:lmao:

Not a chance! Mexico has fewer jobs than the US and their government is trying get people to move OUT, not in.

Mexico's unemployment rate is considerably lower than that of the USA

Lots of Gringos go there to retire. Including Jesse Ventura.



Stupid idea. I realize he's a big guy with military experience, but even he wouldn't stand a chance against a bunch of thugs armed with fully automatic AKs. Mexico has one of the highest murder rates in the world(it's in the top 5 and will soon be #1)and you just have no f*cking idea how dangerously unstable that country is. Furthermore, the fact that he got in doesn't mean you or anyone else here will. And a low unemployment rate does not mean they are willing to hire foreigners.

THERE IS A NEW SERIES OF RED DWARF?

By The Black Hand Of... oh, wait, I already put that in my signature.... this is likely the most important event since the invention of... velcro!

Now all we need is a new series of Blackadder...

Yeah un-smegging-believable isn't it!

The first episode was broadcast last Thursday, was pretty good, not quite as good as the old series, but then I wasn't expecting it to be, but it did capture some of the old magic, and some dwarf is better than no dwarf.

It's being broadcast on a channel called 'Dave', not on the BBC, so I'm not sure what the situation is with it being broadcast in the states. I'm sure it will be out on bluray / dvd soon though.

Do yourself a favour, my friend from the land of awful processed sausages from hotdog stands - have a look for a streaming version. The first episode was screened last week in the UK.

How *dare* you!

Once more into the fray
Into the last good fight I’ll ever know
Live and die on this day
Live and die on this day

NO ONE insults Danish sausages! You might as well have insulted Danish *butter*! I would have nuked your self-absorbed island on the spot If I knew how to avoid hitting Rowan Atkinson!

Time to settle the score long overdue from you British bastards bombing Copenhagen in 1801 and 1807. Now, the gloves come off...

Or Danish bacon. Or Danish Spam.

Used to be good, but now Lurpak isn't nearly salty enough. The Food Standards Agency might have had something to do with that.

My Dad and I vacationed in Mexico a few years back. I assume how dangerous it is depends a great deal on which part you go to.

27,000 people were murdered in Mexico last year out of a population of around 110 million. From what I can tell, it's mainly northern Mexico and the border areas with the U.S. that are the most dangerous.

No it hasn't. I'm considering getting a no region DVD player just in case they don't issue a Region 1 Red Dwarf X. Also some of the programs like Lewis or Hex are edited either for time or content in their U.S. release and I'd prefer the full Region 2 versions.

So, this is turning into a sausage contest, is it?
