    I went there when I was a kid. I was 10 and we used to ride our bikes through the mall when they were building it. Nearby street is Kingspoint and there was also the first theater 4 movie house. Great times back then being a kid with not a worry in the world.

    Hi there. Saying that it was a free service is far from the truth. A lot of Danes got a great deal of wealth from evacuating Jewish folk from Denmark to Sweden, that is, alas, the uncomfortable truth right there. On a brighter note, I was recently at a ceremony in Lund Denmark to witness the unveiling of a memorial plaque commemorating the 80th anniversary of the rescue mission of Danish Jews to Sweden. The plaque commemorates probably the most famous of all of these fishing boats, K855. The plaque that is cast in Bronze and is set in to a large granite Rock was designed by the love of my Life - Anne Svensson, who is an amazingly talented individual. You will see the plaque is signed Anne. S which is her signature and it is a truly remarkable piece of art work that perfectly captures the mood of this most desperate of times.

    This video pretty much ignored that the role the University of Arkansas played in the history of the SWC, how it was notably not part of the cheating that happened in the late 1980s in football in the conference, and generally reflects why it left the conference in favor of the SEC. Notably, both Texas A&M and now the University of Texas, made the same decision to move to the SEC, but it took nearly 30 years for this to happen. Had there not been the arrogance on the part of the University of Texas, this could have been true much earlier.

      The SEC could possibly get bigger by adding Clemson and Florida State to the mix. And what do you do from there? Maybe they’ll create a feeder league to the NFL and break away from the NCAA.

    España es mi país, nací en él. España está en los libros de historia del mundo entero, somos conquistadores, col- onizadores, tenemos artistas y deportistas conocidos y amados internacionalmente. Hemos sido de los primeros paises en tener democracia. La gente de ultra izquierda odia nuestro país, pues nuestro pais tiene un gobierno feminista y de izquierda. Se quejan de la homofobia y la transfobia, sin embargo somos los unicos que pagamos impuestos para que sean posibles las manifestaciones, fiestas del orgullo, y cambiarse de sexo gratis ya que lo cubre la seguridad social. Somos los únicos que llamamos facha a los que les enorgullece lucir nuestra bandera. Odian al rey, si, pero se les olvida que gra- cias al rey nunca vamos a tener problemas con estados Unidos ni el dictador de Korea del norte nos va a amenazar com bombas nucleares, el seria el primero en morir por el país. Los españoles para mi somos de los humanos mas humildes y hospitalarios de toda la humanidad. Asi que con la cabeza bien alta diré. VIVA ESPAÑA. Y si alguien quiere quejarse de falta de derechos humanos que lo haga en korea del norte o en Arabia saudí. Por pensar asi soy facha? Pues lo seré, pero que sepais que no por serlo odio a los de izquierda. Respeto mutuo, lo dice la constitución española. Un saludo y feliz día del hispano.

    I like to creep around my home and act like a goblin I don’t know why but I just enjoy doing this. Maybe it’s my way of dealing with stress or something but I just do it about once every week. Generally I’ll carry around a sack and creep around in a sort of crouch-walking position making goblin noises, then I’ll walk around my house and pick up various different “trinkets” and put them in my bag while saying stuff like “I’ll be having that” and laughing maniacally in my goblin voice (“trinkets” can include anything from shit I find on the ground to cutlery or other utensils). The other day I was talking with my neighbours and they mentioned hearing weird noises like what I wrote about and I was just internally screaming the entire conversation. I’m 99% sure they don’t know it’s me but god that 1% chance is seriously weighing on my mind.
