Hey! How come I can only vote for myself 5 times?!? :cry:

Happy birthday stevecurious! Hope it's a great one!

Oh man! I wish I had known white stingray hide was an option when I was redoing the living room! That's seriously crazy.

@ masterowls - That's exactly why I laughed so hard - I can't imagine anyone actually asking you that! It sounds more like a scene out of The Jerk than reality. That's ludicrous. Sorry for the thread-jacking all - here's my bucket/wish list (not in any particular order): Go to Samoa and get a real, traditional tattoo over top of one of my 17-was-a-long-long-time-ago tattoos. (That'd be a tattoo with a meaning and story that should last as long as I do.) Vist Angkor Wat in Cambodia. Have a son. Learn how to start a fire by rubbing sticks together (and get good at it). (I know that one's a little strange - one of those connecting with my ancestors sort-of spiritual type things for me.) Solo-trip from one end of Algonquin Park to the other - West to East one year, and North to South another. LOL - okay, this one would likely be the last thing on my list - fight a black bear with nothing but a knife. Don't get me wrong, I'm not particularly tough or anything, I'm scared of bears just like everyone else and I really don't have any desire to be killed by one. There's this part of me though, that wonders how I'd make out in a fight to the finish with a black bear. (I think it's one of those things like sometimes on a balcony you might have this slight urge to jump) LMAO - nobody said this list had to realistic! While I'm being unrealistic - make love to Gillian Anderson.

Happy birthday Scott! We hired a few ladies from the Bunny Ranch to come spend the day with you (Mikeyboy worked out some deal involving farm animals??)... but apparently they've been held up at Customs - it doesn't look like they're going to make it through. It's the thought that counts though, right?

@ masterowls - my comment got cut off in your post - LMAO! I literally sprayed coffee out my nose when I read #3. :lol:

Happy belated Birthday gboy! Hope it was great!

Fight Club, The Matrix (1st one), The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Fifth Element, The Big Lebowski

No... Why does everyone keep asking that? I don't get it. I don't see any resemblance at all. He's all black and white and sketchy looking... and "dirkgently", really? What's that all about? Douglas Adams? Seriously? What kind of a geek references Douglas Adams? :wink: Besides, I'm much better looking. :lol:

Good call Cato! Just two words - mmm, mmm.

Luxie, I have a few tattoos myself and depending on the woman, I may find tattoos to be a turn-on (Bif Naked is soooo freakin' hot!!!) An attractive woman is an attractive woman though, and if she didn't have tattoos I wouldn't find her less attractive. Lexy902 - You look pretty darned good as-is to me. If you're seriously considering a tattoo though, I'd strongly recommend keeping one thing in mind - it is permanent. I know, we all know it, but I think sometimes we don't grasp the full meaning of it - permanent really does mean forever. I'm perfectly happy with my tattoos - growing up in the North End of Hamiton, raised by a steelworker father (with tattoos), being a musician, playing in rock bands... tattoos were the norm for me. I have to admit though, that I feel a little silly sometimes when someone asks me what the great-big-dragon wrapped around a sword on my shoulder means and the only true answer I can give is that it seemed pretty cool when I was 17. If you're seriously considering a tattoo I'd recommend finding something that you're sure you're going to be happy with for the rest of your life, because once it's there it's there. Oddly enough, when was 17, I was sure that dragon would be cool forever! LMAO

True, that does pose a small problem, but I've devised a workaround - I've decided to believe that each and every one is the only one. With a little help from Buddha, Barry White and a few litres of my good friend Mateus Yahweh, Allah and Vishnu will be suffering identity crises in no time. :wink:

Hi Amelia I'm a little late to this thread, but here's my two cents anyhow... Not only do you have to get rid of fruit, vegetables or whatever, but you also have to get rid of the water. Don't even leave a damp dish cloth, put the plug in your drain, move any plants to a different room - don't leave any water for them at all. Even if you clean everything up and disinfect, the flies can persist - you have to get rid of all the water too. It could take a week or so, but if you're vigilant with everything they will disappear.

Happy Friday the 13th all! I'm not particularily superstitious, but I do have to admit that sometimes I wonder. I mean, what if there is something to it? I believe it was a famous physicist (I can't remember his name) who said something in reference to believing in God or having faith in a religion and practising - basically I think the gist of it was that if you believed in God and died and there was no God, then no harm done. However, if you didn't believe in God and it turned out there was one, then you were screwed (lol! I'm sure the actual quote is a lot more eloquent than my version!) I'm partial to this point of view and worry a little every now and then about whether there is something to superstition. I mean, what if there really are creepy old Gypsy ladies that can make you waste away to nothing with a simple touch? I've walked under a few ladders, broken mirrors - what if that's what was responsible for any misfortune I've experienced? I'm fairly confident that there's nothing to superstition, but I can't know for sure... Consequently, every once and while I find myself going around the ladders and avoiding the touch of creepy, evil-looking old ladies. I have a friend that honestly truly believes that he can effect the outcome of a Stanley Cup game by rearranging the pictures of his family on his television set - seriously! I tease him about it, but I know that he's completely normal, educated and intelligent, so really, who am I to judge? I thought it'd be interesting to find out who else was or wasn't superstitious, what superstitions you believed in, superstitious things you might do, superstitious things your friends do, the origin of some superstitions, whatever... I thought it might be fun to share...

Happy birthday(s)! :wink:

Congrats WIT! I always enjoy your insights - thanks for sharing!

Congrats Megan! I always enjoy reading what you have to say - very much looking forward to more!

OMG! OMG! OMG! Okay, if I promise not to wear my speedos can I come to the party too?!? Holy barbeque-flavoured-fritos Cato that's hot! :shock:

A Superman reference?!? That's so hot - very sexy indeed Amelia! :smile: I think my wonder twins power just activated... oh wait, hold on, that was more than just the twins... :lol:

That's awesome Spike. Seriously, I think that's really very awesome. :smile: The world would be so much better if there were more people like you in it doing things like that.

Thanks for all your hard work mod! :smile:

My new favourite pic on CERB - absofreakinlutely hot! Posted by Ashley Croft - Ashley and Veronica... Veronica who? I don't know... the stunning Veronica Sway (misadventure) maybe? All I can say for sure is that this picture contains two VERY fine looking ladies... "Oh my god, oh my god..." he mutters desperately as he rifles through his pack, desperately hoping he hadn't forgotten to bring his extra shorts this morning...
