It's basically deep fried peas. I think chickpeas are most commonly used. You should be able to get it at any place that serve kebab. Around here it's not uncommon that hamburger stands has it.

My favourite veggie fastfood is falafel and it has a very meaty flavour.

The Puppet Masters But if you're certain that the parasites are inside their hosts then this isn't it.

In Sweden it's shown after midnight.

I don't mind dubbing for animations, all version are dubs and there's nothing that says that the original is going to be the best. It depends on the casting. 'Fitzcarraldo' could be an "exception" for regular movies as well. It has two official dubs, english and german. The actors spoke...

The only German cop show I've seen (and avoided) is Inspector/Kommissar Rex, it's about a cop dog called Rex and his master.

I've seen 'The Shackled Continent' by Robert Guest recommended.

It's been a while since I saw it but I think that you got to see the bird struggle and enough time passed underwater for it to not be likely to survive. The other animals might not be considered as important as they are "lesser" animals and they are also rumored not to be able to feel pain...

'The Puppet Masters' by Robert A. Heinlein involves parasites that take over their hosts and the main character has his body taken over at one point of the book but in the beginning he's a free man. It's not Heinlein's best but I still think that it's a good book. It starts out with very...

One of my favourite dystopias that hasn't been mentioned yet is 'Kallocain' by Karin Boye. It is similar to '1984' in the sense that it's about the development of a truth serum that could make thoughts illegal but it was published before it. Karin Boye (1900-1941)

It's lovely and not a typical love story. Neither are the other movies I've seen by Kim Ki-duk. Is the part where a fish is skinned and in the British version? There were some parts of the animal cruelty that made me wonder if they didn't bother to use special effects instead of real...

'Small Gods' is one of the books that I've reread the most times. It's also a good choice to begin with since it's one of the few stand-alone books.

My last name is close to extinction so I don't expect to see it. I'm thrilled just to see my first name in a book. At least if it's a book by a non-scandinavian author, since my name isn't very common outside scandinavia. It was used by Terry Pratchett in 'The Fifth Elephant' for an...

I hadn't thought about the stinkiness. But I think you just toss/bury the remains (as usual when loved pets die) or as Crystal suggested making pie out of it. Either way it might have to end up in the freezer for a while.

It was returned unfortunately. Since it didn't fall this time it probably wouldn't have been flat enough to fit in an envelope anyway. One a whole different matter I'm interested in becoming a conservator of animals. If I aquire some kind of rodents as pets I could use them as practise when...

Thanks for bumping this thread. If you hadn't I'd probably missed the oppertunity to get this brilliant book. I'm going to purchase it for everyone I love.

Found a kitten whining outside my window on the sixth floor. Took it inside and eventually found some neighbours that were missing a cat. They had been down looking for stains on the concrete.

I believe you're looking for "The Moomins" (mumin) by the finland-swedish author Tove Jansson. There are some really great books in the later part of that series. Bibliography (It lacks the first Moomin book, 'Småtrollen och den stora översvämningen' (my translation: The Little Trolls and...

Apart from the first two books there's no plot that continues between the books. A general recommendation is to at least read the books that focus on a certain group of people in order.The best recommended reading order I've come across on the internet. (though it's not up to date any more.)...
