I dont know... that subtle British humour can often escape me.

Tone of Meaning,eh? What would that mean to you?

Hi, Tygert. One of my favs too, with ground black pepper. In a way life's like a sandwich. Slice of bread on the bottom, your life growing up and doing the very best you can in school. The middle of the sandwich, your life as an adult with bigger responsibilities (with a family and important work and home of your own). Top slice, retired and maybe a Gra ...[text shortened]... appy people along the way may try to criticize you unfairly. No worries. Just stay strong. (gb)
Thanks very much GB. A good piece of advice. Taking a five minute from the studying...

Please, let's not be ridiculous. Thank you.
Flagface is available anytime you want to borrow it, Bobby.

One fringe benefit of showing the colors is that it seems to annoy the Brits.

No thank you, Andy. I'll keep and cherish "Liberty Lady", whose compassionate posture and outstretched torch are known and valued by many families across this nation and around the globe (including my own immediate family and generations that preceded us from Sweden). Your athletic "Flagface" seems to have gone missing. Did she take a hike or sabbatical? The Brits happen to be our friends (including many on Red Hot Pawn). Why would we purpose to annoy them? (gb)

I'm in a three hour technology exam on my laptop... It is based on google sketchup. For those of you that don't know sketchup is an architecture application and I have to build on office... I'm done though which is why I'm here. I have 1 1/2 hours left. Boring...

You should always take your time with exams.
You are given 3 hours for a reason. I know that
most will probably do it in 2 hours but always
take the time that is given to you. Look at it as
an opportunity and not a barrier.

Someone asked me once what I was putting on my hamburger, to which I replied, 's ketchup, want some?

Sam Adams would have tossed you over the side along with the tea.
