Its because when you Yanks are reading this i probably am on the way to the bars and you will be stuck at work :)
3 hours to go :cool:
-
You're at work right now are you not? Over here, most of us are sleeping like babies. So there.
Now quit slackin' off... Get back to work!
:D

What goes around comes around - especially when you live on a spinning globe. :D

No no no, i bet it will be the exact same situation next friday ;)

Europe would be even greater if we couldg et rid of corrupt bastards like Berlusconi.
Him heading the Eu is a farking disgrace. Am an ardent supporter of a unified Europe (so we in the future can say 'I am taking my ball and leaving to the yanks, just as they currently do :)), but that corrupt mofo in official charge of the EU is enough to make me a wee bit sick.
That and the French, German and English.
I say that to be in EU your country should have let go of the past and have realized that NO, it's not a superpower and YES, the US can kick your countrys ass, any day of the week. Get over it. It's how things are and not worth squeaking about mr Chirac.
-
Uh!!! What does this have to do with beer???
:confused:
-
British, I think you mean. ;)
But we are not all equal Santa. Britain is not a developing nation. It's economy is huge and advanced, given its size. To say that we should have the same say as Poland or Latvia is unrealistic. To force it on us will have a completely negative effect and would be disastrous in the long run.
Building the EU will be a slow process.

Another great thing is we can watch 9 o'clock news 6-9 hours earlier than amurricans :)

Hey Maniac,
It is Friday, but guess what, some of us Americans do not have to work today, we instead choose 4 day work weeks!!! So, around noon, when we crack open the first cold one, we'll be thinking of you on your commute home.
:p

Hey I used to drink my head off on a regular basis in Uddevalla back in my merhcant marine days, used to cost about 10 GBP for half a glass of beer. I was impressed by the booze on sale in petrol stations though, very civilised.

Hmm, You cant buy booze in regular stores or petrol stations :( , The goverment has an monopoly on booze here... Maybe it was moonshine for sale? :)
10 Brittish pounds?? WoW thats expensive! an beer at one of finest places in Stockholm costs about 5 Euros (5 dollars if you like)
Sounds like you have paid your friends beer without you knowing it ;)
-
Ah ok, maybe it was Krone? I've mentioned the booze/petrol thing to Swedes before and they've said pretty much what you have. I could have been a bit hammered, maybe it was petrol in a bar?

Does this make up for yr 2 weeks of vacation a year?

LOL!
10 kronor is about half an glass of beer at some places, sounds more right!
Maybe you drank FPO, Flack Panzer Oil, but thats mainly an Finnish invention! :)
They do sell beer at petrol stations etc, but that beer aint that strong, you still can get hammered on em if you drink about 10 in 1 - 2 hours :)
-
Heh, the more I think about it the more I wonder what the hell I was doing in a petrol station in the first place. Anyway, have a good time dont drink too much ;) I'll raise a glass to you over here.
-
Ok this is it... I´m outta here! nice weekend all!
have a good time dont drink too much I'll raise a glass to you over here.
Ill raise one for you too mate!

Never said Berlusconi was stupid. Just said that he is a corrupt swine who just got immunity a few days prior to being brought up on corruption charges - yet again. Then he does the nice 'nazi' speak to gain some extra votes.
Dowding, Denmark isn't a developing country either. The EU is supposedly a cooperation between states. STATES. Realtive importance and might must be taken into account (as many other things) but imagine having Chirac or Berlusconi deciding what's good for *your* country.
The French have already made the EU impotent through their stupid insistence on farm subsidies, resulting in farmers growing crops they know they cannot sell but crops that'll earn 'em more in subsidies than would the sale of 'sellable' crops.
In NZ they removed subsidies. Contrary to breaking the farming there, it strengthened it.
The Eu spends almost half of its total budget on farm subsidies. Another 15% is eaten up by administration and posh locations/offices/salaries to EU dignitaries. This might sit well in southern European cultures but the Scandinavian one is not one where politicians are supposed to get rich off 'public service'.
Plus, Danish beer is cheap and good. I bet Berlusconi would try to make us all drink 'Roman wine' instead, the bugger.
The EU is farked up, wasting resources left and right. Its politicians are as detached from the European population as are the American administrations from the American people. This coming from an EU supporter. Just don't like where we're headed (for example, not sure enlargement at the present scale is a good idea for Denmark)

