The very first bomb dropped by the Allies on Berlin during World War II killed the only elephant in the Berlin Zoo. :thumbdn:

On the island of Jersey it's against the law for a man to knit during the fishing season.

Wondering for what so many paperclips would otherwise be used. Use lots of them, but only for clipping paper.

When I was 12 or so, making necklaces with paperclips and coloured tape was a real hype.   :orly:

Half of the kids in class were decorated with them.

Most chemicals are legal to buy without a permit in Sweden but not to mix. Chlorates and perchlorates were licensed in 1942 but were free again in 1988, which is rather unusual in Sweden. It's pretty rare in our country that restrictions or bans are abolished once they are implemented.

In December 1944 Belgium was formally annexed by the Third Reich as the Reichsgaue Flandern and Wallonien. At that time almost all of Begium was already lost.

One of my pal's neighbours shot himself today rather than having to go to a senior home.  :viking:

On the negative side that means one gun owner less in Sweden.  :-\

I hear that Sweden has a high suicide rate. Is this true??

Yes, pretty high. About 50% higher than in the US. Despite the low percentage of gun owners about one Swede daily shoots himself. Other methods that are popular are ODs, hanging oneself, cutting the wrists or jumping in front of trains.

I guess that's one of the reasons at least.

It is high, but not as high as in Belgium or Finland. Lithuania was on the top of the wikipedia list, based on WHO statistics

In Belgium the taboo on depression seems to be part of the reason that the suicide rate is that high.

Fucking Catholic church again.  :thumbdn:

In Sweden it's almost unusual that you are not somewhat depressed. I think about 25% of the Swedes have at one time or another medicated with anti-depressants.
