Whut do you think of Ricardo Montalban? Whut do you do to books? Youre Bad! Does it tell you a lot, that I had to search for Ricardo Montalbán... I like the fact that he appeared in Star Trek and was the face of Chrysler. I digitise books... Very much like what google are doing? Only this is for student educational purposes..

Have you ever torn a page out of a phone book? Have you ever underlined the important parts of a book and then returned it to the library? I hate that. Why are there certain books that can't be checked out? How am I supposed to read them? Is the librarian supposed to read it to me, like at storytime? Do people ever do chalk drawing on the floor at your library? I love that. Yep!! To wipe my arse with. When your on those compost toilets and your out in the middle of no where, anything helps, even harsh, inky paper.. Never!!!! I'm cursing the studnet/staff of my university for doing that!!! I spend half my day rubbing out pencil... ITS HORRIBLE.. Some of the books are too old that if I give the page a little rub, the link actually starts to come off, ggggrrrrr Well, certain books cost a lot of money or they are very rare, out of print, etc. Therefore, the library needs to maintain its collection & ensure that valuable books are not stolen or lost. It happens, when even staff members of a library steal books. How shocking No story time at Uni... Only TAX, Accounting books to read, not!! We have more than just finance. No creativity... Only through fancy multimedia displays and online suggestion boards. We're moving in to the social networking as well. Facebook & Twitter are apart of our library.

Dragrat, how old are you? I always pictured you being around Avril's age. Are you about the same age older or younger? I'm surprised you didn't know. Actually you can find out by looking at my profile in this forum... Or I can give you the answer or close too. I'm a year older than PLite.. ;D

Oh so you are the same age as Tyler. I'm 25. I never would have expected you to be so young. Maybe it was your old avatar that made me think you were much older.

I presented myself in that way, because some people have said I physically look older. Plus my maturity & insight, has been seen by people as me being older than my biological age...

You don't look as old as Sir Gandalf, Bru.

Note you have a choice!
Isowhey's good, though. And you would probably find it helpful.

Dragrat, how did you meet Avril? Did you meet online (movie vault) or in person first?

I think there are various versions of that. My version is that I first met Ratty some time after I did his mother's astrology chart in an esoteric bookshop in 1992.

I first remember Avril, when I went to her house with my mother, when Avril was conducting a 'character' workshop. Must have been in the early nineties... I remember having to catch a bus to a strange place & walking for ages!! to this place where I had no idea what to expect or who I would met..
To day is the first official day of the Dragon Boat season. So I'm now a registered member. Had an excellent today. Really improved on technique. I found I don't get tired that easy. Surprising, but true. This means I'm using my legs & hips more and not collapsing on my chest when I'm 'catching' the water with my paddle.

Do you watch Ghost in the Shell? It's very famous here in the States but I've never seen it.
