SoulOverflowing Member	posted 06-30-2006 09:49 AM I'm going to see 'Wicked' tomorrow. Now I can join in on all of the musical-related topics! I also plan to bring lots of cash, so I can buy lots of loot. I love cash that allows me to purchase loot. IP: Logged

SoulOverflowing Member	posted 07-01-2006 03:23 PM Question.... Has anyone read a book called 'Running with Scissors'? It recently caught my attention and I was thinking of reading it after the two and a half other books I plan to read. IP: Logged

Saint Aelphaba Moderator	posted 07-05-2006 12:28 PM WOW! Helen that's so great! You're one lucky chic! That's seriously, really awesome! Hmm... don't get runover by anything on the way down there. Oh I have a quote! UnexaminedLife, Scarecrow and a few others know what this is: "When I moved up here it was my wife and me in our old beat up Saab with a 5 by 8 U-Haul, dragging our asses through the mountains of North Carolina with a “New York or Bust” sign in the back window. We laugh about it now. We scraped the bottom of the car in the Blue Ridge Mountains and were stranded." Have fun moving!! Oh, and HAPPY FOURTH! My fourth was awesome, I've never been so close to fireworks - I head like 15 car alarms go off - no joke! and food, don't forget about the food. IP: Logged
helenbooktrip Moderator	posted 07-05-2006 03:50 PM oh yes! i couldn't get on the boards, but on July 1st i meant to say HAPPY CANADA DAY!! and on July 4th i meant to say HAPPY AMERICA DAY(i know that's not the actual name of it) to all of you members who live in the USA. hope you had a good weekend.

ready2flywww Member	posted 07-05-2006 03:55 PM heehee...I actually went to a bon fire at the beach on July 1st to celebrate Canada Day. We had a blast...drinks, marshmellow fights, smores, singing, star gazing... ^_^ ~ Heath IP: Logged
helenbooktrip Moderator	posted 07-05-2006 04:04 PM for real? Heath, that is COOL! but may i ask...why were you celebrating Canada Day? ps: i hope you at least drank Canadian brewed beer , if infact tha is what you were drinking. IP: Logged
Plant a Note Moderator	posted 07-05-2006 04:16 PM I have to say... my 4th of July absolutely sucked this year. Whose idea was it to throw a national holiday into the middle of a week?! On a TUESDAY no less?! Yoga had to be canceled for that? It sucked. Did nothing exciting unlike last year when I visited my boyfriend and we tried to park somewhere inconspicuous to have some fireworks of our own and ended up getting his car stuck in the mud behind a dumpster at a skating rink parking lot. Tried pushing it out, standing up to our calves in mud. Tried driving it out and covering the entire interior with mud. Then he finally was able to get his friend to come down and hook up the winch to pull us out. Yeah that was fun... [This message has been edited by Plant a Note (edited 07-05-2006).] IP: Logged
OvertheMoonforIM Member	posted 07-05-2006 05:11 PM HBT you whore! Don't think I didn't notice that the Canadian flag is larger than the good ol'... um, what's the name of our flag again? Whatever. IP: Logged
SoulOverflowing Member	posted 07-05-2006 05:57 PM Hey, it is! What the--- IP: Logged
Twyzzlyr Member	posted 07-05-2006 06:48 PM Personally, I think the US flag is ugly. Nothing against the country or anything. At least, not in this particularness. It's just plain ugly. I think the country should have adopted the Confederate flag after the Civil War as a small apology for the overrun of a fledling country. But that's just me. IP: Logged
Saint Aelphaba Moderator	posted 07-05-2006 10:27 PM it's also got the same colors - I mean could we be original with SOMETHING!? we stole our country's name from a mapmaker. EDITED FOR STUPIDITY my stupid bush quote of the day: (sorry to all republicans here!) "The question is rarely asked: is our children learning?" also - WHAT IS the name of our flag?!

Twyzzlyr Member	posted 07-05-2006 10:48 PM The Stars and Stripes. That's it. We're original. IP: Logged
jerseyminx Junior Member	posted 07-05-2006 10:54 PM Saint A. there are a lot of flags that are red, white, and blue that were originally british colonies. I saw somewhere that the originial idea for the US flag was the stripes as they are, and in the corner the Union Jack. It was much harder on the eyes. Generally speaking I don't think any flag is really 'beautiful' though. IP: Logged

King of Quox Member	posted 07-06-2006 06:54 AM quote: Originally posted by jerseyminx: Generally speaking I don't think any flag is really 'beautiful' though. The South African flag is pretty striking. I quite like the Nepalese flag too. The only ones who were bold enough to reject the rectangle! IP: Logged
Greenery Member	posted 07-06-2006 12:30 PM quote: Originally posted by Saint Aelphaba: it's also got the same colors - I mean could we be original with SOMETHING!? Apparently not. Don't get me started. I can go on and on and on... Oh, but let me mention: the tune of our national anthem? Yeah. An old English drinking song. Not even kidding. I like "O Canada" though. Lovely. But I am not going to get started... IP: Logged
Plant a Note Moderator	posted 07-06-2006 01:49 PM Who me? I don't have a Yankee Candle obsession. I don't know what you're talking about. shifty eyes IP: Logged

OvertheMoonforIM Member	posted 07-06-2006 02:43 PM yay Pan! Okay, this is weird. I just had a straight moment. I don't know if I just have to take a bit of time to get out of the straight frame of mind that I had been in for fourteen years, but ooh I will be so excited if I'm bisexual. (Does that sound weird? Yeah.) Anyway, I think I might be attracted to my brother's bands new lead singer. He's in my class, but I hadn't met ihm until last night. Then again, it could just be that he's cute and he can sing, and I just appriciate that. Of course, his ex-girlfriend is the first girl I had a crush on. hah. So I have no idea if he's just cool or if I might like him. I don't like him yet, but I think I could in the future, which is what is raising these questions. On the other hand, he smokes, and he might smoke pot. What the hell? He's like 16, ew. He's going to die soooo early. IP: Logged
Plant a Note Moderator	posted 07-07-2006 01:42 AM Hi all! Just wanted to give a quick heads up that I'll be mostly MIA from the boards until Sunday night. The boy is visiting! Hehe! Ohh yeah... IP: Logged
jerseyminx Junior Member	posted 07-07-2006 03:07 AM Greenery you do realize the our national anthem was written by a Brit right? IP: Logged
Acey Member	posted 07-07-2006 03:34 AM quote: Originally posted by jerseyminx: Greenery you do realize the our national anthem was written by a Brit right? Your flag designed by one, your first President one... the list is very long. IP: Logged
jerseyminx Junior Member	posted 07-07-2006 04:03 AM The first president actually born in the USA was... Martin Van Buren. The 8th president. But unless I'm mistaken (and I very well could be, USI was a long time ago) Francis Scott Key was truly British meaning he was in a prisoner during the war of 1812 (again I believe this is correct.) edit Ok so I was way off.. Key wasn't British. But it WAS during the War of 1812 that he wrote the poem that the anthem was based from. Greenery I apologize.

helenbooktrip Moderator	posted 07-07-2006 10:43 AM i forget who said it but....dont act like if you posted those flags that you wouldn't have made the american one bigger than the canadian one! anyway, it was not intentional, it just ended up being the size of the pictures that i found on the internet. also, i forget who said it, but there are SO many beautiful flags!! just a few ...(in my opinion) [This message has been edited by helenbooktrip (edited 07-07-2006).] IP: Logged
