Not that they'll disappear, anyway. I'm sure they're as rife as ever in the 3rd world.
I've heard otherwise. Crab lice are now an endangered species.

side note:

Christ, i was just reading up on the subject and I'm shocked to hear the stats on pubic hair removal.
Evidently, some 80% of modern young adults are shaving their crotches!
Wow. In all my encounters, I've only seen one shaved pussy. I didn't like it. Seemed wrong somehow.
I'm so old fashioned, i should be in a museum.

I'd be keen to help, on the stipulation Erdogan stops being a cunt and they stop bombing Kurdish villages. And stay the fuck out of Greece's face.
I do not agree with imposing conditions on the provision of humanitarian aid. Help people first, and politics can come later.

I saw that the Pope is offering prayers for the victims.

Too bad he can't spend some of the church's billion$ on helping the needy...

He is.

Well, indirectly, through the Catholic Church's aid charity, Caritas. Salvation on faith alone is a Protestant ideal. Catholics are and always have been about faith and charity.

Probably right - I'd never not help the kids.

Al-Assad is letting aid through.

So he can return to bombing them when the aid stops.

I spent five years working in the international aid industry. There are a lot of misconceptions. Caritas is one of the biggest aid providers on the planet. Not a lot of people outside the Catholic Church know about it.

Hey Grayman! How's that chemical train wreck in Ohio going?

Saw some footage of it on the News and I'd bet real estate is gonna be cheap in that town .. East Palestine? from memory, funny town names over there.

But boy, I had one of those 'glad I'm retired' moments when I saw the mess. Heard "suspected hot box" and it brought back the memories of the accident report paperwork.

Any expert opinion on the cause?? Some one wasn't very alert, the report and footage showed sparks flying out from the bogies before the crunch.
