          OK OK, after the beer question and the breakfast question, there is one thing that I am really intrested in: What hobbies do CPians have (exept beeing a CPian of course ;) ...) ??? My main hobby is beeing a firefighter, and when I look at the time I spend on our station, it's more than a hobby.... Another thing is making videos (producing semi pro documentation like my wedding.. :rolleyes: ) So, what do you do in your spare-time?

Huh? Like what? Now don't give me examples to "prove" your point. Give me solid reasons why superstitions are justified, and even if we agree for a moment that they did have meaningful origins, the "meaning" was correct. And why we as an educated class we should stick to age old practices. Hinduism was a good religion as religions stand. But now it has become a concoction of casteism, superstitions and rule of the brahmins. And don't send me to websites either. You made a statement. It's your job to defend it, not the website's. If I want to argue with a website, I'll go there.

                                      OK OK, after the beer question and the breakfast question, there is one thing that I am really intrested in: What hobbies do CPians have (exept beeing a CPian of course ;) ...) ??? My main hobby is beeing a firefighter, and when I look at the time I spend on our station, it's more than a hobby.... Another thing is making videos (producing semi pro documentation like my wedding.. :rolleyes: ) So, what do you do in your spare-time?

                                      Really, a firefighter? My father used to be the chief at a volunteer fire station and from what I can remember, it's a pretty cool job. Things I do in my spare time: When I'm by myself: 1. Surf the net 2. Play video games 3. Watch television or videos 4. Running 5. Weight lifting 6. Programming (of course:)) 7. Sleep!!! When I'm hanging out: 1. All but 1, 6, and 7 above 2. Golf and other sports 3. Movie theatre 4. Grotto (college bar) 5. Barbeque 6. Road trips Hmm, my post is getting a little long so I guess I'll stop here.:) Brad Jennings "You're mom is nice. Mind if I go out with her?" - Jörgen Sigvardsson

                                          Bangalore is a city in India. It's also the capital of Karnataka, a state in India. Actually he spelt it wrong. It's spelt "Bangalore" (bang a lore ;P ), not "Banglore". :) And yes, it's an Indian name.
