They kidnapped Ronald McDonalds!

They being FLA (Food Liberation Army).
Unless demands (a bunch of questions on McD's food and practices) are met they'll execute him on Feb. 11, 1830 local time.

Don't know if this is a joke or what. 
Police is investigating this as a theft.

Try 20" of snow.

It took me some 6 hours to download the updates to Star Trek Online.
It was a 5 GB download, and the connection from my end was not the problem.

Got spare cash?

[charge us an annual fee to have a tv]

Here in the UK, the BBC charge us an annual fee to have a tv. Fucking fascists. If you don't buy a tv license, it's a fine and then prison, and it goes 100% to the BBC.

They're money-grubbing bastards. We know this all too well. 

We have the same thing here in Finland. € 231.05/year.

And there is a new law coming that makes everyone pay a fee, even if you don't have a TV.

Mine arrived today (Jan. 4th).

Never seen an envelope so damaged. 
Contents were totally unscathed. 

Happy New Year!

Chainsword.

I got mostly utility stuff, but the big one:

 

• Roomba, cleaning robot.

That was all the info USPS gave me.

It's probably stuck in the Itella (Finnish Postal Service) central sorting facility in Pasila, Helsinki.
