the unavoidable private messages! Hi Maribel. :)

:stunned:and neither do I!... U2 - Electrical Storm..:cool:

Chris Martin: "That's Great! Keep playing!" What should I play? Chris: "Play anything... just play anything!"

Yes - correct - she is married to Seal! She's great - and she's got good bite!:laugh3:

Well, you're really not lost at all if you've gotten here!:hat::bandana: Got Questions? Just ask - you'll get answers!!;)

Gleetings to you, Jason, & to you all!:) I have a cousin out in LA who works in the movie business - editing prequals, and such. Anyhow, keep those production qualities high!;)

Nutters?:rolleyes::stunned::laugh3: Alright, Tracie - yes, Tuscon's ave. rainfall in June is 0.2", and the temps. ave. 37C for the highs in June. Ya gots me!:sweatdrop::wink: But that's not always the case! It just might be raining, or windy, or overcast.. So, Sean, what's it like?? Do they still sell water from bags draped over the backs of burros'?;) How's the water sitiation?

:rolleyes::\:laugh3: ^^ Well, as long as it's a good cult, you'll be fine!;) The last dream that I recall - I was dreaming it was morning, the birds were singing, and I got up with a bolt, scrambling like the day had begun, only to realize that I was looking at the sun setting, and I was on the couch taking a nap!:laugh3:

With each new turn, a new mystery is revealed - be patient, and savor every moment!:artist:

Hello Marina from Holland!!:) What brought you out of the shadows??:P

Hello Sean of Tuscon! How's the weather out in Sunny Arizona!!:sunny:

Toaster :laugh3:I just can't help but laugh - does this mean the toast is done??:P But now you can sell ads galore, and buy a new toaster - one that makes two slices, and can even do bagels!:P:dance::fireman:

Hey, no cheating now!:P You should learn to play it by ear - that's the only true way..:laugh3:

Hello Alex !!!! :) Welcome to the magical mystery board!!:hat::jester::daisy: Step right this way.. How has the city of lost Angels been treating you these days?;)

:laugh3:Oh god, that's funny! Is there any privacy left in this world??:P

Now technically, the fruit is the fleshy part covering a seed.. Tomatoes qualify! Chocolate is really sugar from cane stalks, and roasted seeds.. but the strawberry qualifies! Anyhow, I think I would be a wild black cherry. I like the intensity of the flavor:cool:.. though I had a girlfriend once who had nice strawberries:p:p

So, does this mean that, by identifying the types of baked goods being produced on a given day, we could accurately predict Chis's thoughts based on olfactory lobe - associated memories?:laugh3:

Yea!!! Chicago is now one step away from ruling the Empire!:laugh3: The University of Chicago's finest hour!

Yes, I think we all got an overdose of religion at one time or another in our lives.. Although Tracie, I think you've seen wayy more than most of us regulars! I can only imagine growing up that way.. I think you've done quite well for having the bible thumping right at home!! I just took the messages way too seriously when I was younger, and now I take it all with a little salt and mustard - so much severity isn't normal, and I think blocks a lot of common sense thinking at times.. Buddhism sounds like a nice antidote - serene and contemplative, much more of an inner-peace thing - that's nice to have. So, the sandwich:p should be fish (tuna, sardines, or fillets) on bread, with ground mustard;) for the holy show... (That would make it properly biblical..)

Chris Studied Ancient History in College?? So, it is true then? Yellow is actually about his visit to see King Tu Tut Kohmmen when the mummy was on display at the Louvre in Paris?:\

The Kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed... So, basically, collect a bunch of the seeds, grind, add vinegar and marjoram to taste, and spread the kingdom heavily on your favorite sandwich, and enjoy!:laugh3: (oops! never mind me - it must(ard) been' the Kaiser roll in me shining through!):P Hey, that's good to hear - even us agnostics get to see the Christian model! (Is she cute??:rolleyes:)

Hell and back again.. I've been to Hell, and it's really pretty nice!:devil::sunny: Good company - lots of intellectuals, scientists, and quite a few free thinkers.. (anotherwords, don't believe everything church officials have to say; think it through logically, compassionately, and broadly about someone before deciding where in the spectrum of behavior their lives fall..) Personally, I think we get the kind of society we create and maintain; we can choose to live in more hellish or more heavenly a world, based on the choices we make.. it's more about aspiring to be like Bugs, and less like Daffy.. The world is a reflection of our choices, priorities, and our nature - we are given the choice, and the intelligence to see farther. There is no higher God than truth; so keep that in mind - morality tales can be dreamy and poetic and still unveil broader truths, but if someone claims something that sounds too fantastic to be true, it's probably a hoax. We can think amazing things with our imaginations; but the truth will set you free xfrodo.;)

Grab the Bull By the Horns, and Wrestle those Finals to the Ground!!!:bandana::sunny: Good Luck Nick, and catchya later!

Congratulations Ian!!!!!!!:joker: Your site sits @ 27,382!!!!!!!!:thumbsup:
