So the pressure's fully on me. Wouldn't have expected anything less.

It's actually not a bad movie and not viewed as such here. We're just a bit
bemused by its undying popularity (while cashing
in on it). And by how Christopher Plummer and his family after finishing that

the border to Switzerland.

I don't know where Google gets its data from, but LASK-WAC is going to be
played on Sunday afternoon.

Lassie sure is valiant ('wacker') so she has to go for those two.
The heraldic panther in Admira's logo is just the icing on the cake.
