    In socalist countries peoples become too lazy because they get something for nothing, when you get something for nothing is no incentive to work hard so they become lazy and want everything but not prepared to do hard work that is why socialist countries always have corruption because peoples with drive ambitions know that if they work hard can exploit the system because the lazy people are too lazy and stupid to care or understand. In capitalist countries you have to work hard to succeed which is as it shoudl be, the hard workers get rewareded and the lazy workers get punished by not getting rewards of the hard workers.

    There's a new house for sale down the road from me with no eves, crammed on to a small section on the edge of a main road. They're now offering a tiny Suzuki car in with the house and asking $495k. The trouble is that it's probably worth $100k less.

    Another brick and tile that has just been finished on a section that was promoted on PT. It's been for sale the whole time they were building it but I see now they've given up and are offering it for rent.

    That is one of my favourite war movies. Actually more of a drama thriller with heaps of character development. And extremely realistic too, based on frequently occuring real-world events.

    I think they even shot it as accurately as possible, mainly using the legit old WW2 Russky and Kraut weapons (in Tito's Yugoslavia i think, making the backdrop as communist as it was legally achievable back in the late 1970s, and as similar to Krasnodarskiy Kray as possible outside of Russia)

    5 out of 6 posts in the "new posts" heading are from TPR2, cause he's surfing the net looking for opportunities! :-)

    I was going to say wasting time surfing the net, but I'm sure you're not! ;-)
