  1. Not a problem. People in Apple stores think their farts don't stink anyway.
  2. The MFP weren't part of the ruling coalition, so wouldn't have had a say in who was chosen. They would have taken part in the subsequent vote though, and no doubt will under their new name, but still have fewer seats than the combined coalition parties. I wonder what would have happened though if all their MPs had moved to one of the coalition parties when MFP was disbanded, making it the largest single party in the coalition, and forced their pick for PM on it? They could have all jumped ship to the new PP at the next elections. That would have stirred the pot.
  3. If you have the 800,000 in the bank then there is also no minimum income requirement. You can bring in as much, or as little, as you want to live on.
  4. An archaeologist was digging on the borders of the Negev Desert close to Israel and came upon a casket containing a mummy, a rather rare occurance around Israel, to say the least. After examining it, he called the curator of the Israel museum in Jerusalem. "I've just discovered a 3,000 year old mummy of a man who died of heart failure!" the excited scientist exclaimed. To which the curator replied, "Bring him in. We'll check it out." A week later, the amazed curator called the archaeologist. "You were right about both the mummy's age and cause of death. How in the world did you know?" "Easy. There was a piece of paper in his hand that said, 10,000 Shekels on Goliath'."
  5. A Russian channel on Telegram proudly reported that they had destroyed two Ukrainian howitzers in the Kursk region. The post was quickly taken down though, and this is why: "Most likely due to a misidentification, the crew of a Russian Ka-52M helicopter operating in the Kursk region opened friendly fire on a military column consisting of several armoured vehicles. As a result, two Russian 2S19M2 Msta-S howitzers were destroyed." This is the most modern artillery type in Russia's arsenal, with a 30km range and capable of firing 10 rounds per minute. Good work men. Friendly fire mishap: Russian Ka-52M destroys own howitzers in Kursk (msn.com)
