Oatmeal or cereal, highway or side streets, kiss her or keep her, we make choices and we live with the consequences. If someone gets hurt along the way we ask for forgiveness, it's the best anyone can do. A blog: http://michaeljritchie.livejournal.com/ Fran: You know, in Tibet, if they want something, do you know what they do? They give something away. Bernard: Do they? Do they? That must be why they're such a dominant global power.

Fun facts: - A horologist can also be a watchmaker, clockmaker, or just someone who works with any sort of timekeeping apparatus. - A bisque is also a creamy sort of soup, often a light chowder. This is where the colour gets its name. - As well as being a cool name, "xenia" in Ancient Greek was the word for the idea of hospitality, of kindness shown to travelers far from home. - The Germans still use the word "eisen" for iron, but you're right that it was an old form of the English word since English is Germanic in origin. - "Vade mecum" in Latin literally means "go with me", since a handbook would be carried around with someone. ~ Wolfgang Kaiser, Zeppelin Vigilante ~ "Kidnapping Nubile Victorian Ladies Since 1867"
