The quote about freedom I fell in love with the first time I heard it. It matches my political and philosophical views. The second quote I first heard from one of my high school English teachers. The principal of one of his former schools posted that quote in big letters on the door of the...

"Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyrrany of evil men. Blessed is he who in the name of charity and goodwill, shepards the weak through the valley of drakness, for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of...

Hey man.....have a good one. Hope the next year is filled with lots of tickling. -tf

Congrats on 1000 posts......I'm only 960 behind.....may I never catch up to you :) -tf

Favourite bad guy: Jules Winnfield in Pulp Fiction (played by Samuel L. Jackson). There are so many cool bad guys in Pulp Fiction, but Jules brings cool to a new level. There's a lot of depth to his character too. Favourite bad girl: Go Go Yubari in Kill Bill (played by Chiaki Kuriyama)...

A couple interesting factoids: 1) I've been told that in some arab countries, showing someone the bottom of your foot is a sign of disrespect, as it indicates that you believe the other person is beneath you. 2) In France, I was at a restaurant where Heinekin was cheaper than coke. 3) In...

Perception versus reality my friend, perception versus reality. As for the answer to the original question, I usually relate to people who don't relate to others very easily. As for an age gap....if I'm at a bar filled with 19 year olds, I'll definitely feel a little out-of-place. Ah, the...

Lucky guess. Then again, who in this form wouldn't like a superhero who got to slap the BatCuffs on CatWoman :) Meooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwww :)

How'd you guess?.....I had a mohawk for one day in my life. Needless to say it didn't suit me.....a completely shaved head is so much better :) Now, its off to my BatCave to think up a way to foil Ness's and Norm's plot to conquer TT and save the day.... - tf

Southern Ontario is pretty nice right now.....temperatures hovering around freezing. Still got the old BBQ going....fun :) And Dussicar, don't let those prairie temperatures get you down....just remember, you can always add a layer of clothing if its cold outside, but there's a limit to how...

Thanks to MissyVal for solving the translation issue. Actually, I came across an interesting tidbit...in 1974, by decree of the Prime Minister, the British switched to the American usage of the word billion (one billion = 1 * 10^9) largely because Americans insisted that $1,000,000,000 was...

Ness and Vlad are right....1 billion bytes is a GigaByte, and 1024 GB is a TerraByte. For future reference: 1 B = 8 bits 1 KB = 1024 B 1 MB = 1024 KB = 1,048,576 B 1 GB = 1024 MB = 1,048,576 KB = 1,073,741,824 B 1 TB = 1024 GB = 1,048,576 MB = 1,073,741,824 KB = 1,099,511,627,776 B - tf

In the spirit of the "what's your theme song" thread, I've got to wonder what ppl are sporting for their ringtones these days. I've had the Hockey Night in Canada theme song on my cell for a while....although my all-time fav was the time that I heard a friend's cell phone ring to the tune of...
