That is old King's Cross station in London, probably around late forties.  It was massively remodeled in the 1960's through to present time and now could be a station just about anywhere.

 

Looks like this now 

 

 

But at least it boasts platform 9 3/4 from the Harry Potter movies.

One time, a long time ago, Al asked why little spikes sometimes appeared on his ice cubes. 

While the question was answered to everyone's satisfaction at the time, I thought this video may be interesting.

I was looking up pictures of my AriPower Extreme amp on The Google to show someone. I'm wondering if there are some trademark issues here.

No headache, eh. Do you take it yourself or give it to her?

Reminds me as a prop for the joke.

 

Married man brings glass of water and 2 aspirin to wife.

 

Wife:  "What's this for, I don't have a headache...?"

 

MM:  "Well then..." (starts undoing his belt)

 

I think it's from the 60s that joke, when the running gag was "not tonight, I have a headache".

Ever time I load this thread I see Riki Lindhome's legs.

I was not aware "cunt" was a political party

"Cunt" is bi-partisan.

Could you write, without too much trouble, code that expresses the fact that my faux-nephew Colin is graduating High School next week, to wit: 

Phase I: Childhood : Complete. 
Phase2: Primary School: Complete
Phase 3 (College) Open...

It would be an interesting challenge. No worries if you can't ... Just thought it would be a cool puzzle for him to solve.  Java, C++, does't matter. Whatever you can do.

Me:

/* Don't remember what I did here */

Colin.education_level := Kindergarten;

/* ...more hand-waving... */

Colin.education_level := elementary_school;

while (Colin.education_level <= 6) do

    Colin.childhood();

 

Colin.education_level_completed := elementary_school;

Colin.education_level := high_school;

while (Colin.grade_level < 12) do

    Colin.adolescence();

 

Colin.education_level_completed := high_school;

Colin.education_level := college;

while (Colin.education_level_completed <> college) do

    Colin.post_adolescence();
