I wonder how that can be. The Catholic Church owns real estate in almost every city in Europe, usually several buildings in larger cities, often in prime locations. Especially since these properties are only a fraction of the church's financial assets, the rental income alone should be enough to finance the church for all eternity.

Trump was also a member of the Democratic Party once - for 8 years (2001-2009) and he even donated to Harris back then. Source

Oh, Prince Andrew again. Well, this news is at least a little more flattering - or rather not quite as damning - compared to the last few times I've heard about him. Seems like a really great guy with very reliable business partners and kind-hearted friends, this prince.

C'mon, we can't expect the coroner to blow the whistle on the actual cause of death. If we did, there would soon be no coroners left.

Totally unrelated: A friend of mine was firmly convinced that Saruman would somehow assemble the Uruk-Hai out of wood. He thought it had to be that way because there are scenes in the movie that show Saruman having forests cut down, which then leads to the Ents intervening.

He didn't believe me that the wood was needed for war equipment and Saruman's weapon forges until I showed him the movie scene in which an Uruk-Hai hatches from a kind of amniotic sac.

Can you please write a review on Google or something? I would love to know how you would rate the Pelican's performance in your upcoming battle.

Seems perfectly logical to me.

And so it begins...

Edit: ...or ends, depending on the situation.

I agree. I hope that one day I will be remembered as a decent person by everyone who has gotten to know me a little. If that is the case, I think I will have lived my life well.

Yes, the "Klüngel" has a very long tradition in Germany - from carnival clubs in Cologne and Düsseldorf, to beer tent friendships or fraternities in Munich and elsewhere, to the Rotary and Lions Clubs in pretty much every German city. But I still agree that things have gotten much worse in recent years.

It's a crying shame, especially as many voters either still let themselfs be fooled by the pretended bickering of the parties or can't do much on their own to actually change anything. They don't see, don't want to see or just watch helplessly as the majority of at least the top politicians pursue the same goals despite their apparent differences: Unscrupulous self-enrichment and favoritism at the expense of the citizens and even future generations.
