I am actually a legally ordained priest - I can't remember for what religion though.

It was one of these things floating round the net a couple of years ago and I went: "Ok, this might be good for taxes" and got myself ordained.

So my children. I am pretty sure I coud marry you...

�Viva la raza Latina! �Viva Venezuela!

I'm something like 8 generations removed from Venezuela - the only Spanish spoken in my house was both my dad and me from what we learned in highschool and college Spanish classes. When I went to Bucknell I told them I was "hispanic" to get an edge in admissions. They originally had me housed in the Spanish House with "real" hispanics. When I arrived, they were speaking so fast I just stood there with mouth agape thinking, "I'm in trouble here." I got myself moved to a regular "white bread" dorm and everything was duck soup! Ironically, by my second year there I could speak like the natives of Spanish countries, having made several pilgrimages to Madrid and points surrounding. So when I say I'm hispanic it's with a wink and a nod.

Well, congratulations first of all to our new board couple!

I hope I'll be invited to the wedding...

Just for the record, though: Born in Tokyo, but German national.

How do you feel about southern Germany? We could always spend part of the year at my Cottage in Bavaria:

Lots of great bands from Limburg... currently millionaire is my fave from that bunch.

Although Gent is a step up the ladder . Be forewarned to fall in love with this place.

Are you coming to Gent to study? If so, what?

Anyway, see you around

If you're in town, drop by. International Federation of Guinness Drinkers unite!

For the record: Born in Iran to a father who was a British citizen who grew up mainly in Kenya and a Canadian mother, I received Canadian citizenship when I was 8. By father has dual passports, and I think I can get my British one as well. Spent most of my life in Canada with a 7 year excursion to the USA.

Yeah Tim's pretty funny. Millionaire is rock redefined imho. (well, queens of the stone age are pretty good themselves, although I preferred Kyuss in their days)

If you like millionaire, well, then check out like the best band in the world really, called Evil Superstars.

Seriously, not to sound chauvinistic or anything, but there's a lot of really brilliant music from Belgium. You guys don't know what you're missing. My favorites from the bunch are of course from my hometown (though they suck live every time they play here, it's really weird?) and are called Soulwax.

But I've derailed this thread long and far enough though, so I'll stop here.

did you know that 82% of americans cant find iraq on the map?
and 26% cant find the united states on the map!

i wonder what persentage of people cant find Armenia on the map? well you must be one of them, because its there! its an independant nation and has been since the collapse of the Soviet Union, just as it was before the bolsheviks came. its between Turkey and Azerbaijan, Georgia and Iran. and jsut for the record, Turkey and Azerbaijan have an illegal Blockade on Armenia.

now go and find Armenia on the map!
