    Oh really? Then probably I should give it a second chance. I'd like to be able to sing "The Islander" though surely it wouldn't turn out so good as Marco's rendition. I can't quite get that song out of my head...

    Ahhhh...Jack is really cute!

    Janine, I'll soon reply to your previous post!!
    Ok, whenever is fine...

    I am too tired now to post much or be very entertaining. I think I need to answer your post more fully above; one before this one. For now though a question. Max, do you look anything like this -



    Ok, you two, let's grab a bottle of rum Maties and be off in Jack Sparrows Black Pearl for the exotic islands in the South Seas! Be sure and bring the hammocks.

    Do you remember its name? It could be traced and maybe found somewhere on the web. Probably a re-installation would make it work again. A safe thing to do is to keep copies of installers, in case you need to set the program up again after accidental erases and the like

    Yes, yes, a great idea... I wish my voice sounded well enough I guess not all of us are meant to be famous though Anna suggested above that maybe others can like my voice while I don't like it myself
    Some people have made such a habit of posting videos on Youtube that it seems they have a whole career doing it... though their videos are not really any one of William's plays not even anywhere near

I have researched it and the real story is even more amazing and hard to believe. Let me know when you will watch it and I will rewatch here, too. I own the 3 disk set....great stuff!
    As soon as I set my eyes on it I'll let you know

    Well I'm more slender than skinny though lately I've been developing a couple rolls around my waist. When my mom has lunch ready I behave more or less like this: though fortunately I haven't gone this far: so I still have some hope.

    I have seen a few of Ernest's works though I must confess I'm more learned in modern-day movie and TV industry. He's 92 by now, and still active. I found he has some projects in production for next year. I found Airwolf's soundtrack while surfing the web. Here it's very hard to find soundtracks, especially classical ones, unless you buy them on-line.

Of course, what really cracks me up about Dr House is that he nearly kills off the patient, right before he saves them...happens everytime. He sure uses the defibulators enough, doesn't he?
    It's incredible how he portrays a character who gives a first impression of a somewhat cold, insensitive doctor only concerned in diagnosing, but when we watch carefully we can see how the man has a heart of his own, how he seeks for a way to heal a patient and how he suffers when he's about to lose the fight, though he pretends he's just doing his job in an objective way. Only great actors can portray characters with such conflicting personalities

    Both of you should hear my confession: I am very pirate myself. I have been pirating lately ... and this pirated thread is a good proof of my word

    This thread was abandoned in the middle of Lit Net's Sea, so it's ours now... and the LEAST WE ARE DOING IS TO TALK ABOUT OUR CRUSHES ON OTHER LIT-NETTERS. but it's just fine because they don't seem interested in this thread any longer, so if we crush on any of them they would probably not realize

    It does make one feel rather powerful to have a whole topic of their own

    I might be an internet pirate, but I don't know about the viking. While the vikings sailed the seas to look for someone to fight with, Finns didn't travel so far just for that: they were quite satisfied with stabbing each other with their knives

    Stabbing each other is much more practical than picking fights with other countries. You don't need to build so many fanciful ships for that... just knives and one or two swords and/or shields from time to time... maybe .........

    I'm watching the MTV Video Music Awards right now. Taylor Swift won the award for best female video. When she was making her speech, Kanye West walked up on to the stage, took her microphone, and said that Beyonce should have won. Poor Taylor.

    ^ yikes. And the Tactlessness Award goes to...

    "But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
    "Oh, yes, I do."
    "In flames and torment?"
    "Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
    "That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said.
    "Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.

    ^ The media thrives on controversies to get higher ratings and this will get everyone talking. But I just find this kind of thing distasteful.

    ^ Taylor left the building in tears. She's only 19 years old, and this was her first VMA award. Kanye should be ashamed of himself.

    ...so much for our own private fun; apparently, we have been highjacked or pirated onto another ship - called 'Live Chat'!

    So, a little surgery will do the trick, Max?....hummm...which part of the face needs help? Also, to match Johnny Depp's look you may need a lot of heavy eyemake-up.

    Is that ship the same "Bounty" used for the movie starring Anthony Hopkins and Mel Gibson?
    Oh I don't know; I do doubt it. My friend sent me the pirate ship pictures awhile ago. I have two more of that particular ship. She said it's the actual one used in the "Pirates of the Carribean" films. I don't think though, it hoisted that American flag on it's mask, during the shooting, do you?...more like a skull and crossbones. It's moored in some harbor in Florida, probably near or in Disney World. Cool, isn't it? It has probably be used in a lot of films; yes, that is a possibility.

    Oh you're quite thinking about pirates, aren't you? How "viking" of you!! Annamariah is very resourceful and creative. She's a good viking!

    Both of you should hear my confession: I am very pirate myself. I have been pirating lately ... and this pirated thread is a good proof of my word
    Could you expound on that and clear up the mystery. Specifically, are we talking about ships or computers?

    Anna and Janine are going to convert me in an art expert!!!
    My culture will go higher!!!
    I'm going there right now
    Some of it might rub off on you....after awhile.

    This thread was abandoned in the middle of Lit Net's Sea, so it's ours now... and the LEAST WE ARE DOING IS TO TALK ABOUT OUR CRUSHES ON OTHER LIT-NETTERS. but it's just fine because they don't seem interested in this thread any longer, so if we crush on any of them they would probably not realize
    That's what you think....we've been found out. Abandoned true, but we are now relocated to this new location. We've been MOVED to another ocean!
