They are really milking this story today. Good side to it, we should have a really nice sunset tonight due to the ash clouds.

I'd like to thank my friend, Kaylouise for asking the most dumbest question of the day so far relating to the volcano at Eyjafjallajoekull, Iceland...

"are we gonna dieeeeeee?!"

:lol:

btw.. how on earth do you pronounce 'Eyjafjallajoekull'? :roll:

Got to go outside today and contemplating if I need to wear a hard hat incase I get hit on the head by falling volcanic rocks.

Eyjafjallajökull pronounced something like "Eija-fjatla-j"œu"kytl" where "œu" is pronounced like the french word B"œu"f

News is reporting the Icelandic volcanos ash cloud is spreading and the UK and most parts of Europe are still largely effected. We are in our 3rd day of no fly-zone. Insurance companies will not pay out, putting it down to "act of god". Sue god then!

As John Cleese stated when he took a taxi cab from Oslo all the way to Bryssel which cost him 3900 € trying to catch a train back home;
-"Thanx to our Islandic friends, neighter can they run their banks nor their volcainos."
He wasn't that worried though as he took a short break at the bridge over to Denmark and talking to a journalist he said that it had been a great ride and that he was not at all in any hurry. Lovely nature and interesting architectures to watch on the way.

I think the news right now are bizarre, hysterical and a bit funny.
If we're all going to die, it is not because the planes can't fly now believe you me and it has only begun. ;)