... and America moves yet closer to the next 911... :(

beet1e, if your assertion or opinion is true, it still doesn't have anything to do with the fact that individual European countries have nothing on the US military wise. At least in quantity.
We have some great weapons systems - some of which are superiour to what the US has, but our % of GNP spent on the military is ridiculously low compared to the US. Which is the biggest market in the world.
We have our nukes, but that's about it.
-
You see... Same thing this friday, We in Europe get to drink beer way earlier then you over there :D
About 4 hours left untill beer time hehe!
-
....Beet1e... what do his comments have to do w/ us moving closer to 9-11?
I'm not sure who's statement was more ugly.

Well one thing that amazed me about the UK is that say if you're an American here on holiday and suffer a fall/heart attack or whatever you get treated for free by the NHS.

You dont' get a bill for $600 from an ambulance service telling you that it was heartburn, not a heart attack.
-
Ah, this is it again, Beer time :)
Cya monday you grumpy old men hehe!!
-
F*** you Maniac!!! :p
-
er that actually happened to me - woke up with AMAZING chest pains - not amazing in a good way either - phoned the NHS hotline via their internet website - spoke to the Doc on duty there - next thing I know bloody great ambulance pulls up outside my door at 3.00am in the morning.
ECG and battery of blood tests later it's not a heart attack and one shouldn't eat pickled jalapeno's all afternoon without expecting some effect.
They were very nice about it though - phoned for a taxi and sent me home.
And no they didn't ask if I was a taxpayer, had an ID card, wanted to see my passport or my National Insuarance no - they didn't ask if I had insuarance and no one was even vaguely interested in my credit card details.

Carlsberg is piss, which is why Denmark fights so hard to exclude foriegn beer from it's market.
Coming to Roskilde airshow Santa? I'll bring a couple of cans of Guiness..... :-)

*cough*
Counting down again...
On the Denmark issue... They are closing Christiania down to... No reason at all to go to Copenhagen if theres no Christiania :(

My other and better half is leaving for Quebec today for a week. I'm gonna try to double my bodyweight while she's away using alcohol and red meat then when I pick her up from Heathrow, she'll think it's Elvis.
Thank you, thank you very much.

On top of that you could cram an couple of these bottles :D

Thanks for the thought Maniac . I think I'll stick with beer with everything though :) I'm aiming to be a fatter, more amorphous blob than I am already and this drink sounds too healthy.

I agree 110% with your opinion of mr. "Little-Mussolini", and if you have already understud the damage that he will do to Europe, just imagine what he is doing to Italy.
But one thing I cannot forgive you, is the shot on the Wine.
Yes the Wine with capital letter.
The juice of the Gods, the Blood of The Christ, the medicament of the brain, the sign of civilization.
ALL BOW AND PRAISE TO HIS MAJESTY THE WINE !!!

Europe is great...as a staging area and parking lot for our weapons of global conquest.
silly euros, there is nothing great about europe, even if the weekend arrives there first.
John Lennon (a euro) stated that the United States was the New Roman Empire and that New York City was Rome itself. Pretty good for a euro.
-
Maybe he was refering to the decadent Rome? ;)
Silly Murikan... :p
-
In any event, that was he where he chose to reside. seems that many euros of means prefer America over old decrepit europe. why would that be?

Not to throw a chill on the good feelings of Euros, but when the world ends in (I think) 2012 according to the Mayan calendar, it will end 6 to 9 hours sooner for you guys, and we will still have time to get down a case or two.
