    Nothing, the surviving 50% could come and live in Europe, but Africa has less existing infrastructure and isn't a lot of use for anything else so it makes sense to use it as the cull zone.
    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

        Surely the best way is for every couple to have only one kid?
        ...my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

          Erm, I think AtW was the eldest so how would that help our plight?

            I'd prefer a zombie apocalypse. Playing Dead Island on the PC at the moment so got all my tulip worked out for that event.

                  I read of a neat way of opening cans the other day. Probably most people when confronted with a can and no conventional opener would proceed to smash it with a rock or something and risk pulping or losing the contents. Or seek a can opener. But there's an other way. You rub the end (not sure which end) vigorously against a flat concrete surface, which quickly erodes the lip exposing a weld where the lid is joined to the can. About a minute of vigorous rubbing does it I gather. Almost quicker than going to the kitchen for a can opener.

                    And that's what I told the wife when she caught me with my trousers down around my ankles and an open tin of spam.

                      You're supposed to eat the packaging too. It's the most nutritious part.
