Imagine you had just bought a picturesque farm in the back-blocks of sunny Portugal. There was a large barn on the property with the door welded firmly shut. Curiosity forced you to grind the door open, to reveal this. You'd hope they weren't all stolen.

this deserves deletion if only for the omission of the beetle tag.

It definitely needs something else other than Yahoo.

Perhaps - yahoo found it for me as the top link with just the word "portugal" as search phrase, which was the first thing I tried.

(although I must admit I knew it was a double, it was just a matter of figuring out how to find it. I guess I was lucky that portugal isn't a regular on metafilter).

I don't know how I can look at this description and know it's a double before clicking the link (despite not even caring about the original thread) and not remember where I put my keys.

I was so confident is was original because a friend told me they just bought the property with the money Elton John owed them.

So Elton finally paid up, eh? Huh. Last time I saw him he told me he'd gone through all of his bank accounts with those hair transplants.

Dude, I heard Elton John is gay -- not that there's anything wrong with that.

Lucky for him Dianna died and he was able to re release Candle in the Wind and make a heartfelt fortune.
