To be honest with you Story Teller, I did not think that it was making a feeble attempt to challenge me to a game...I think it really wants to "blow me up".....and shoot. I poked a bit of fun at it in a thread a few weeks ago, and maybe it is still mad at me. However in the interest of good will...if it is looking for a battle...I'll lose to anyone, I don't care. You are one of those fellows who fits the phrase..."I didn't know he was a drinker, until I saw him sober" [ February 11, 2008, 11:38 AM: Message edited by: Nidan1 ]

We use the word "holiday" as a politically correct catch all phrase when we fear to offend anyone not celebrating a particular event or commemoration that you are celebtrating. Example "Happy Holiday" instead of "Merry Christmas" In other uses it means one day off in a work week, a "vacation" is usually the whole week or more. I hope that helps you non English speaking, English speakers.

Caesar was just being polite you ninny.....he needed Vorenus' services, and was treating his family with unusual respect in order to gain trust , and appear to be a man of the people. Add to that the fact that the water was pretty horrible in that part of the city, and I'm sure that Caesar knew that, so he made Vorenus' wife feel at ease. Now that is what a script writer would think, and that's probably why they are on strike, because boobs like you think their job is a piece of cake. You dolt, don't you know anything!

MIDDLE EAST CABLE UPDATE: Please note that in addition to the SEA-ME-WE 4 cable cut, the FLAG Falcon cable experienced a cut on Friday February 1. As a result, you may experience congestion to the following destinations: Egypt Jordan India-only small areas impacted Saudi Arabia United Arab Emirates Bahrain Oman Qatar Kuwait How vulnerable our communications really are. The great "Global Seamless Network" that all the major carriers advertise is just a myth. Be afraid....be very afraid.

Its a good thing Uncle Sugar can afford all of these toys. We laughed at the Iraqis during the first Gulf War for throwing up useless walls of AAA lead around Baghdad, now the US Army is doing essentially the same thing to blow up mortar rounds in flight....what next? The US Military should use all of its research and brainpower to figure out how to erect force fields to protect installations. now THAT would be cool.
