    “Hiring of public servants”

    Answer:
    Anybody who will vote for the Broad Fraud and keep their mouths shut about the abuses that went on under 'No Money Pepe' such as the Pizza shop manager who was appointed head of the Oncology Department at Maldonado.

    And I kid you not.

    More amazing is the fact that a pizza manager can do a better job than professional politicians did during 180 years...

    WHAT!

    First: Uruguay has not had ANY professional politicians ever since the terrorist scum known as the Tupas took a stranglehold on the Broad Fraud.

    Second: it has not had an oncology department for 180 years. I doubt if they knew the meaning of the term 50 years ago.

    Third: she has a degree in medicine, does she? NO? That's not a surprise.

    I knew you were a lying, deceitful bastard, but I never realized you were so stupid. Only a complete and utter idiot would think some floozy who is ‘close’ to ‘No Money Pepe’ is a fit person for the role.

    One of my close friends grew up in the same area as this cretin and knows her well. She told me that she couldn’t run the pizza parlour so she has no idea how she was given this role. I think some of us can work it out.

    But others NOT!

    They ARE Italians who claim this ‘research’. :o)

    That was tongue in cheek, but the compound lycopene in tomatoes is generally agreed to protect against gut tumours, and also more recently prostate (welcome news for seniors : ).

    But the Italians do get some things right.

    Lovely thing that Ferrari, and in the right colour!

    At last a road going car that can match my road going motorcycle 0 - 100 kph at 2.9 secs.

    I wonder if it can beat the 0 - 100 - 0 time of 4.0 secs? :o)
