Sorry Naut ...
it's already a bit late for that as you can see ...
A demo car was just shipped to me (with personalised number plate and all) ... I did tell them to send you some nice BV merchandise though

Ha! You think you can scare
me, Fearless Naut? If necessary, I'll call on a few Indian friends of mine, who know how to handle rogue elephants! The choice is yours: the boardroom or the zoo!

I heard about this the other day - isn't it bizarre that they set aside a day to concieve a child. The timing is such that is will/should be born on a particular day but I can't remember what it was....

No, no, no, I am super nice myself, and it's ladies first anyway, and you'll be the Chairwoman of the Board, President and CEO all wrapped in one lovely package - I'll just be the lowly driver. All I need is have my gas paid for, for obvious reasons! Just one other condition - I can NEVER be fired...

you got yourself a deal!

P.S.
We might have to hold a board meeting to discuss your last proposal further i.e. since I'm such a nice person, I will gladly let YOU do all the important work! ...

Brilliant idea! From one freak to another, as you know, these days it is essential for all kinds of good (and some bad, mostly pc) reasons to have two (2) marketing persons - a male and a female, or, if you prefer, a female and a male. And since you are the only female I know what a Bugatti Veyron is, and I am the only male on Blogit who knows, ours is an advertising-marriage made in Heaven! And in case you don't fit, I'll let you do all the important work, in front of the camera and such, I'll just be the driver...

Well well your blog has raised some really thought provoking (???) comments ... but how dare you call me a freak?
... hang on ... "no normal person knows what a Bugatti Veyron is" ???!!!!!! I see an opportunity here - if this is true than their marketing people are doing a lousy job, aren't they? Eureka! - I'm in the car industry, I'm in marketing - Voila! a match made in heaven
... of course the marketing person absolutely has to have a Bugatti Veyron in order to market it properly!!! hmmm I wonder if an elephant would fit in that thing

You're right, most of Europe has birth rates that
guarantee a dramatic drop in their indigenous populations - hence the rapid influx of Muslims, with all its problems! Remember Mark Steyn,
America Alone, and my series
The Islamist Tsunami?

Norway, Finland, and Holland all have dropped in birth rates. I personally think they are all messing with reproduction through lax laws and morals.

People have looked and are still looking at the reasons, and actually have some pretty good ideas. Without getting too technical, it's because Russia is a pretty f****d up country, no pun intended...

I just remember that I once read the most popular method of birth control in Russia used to be merthiolate or mercurochrome, or maybe it was iodine, painted on the cervix....I remember thinking at that time, what strange foreplay that must be........ Anyway, with all the Russian girls offering themselves up in the spam
I get at work (does Darla sound like a man's name?!), and now this news of the birth rate drop, what is going on with the
men in Russia?!
