That's funny.

I sometimes play tennis as English in the 20's. My tennis buddy and I do a lot of silly, 'what what?-ing'

[Tessar]

You two are nerds.

HUGE nerds.




... It's nice not being the only one :P.

Ha ha, what?

Learned how to change a car tire today. Also learned that spare tires (at least ours) are puny.

[durinsbane2244]

hahahaha, i've always wanted to paint the tires on someone cars different colors...just as a prank to some random car...instead of putting it up on blocks...

Wouldn't that be vandalism? Bad, durin, bad!

[klatukatt]

Yawn. I bored.

I just ate a HUGE sushi dinner. Ah, sashimi good. Mmm... miso soup. Ikura, my favorite.

[The last sane person]

What what?

I say, katt, old chum, come get this turtle! Especially since I am leaving in a few weeks.

But seriously, whenever I hear that strange English lingo from back in the day, I am always reminded of A) My grandfather B) The rabbits in the Redwall series.

[klatukatt]

Right, turtle. That's why there's an aquarium in the back of my car.

[Tessar]

Katt, watch it please .

Her hind legs resemble those of a chicken, and she enjoys laying and being stroken by us like a cat. A real multi-animal!

Our cat is soooo flexible. She'll just plop down in the middle of the room and start cleaning herself by putting her hind leg all the way behind her head. Crazy.

Sort'a away from the topic of conversation but it is aproaching my birthday (the 21st)

And just about every year aproaching my birthday it seems like birthdays are showing up everywhere (Such as tv shows showing birthday episiodes, I read the bit in LOTR about Bilbos birthday, etc.)

I don't like it with salt, but it's a custom in the southern states of the US, and I guess other places, too.

I've heard that in Japan it's a sign of "being poor" to use salt on a watermelon. Because if you are rich you can buy a big sweet watermelon, but if you are poor you can only buy those that are not so sweet, so you need salt to bring out the sweet flavor.
And believe me, watermelons ARE expensive. But it's the same in the Netherlands and in the Netherlands it's usually more water than lemon, so for me it's kinda normal to have to use salt.
Try it! It really is (unexpctedly) good.
