They are, but where I come from, there's only rabbits, and we just assume a bunny is a bunny is a bunny. To see huge mutant death rabbits is a huge shock.
I grew up in America, so, for most of my life, a rabbit was a fuzzy little critter about the size of a football which hops around suburban lawns. In Western Europe, however, that is not the case. The rabbits here are huge--bigger than my first dog--and wander the streets at night like well-armed Turkish hoodlums.
Okay, everybody always says that Liberia and Myanmar haven't converted, but what is there their real status? Why haven't they converted? Is it used in practice without official blessing? What do they recognize officially in its place? English? Traditional units?
I don't know how often this problem comes up, but I am in a small apartment with a district heating-connected radiator. Right now, I have way too much window area for my own good, and my radiator cannot keep up. Unfortunately, earlier this year, I replaced all the bulbs in my apartment with compact fluorescents to keep from having to replace them all the time. The room is considerably colder. I had no idea that just how wasteful incandescent light bulbs were until I needed their heat. Additionally, because the apartment is so cold now, the CF bulbs take an eternity to get bright.

Westinghouse actually produces lots of reasonably priced, reliable, and innovative goods... ...for the nuclear power industry.
Since when did they start making TV's?
On the same note, I prefer to think of physicists as mental mastrubators.

Where exactly in the meterologist pecking order does the "Weather Channel's most prominent so-on and so-forth" go?
Peanut butter makes very few people cool. Tobacco makes *everybody* cool.
Small children will run after their ball into the road, and 100mph cars and small children don't mix.
That's the whole problem: At 100 mph they mix all too well.

I'm sorry, I can't. Bono made me prejudiced against the Irish.
Sorry.
Doctor Guy: That is the worst case of crabs I've ever seen.

Seriously, fuck those rabbits.
NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
oh, wait...
In other words, these pictures are one billion years, two months old.
It is seriously not right when the grass is bright green from Nov to Jan in Sweden. And that despite the fact that the days are six hours long.
I stand corrected!

Of course, this will be unpopular here,
Enter: the Internet martyr...
but who cares what other space agencies think? Are they as successful as NASA? Have they broken more new ground?
Like putting the first man into space, the first satellite into space, the first probe on Venus, the first animal in space...
All of my tractors parts are standard measurements.
The irony of that statement is overwhelming.
...the "40K" in Warhammer 40K isn't US dollars.
Honestly, being German and all, child porn is probably one of the more positive things they turned up.

What? Didn't dinosaurs hatch out of chickens in your science textbooks?
Did anyone else read that as Sybian?
Skype + Sybian = Teledildonics?
Fantastic: We killed the wolf, we killed the coyote, and now we're creating a device to reduce the number of the deer's last remaining predator.
Now, if we could only make a robo-whitetail-suicide bomber.
