I found a nice music video of the poem on youtube. the poem is truly beautiful, but very difficult to understand. But the video might give you some insight. If you want the full run down, pm me.
It's all in farsi, but still lovely. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMZbjulFgLw |

When I think Skrepping I think an old man with really long white beard standing on some God-forsaken mountain in Norway howling into the wind at night in his pyjamas. Or a decent name for Baggins. Sounds nice. In Xmas times I'll do that! Oregon Trail! Other people have heard of that game!? ![]() ![]() Quote:

If you really want to know, I can post them. In any case, it took me a long, long time to figure out how to use it on my Windows Vista OS; when I just stuck it in the CD drive, my computer just thought it was an audio CD and it played the Oregon Trail music through Windows Media Player!

Midge! *is shocked* How terribly un-culturally diverse of you!
![]() Floor comes from Fleur and means 'beauty' or something like that. My friend is named that. Actually, several of my friends names are in there ![]()

Fleur is also French for flower. So I always took Floor to mean flower as well.

I don't think my brother ever blew any of my toys up....
He just used to torture me by telling me my mom was dead when she was at work... Older brothers suck sometimes :/

It's the fear that does it. Monsters create fear just by being monsters, not only by doing any harm. It takes time to overcome that fear.
Once you get to know them, it's easier to overcome the fear.

I feel like drop kicking something. It's either them or Mooters. Or are you volunteering for the honor, GW?
