So, I found Narnia today guys. And, I thought I'd tell you all about it. Okay so Brittney and I were supposed to meet our friend Sam for dinner, well Sam was at work and Brittney and I only had to kill like, an hour, so rather than go home for a few minutes and then leave again, we decided to go for a drive. Now, I know this isn't a great hobby given recent gas prices, but one sometimes struggles to give up their favorite passtimes. Anyway, right at the bottom of the of our road the are two "neighborhoods" now we both always assumed that they were little jug-handle neighborhoods that ended a hundered feet from the main road. So, I suggested we drive down one just to see what all was back there, and surprisingly the road didn't end. It was all shrouded with trees and stuff, and kinda unkempt, but the road kept going. So, so did we. Well, 100 feet turned into a really long, windy, road. About ten miles later the road starts to open up a bit and the sporadically placed trailer-houses start to turn into well maintained farm properties. Then a few miles later we see the hugest house either of us have ever seen. We described it to Aaric as "Like three stories. With a basement. And an attic. And some crawl spaces. And a library. And some tennis courts. And maybe a built in pool. And an attic in the crawl spaces. And wings. WINGS." It was... huge. So, we took mental note. (Our favorite part about our driving is finding pretty houses/churches or waterfalls/bridges that we can look at.) So, since the road kept going, we decided to continue on. There was like this whole world back there. We were going about 35 mph for a good solid hour, and finally decided to turn off and journey until we found our way back. It's just weird because on the other side of those "neighborhoods" that we thought were useless and tiny, there's total suburbia. So, where did they tuck this whole road in? Where did they hide all of the country property, farm houses, and rich folk? Well, there's only one answer. Narnia. Only it looks like this time the wardrobe became a whole neighborhood. Needless to say, we didn't hang out with Sam. But, we'll see her tomorrow, so meh. And it was a lot of fun. I love adventures. ------------------ IP: Logged |

I found this chat robot called iGod and was chatting with it for about half an hour. http://www.titane.ca/igod/main.html Note: this website is not at all meant to insult those who are Christian. It's just really funny. IP: Logged |

I had an extremely odd conversation with iGod today: God: God asked me on a date, lol... iGod also told me that the Virgin Mary was male. I think it's a little confused... IP: Logged |

LLK and Helen, I invited you two to a website I'm on. If you join that would be awesome, but don't feel obligated to do it ![]() IP: Logged |

i was talking to the iGod, and he said "what do you really want to ask me?" i was taking this as a joke, but now i'm thinking pretty hard, because i can't get a good enough question...i mean, i know it's just a website. but i enjoy asking myself questions like "if you could ask god one thing..." you know what i mean? so i figured i'd ask you all.

I'd ask how sacriligeous he thinks iGod is. IP: Logged |

All right. Who's picky with their grammar? Read this. Read it carefully, especically the beginning and the bit above the picture. It's making me laugh. How ironic... IP: Logged |

Yeah, hmm? Tell me about it. I'm thinking I should clip it out of the paper, edit it in blue or green pen (they made it look like it was edited in red) and send it back to the writer. OR I wonder if I could get in touch with the "Typo Eradication Advancement League" themselves... No. Darn. I can't figure out where. IP: Logged |

Who makes what look like it was edited in red ink? I think I'm missing something you two see. ------------------ IP: Logged |

nessaheart Member |
You didn't miss what I saw, Twyz. I got the actual newspaper, and it looks different there. "Typo Personalitie Armed with Sharpies erasers and righteous indignatin, two apostles of the apostrophe make it there crusade to ride the world of bad signs" ...and the needed corrections are "marked" in red ink. Only, there's no comma after erasers. And there are a few other grammatical mistakes throughout the article. IP: Logged |

I don't understand the whole thing with apostrophes. They just confuse me. Does any one else here think that there are more exceptions to the rules in the English language that there are rules? Seems kinda dumb. Well I applaud these guys IP: Logged |

talk to iGod about sex...its pretty awesome. and talk about penises and vaginas...also funny. seriously, talk dirty to it, its hilarious. also, tell him your name is "Sexy Bitch" and watch what he says. i love this thing. iGod goes from being a woman to a man in a matter of seconds. minxy, what website did you invite me to? was i supposed to get something in my email or facebook? ETA: a tidbit from a conversation with iGod i am having. i have a feeling i'll be posting lots of tidbits from conversations with iGod Me: God: Me: ------------------ [This message has been edited by helenbooktrip (edited 05-21-2008).] IP: Logged |

Your email Helen. It's kinda like an adult version of myspace. Online bar type thing. It's full of perverts though, that you sometimes have to deal with... definately no worries if you aren't interested. IP: Logged |

Oh, I see. Online it was correct. And the comma after eraser isn't technically needed. It's one of those rules that has changed over the years. I was always taught to put one. My mother was always taught not to put one. Both ways are considered correct. ------------------ IP: Logged |

These iGod conversations are good! Is anyone into analysing dreams? I've a bit of a strange question. A couple of months ago when The Wedding Singer was in Newcastle I was talking to a guy in the cast, Simon Lipkin. I make no secret of the fact that I'm a bit obsessed with this guy, he's really great. Anyway, whilst we were talking I noticed he had fluff in his hair and eventually pointed it out and removed it. Is the stretch from Simon's fluff to fluffy salmon too far?! I did realise the connection when I was drunk last night... but even thinking about it today, Simon is not too far from salmon and the fluffy bit is just weird! I appreciate that this is a very strange story but I'd just be interested in people's opinions! I think it's cool how our subconcious affects our dreams. My dream also involved bears and Simon played a Bad Idea Bear in Avenue Q but I think that's taking it a bit too far... the bears weren't blue! ------------------ IP: Logged |
