Interesting but I wouldn't quit your day job. :)


It needs a bit of an edit but it's still better than any post you've ever made.

Lololololol. I have a deep voice. That was one of the songs I could sing when I was young.

Yeah, that was how things were in the coal mines. That's illegal now.

/e Btw, I made the gif (up above)... The Barb Song, a little slow for those who didn't have English as a first language.

No he's right it was a socialist song...circa the late 1800's in the coal mines.

Everyone worked ungodly hours...everything they bought, they bought from The Company Store...and that store gave credit too. It also had high prices.
It didn't take very long for all the miners to be indebted to The Company Store...and then they couldn't leave the mines, till they paid that off. And they could never afford to do that. :/

U.S. to provide more than $533 million in aid amid African conflicts, drought

Quote
Tillerson contrasted the United States’ work on the African continent, which he said promoted “sustainable growth,” with that of China, which recently pledged $124 billion for its Silk Road plan to expand links between Asia, Africa, Europe and other places. Tillerson said China’s investment in Africa “encouraged dependency”.

“Chinese investment does have the potential to address Africa’s infrastructure gap, but its approach has led to mounting debt and few, if any, jobs in most countries,” said Tillerson.

I like how NK says simply "we wont need nukes if all hostilities aimed at us cease" and the headlines read "NK offers to give up nukes". As if we're going to stop being hostile towards the worst regime on the planet that imprisons its own citizenry and tortures them for basically no reason.



LOL

I do a pretty good cover. It's popular round these parts anyhow.
