm pretty impressed that 52% of children that young do know who Churchill was.

Here's a movie from 1916, well a movie short at 26 minutes, called The Mystery of the Leaping Fish.
