    The girls said “no” when Jerzy asked them if they wanted to help him find a needle in a haystack.

    They thought this would be a safe place to avoid the upcoming election, but they didn’t realize that a million other people are going to have the same idea.

    “I will not be late, I’m just going to take a ring to a mountain”: That’s what Frodo Baggins said to his girlfriend before leaving.

    The thing the girls liked best about camping was that the menfolk did all the cooking and chores for a change.

    The thing they hated most was that their privy was not so close, because, you know, privacy. And if it was in the small brush, it was because bears did it in the woods…

    The girls went into shock when they realized the campsite had no cellphone signal. They had no idea how to communicate without emojis, and face-to-face conversations were as foreign to them as calculus or angular momentum problems.

    When I was a boy, I enjoyed camping. But now, “roughing it” means I’m staying in a hotel that will not provide a martini via room service.

    A better comment would be “I know San Francisco is not a healthy environment to raise children but this commute is killing me!”

    Okay, okay, it’s more of a fixer upper than I described. If you’ll just walk with me 10 miles in that direction, there’s a quaint two bedroom I think you’ll love.

    The brochure said, and I quote: “The High Tatras of Slovakia are an outdoor paradise. Jagged mountains, emerald green lakes, rugged hiking trails, and cable cars all come together to form the perfect adventure destination”. I don’t see any cable cars and my feet are killing me.

    all have info about this artist (mostly in the Polish last one, perhaps from his 1953 Polish biography; again, Chrome can automatically translate), perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. This is the first work by him used here.
