Well, the boar survives very well on the continent, even if its gone from the UK. I don't know how many other large animals you are thinking of though. There are Wolves in the alps, and bears in the Balkans I believe still. Deer in the UK are so numerous they are posing a problem to some trees now.
So really all big animals that I can think of are still there in Europe. What did you have in mind?
As for farming, there is so much land set aside these days because Europe over produces that I don't see how it is more of a threat than it was. Plus production is far more efficient these days, we are getting more and more from a square meter of land.

I thought Malaysian Airlines offered the shortest flights?

On the contrary! Malaysian Airlines offers the longest flight - it never ends!
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

I thought Concorde holds that record.

105 minutes is pretty long, compared to some: Westray to Papa Westray[^]
Admittedly they don't use Airbus A380s, but that's probably because the runway would have to be longer than the island...

London Paris is short, I did it once, it takes longer to taxi then fly, the plane goes up, they throw drinks at you, it immediately nose dives, and you are at CDG. Its nuts.

This was BA actually, they had to virtually abseil the drinks trolley at a running pace down the aisle before the plane headed groundwards.
Mind you, not as bad as the flight you linked, just looked, that's mad. 47 seconds! Just crazy. Why not use a boat, it must be cheaper!

Assuming the fastest connection available [IP/AC] it'd take longer to load the page than to take the flight.

During my first holiday abroad I was quite naive about the joys of flying.
We took off from Miami to fly to St Lucia on an MD-11 after a short flight we landed, it was a shock to find out this wasn't "our stop"
After 4 more take-offs and landings, with flights of around 10-20 minutes duration we did eventually land on St Lucia, our luggage didn't though, it took and extra three days for that to arrive.
Oh the memories.

I've ridden in a flat-bed, and I'd hardly call it comfortable, bouncing all over the road at the slightest pothole.

He's on probation in the US, and facing assault charges in Toronto. So just lock him up for a few years and give our ears a rest!
Please?

Thankfully, no.
But I had a sister who when "that age" played the same David Soul song over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over again.
I am reliably informed that girls of that age are still obsessed with talentless f**kwits today...

}
else

They don't need to lock him up, just a gag and a ban from using ANY media.

Or better yet, throw him to the crowd ONLY ONCE and they will take good care of him..
