Nuuk International Airport officially opens on 28 November. Previously anyone wanting to visit* Nuuk, which is the capital of Greenland, had to land 319km north at the former military airport of Kangerlussuaq, and then take a smaller connecting flight to the capital.

Kangerlussuaq is so small that each flight nearly doubled the population of the tiny outpost.

*by air, of course. Other ways to arrive include by dogsled, and kayak.

The phrase "original copy" is false and is an oxymoron (no, not a moron who breathes oxygen.)

If it's original it cannot be a copy and if it is a copy it cannot be an original. Yet we know what it means.

Down into the depths of confusion we go.

Visitor to Canberra: What's a nice place to see?

Visitor: What's there?

Canberran: Trees.

Massive storm with lightning coming through tonight.
If you never hear from me again that will be the reason.

There is a movement across X to name St Andrew the patron saint of X. I like the idea.

 

[Dona Ferentes]

There was a push by some purists to not allow Christmas to be represented as Xmas . It was pointed out that X was more than acceptable

Χρήστος = Chrístos .. the anointed one, the messiah

 

[wayneL]

...and just for those not aware, Andrew, an apostle, was crucified on an X shaped cross.

Ran the dishwasher this morning, opened it up after the final cycle and out popped a rather large huntsman.
Don't know how the hell it survived a 30 min washing cycle.
Tougher than spider man.

It's So Hard to Tell Who's Going to Love You the Best.​

A 1969 album by Karen Dalton was only successfully recorded by the engineer tricking Dalton into thinking the tape was not rolling. Dalton cut most of the tracks with one take, and all in one night.

"She was not interested in playing the music industry's games in an era when musicians had little other choice."
