    That photo won't be accurate for long if she actually does love bacon. There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

    That's one hell of a kitchen knife. Only too bad that she doesn't know how to use it. The final downwards cut is done with the back of the blade, not the edge. ;P Why can't I be applicable like John? - Me, April 2011 ----- Beidh ceol, caint agus craic againn - Seán Bán Breathnach ----- Da mihi sis crustum Etruscum cum omnibus in eo! ----- Just because a thing is new don’t mean that it’s better - Will Rogers, September 4, 1932

    god you are realy 12 arnt you, you insult and then think its a game, wiki need to change its definition of troll and just point it at you. let me see Franco-Prussian war, a war started by france by attacking a long standing ally, yet as the UK wasnt threatened we kept out of it, WW1 Germany attacked a country with which we had a treaty to aid them why would I speak a dead language instead of one that has been developed over hundreds of years and is pretty much the defacto would language (even Itailian Universities are changing to english as thier language) no I choose to point out that if you do not stand for something you end up the bitch of someone who does. for someone so limited in there outlook I find this ammusing Quote: For example, as you have said, I live abroad, in France, perhaps I am a greater patriot than you because I live in the country that invaded and dominated Britain? Perhaps speaking French is the true patriotic language (if you chose the 12th century chunk of Britains timeline.) firstly France never invaded UK, that was the normans a nordic race and in 11th century (your history is so poor) in the 12th the Normans were kicking frence ass all over france after the french king stole their ancestorial lands if you think that history has no impact on your current life then not only are you insulting but stupid, a lot of people gave up thier lives so you can say such things, if it wasnt for those families over the centuries france would not even exist maybe you should get off your bigoted high horse and look beyond the girly mags headlines you seem to be rlying on You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.

    reminds me of a cool joke the neighborhood kids played on me when I was younger. My parents were upset when I finally asked them for a sunshine (I thought it was a ring pop) at the store. NOT FUNNY!! If it moves, compile it

    If their concern is genuine, wouldn't it be better to have a policy of no unaccompanied children in the store? It would also save them money from all the kids spoiling books kwhilentheir parents use the store as a child minding facility while they have a coffee. I will be visiting a book store as soon as possible in the hope of being ejected from the kids sectio (because I look like a perv) and sue the living bejesus out of them MVVM# - See how I did MVVM my way ___________________________________________ Man, you're a god. - walterhevedeich 26/05/2011 .\\axxx (That's an 'M')
