Still a very worrying number of retarded Americans I'd think.

And start yet another religion? What's wrong with cyanide?

That is not always possible here on the island, though. But there are many alternatives.

We avoid them as much as possible, because a type like Bezos does not deserve our money.

Waarom blijven Nederlandse politici zo hardnekkig Musk's X gebruiken als ze net zo goed hier terecht kunnen...

Wow! At my age, seems like hell :D. But seriously, what disturbs me is the fact they call Madeira ´Hawaii in Europe'. I really hope Madeira will never be Americanized and commercialized like Hawaii. Note, BTW, that the Ukulele comes from Madeira, it’s origin is the Madeiran Cavaquinho.

Wij gebruiken hem als ontmoetingspunt als we vrienden afhalen op de luchthaven. Gewapend met een liter poncha van onvolprezen bar Formiga en bijpassende glazen. De sokkel dient dan als statafel, tot afgunst van velen😜

De beroemde Peixe Espada Preta, de zwarte degenvis. Traditioneel gegeten met banaan, de luxe versie is met een saus van banaan en passievrucht plus een gebakken Madeira-banaan. Zo is hij het lekkerst!

mind, it is not a canyon. It is a cauldron in the mid of this volcanic island. It is called 'curral das freiras' (nun´s valley) because the nuns used to fled Funchal with the church treasures whenever pirates came to plunder Funchal. The cauldron is not visible from the sea.

That's why I stopped using Microsoft long time ago. I am using the latest Linux Mint to my complete satisfaction.

Exactly. In the Netherlands, they estimate growth will be slightly less at 1.5% for the coming year. So we don't worry all that much. Only the German car industry will suffer a bit, they reckon.

Not just out of touch.... They could not care less.

It was, of course, an APRIL'S FOOLS prank! A rather good one as many fell for it.

Hij is er echt. Gewoon nieuwe feed toevoegen en zoeken naar 'zeilen en watersport'

Of course I know. But our corner has been 'blessed' with five weeks of 'mau tempo' with only 3 relatively nice days. Estou bem farto da chuva, honestamente.
