The Land of the Giants





This is an older shot from the Apuseni Mtns - Transylvania. No Dracula was involved in this shot! The guy in the picture was our guide, not related to Dracula either!

Today's joke:

One Sunday morning, the priest saw little Davey staring up at the large plaque that hung in the church's foyer. The plaque was covered with names and small American flags were mounted on either side of it.

"Father Donovan," the boy asked, "what is this?"
"Well, son, it's a memorial to all the young men and women who died in the service," the priest explained.
They stood together quietly, staring at the memorial plaque.
Little Davey softly asked, "Which service? The 9:00 or the 10:30?"

    1. Maybe there some bears left in the area, not so sure... but I remember about the newspapers blaming the ex-prime minister for his savage pleasures in hunting bears, organizing hunting parties for him and his mafioso clan, but as I recall, I remember as well that few years back before these savage prime-ministerial pleasures, that people were complaining about bears coming into towns, searching for food in the trash cans, killing people on few occasions. Well, you know what's the problem with the media, they're exaggerating, lying, manipulating...
