Nope….. for me G7…….Russia’s suspended. And living in Thailand I’m not a fan of Russians. Good chess players though.

The name is inaccurate since it doesn’t include the top eight economy.

Or Iceland – whose banks apparently have the power to bring the world economy to its knees.

I think it stands for Group of Seven/eight………A club that meets to discuss the price of rhubarb ……….Comprised as you say of the top economies …….But a club nonetheless and restricted in that sense. Russia joined to make it a club of eight…..G8…but has been suspended as part of the West’s sanctions over Russia’s destabilising and takeover of Crimea.

So currently it’s G7.

 

There’s a G20 also I believe……But to emphasise my point 13 of those economies are not invited to the G7 shindigs.

 

Just googled…….http://www.international.gc.ca…..x?lang=eng

It appears that Paul certainly has the dominant facial features.

I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.

The Beatles picture looks very similar to a guy who worked at my library for about a year. Flashback moment.

Maybe there was just him and there being four Beatles was just a ruse.

Including today (24th September 2015) since i signed up i will have been a member here for 138,932,941 seconds (almost 1,029,132 listens of ‘No Reply ‘ or suffering ‘Hold Me Tight ‘ 914,032 times).

Amazingly thats how long an episode of ‘The X-Factor seems to last yet is shorter than any Carpenters song i’ve ever heard.

That means that this site is old. Like such old site. It’s probably older than Citizen Kane.

I can see the relevance in the sense of Adam’s son being old……or…. MMM’s sleepy boredom with the Carpenters……….er??….and that Cain escaped to the Land of Nod……

Otherwise??? ‘Fetch…..Anna’s medication nurse, she’s having another turn”

Interesting fact: The Irish title for ‘Breaking Bad’ is ‘Ag Dul In Olcas’ which literally means ‘getting worse’- what a crappy translation- I hope whoever did that got fired!

That could make sense if you look at Walter White getting progressively worse.

Have been reading about the first record contract Brian and the Beates signed with EMI and whether or not it Brian should/could have gotten them a better deal or not (1 penny per every single sold). So its interesting that the co-writer of ‘All About That Bass’ Kevin Kadish has come out and said that he has received $5,679 in royalties from 178 million streams off the track which equates to $90 per 1 million streams (source: BBC).

 

Doesnt seem like much has changed at times.

Its not a sleepy boredom. Its a far more intense hatred of everything they have done because they are such a boring bland meh band who, for some reason way outside of my understanding, are heralded as being one of the best music acts. I cannot express how much I detest them and every damn song i’ve ever heard of theirs. As said before I had to listen to their greatest hits (‘Gold‘) in Wales (my protests were ignored). If given the option i’d have willingly agreed to listening to every ELO track had ever put out instead.
