How many cities have dolphins, apes, and those crows built?
Obligatory Douglas Adams quote:
Man has always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much...the wheel, New York, wars and so on...while all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man...for precisely the same reason
I've often wondered where those obscure collective nouns came from. My theory is that some Oxford profs invented them after overdoing the sherry just so they could laugh at people who don't know them.
Right - and these plants just uproot themselves from the jungles of darkest Peru, randomly arrive in the supemarket and teleport themselves onto the shelves do they?
From my extensive knowledge gained by watching "Diagnosis Murder" and "Murder She Wrote", there's always a false lead; the obvious suspect at the 20 minute mark is never ever the real culprit.
Indeed the name implied that, so you are technically correct. However 1) in practice it acted more or less as one big republic and 2) my point about the republic not being democratic would be equally true when applied to Belarus, Siberia or whatever.

In my experience, the girls who have wives are the ugly ones.
What makes you think they can't?
Or the survivors eat their comrade who just took one for the flock[1] - waste not, want not. That's why the GP's never seen a dead one.
[1] or whatever the stupid name for a load of crows is.
I'm sure Apple will soon be bringing out the iCloud. And even if they don't, somebody will buy one.

Since Asda is owned by wally world, I'm surprised they don't have that dubious distinction.

So that would be a yes.
Babelfish translates "first post" as "erster Pfosten", so you totally fail it.

Travel back to the 1930s, replace Russia with Nazi Germany and Nato with the League of Nations.
I'd be happy to be wrong. Sigh. I think I need a drink.
You started it!
