    Practically anything which is not 'holy'.

    See Amazing statistics on smoking!

    So don't put cigarettes in your mouth hol(e)y.

    Holy = Set apart (i.e., letting God give you a purpose for your life).  This makes sense to me, as this life is no more than a blink of an eye compared to eternity.

    "One day you will read in the newspapers that Mr. Moody is dead.  Don't you believe it!  At that moment I will be more alive than I have ever been."  -- Rev. D.L. Moody

    Of course, if Jesus was not God, then folks like me should be pitied for not getting all the enjoyment out of sin before i breathed my last.   Like Paul wrote, if what Christians believe is not true, they are to be pitied above all others.  The trick is to examine the evidence with an open mind and decide whether a dead guy really did get up and walk.  If He did, then what He did is the most important event in history.  In fact, all history is then centered on His story.

    Something to think about.

     :)

    It hinted at the unmentionable. (Work) So in respect to Nathan I deleted it.

    You are as bits in a computer.  :-X

    No offense taken (by me, anyway).  It sounded like a good conversation starter for the Other forum.

    Hope things are going well for you, Mac.

        All too many replies are rather childish and that doesn't help either.

        Geez, can't you take a joke, Mac? I was only kidding. If it helps, I'll give a serious answer: I'm a student. I'm in my Freshman year of High School.

        That better, Mac? ;)

              Terrific! What do you arch, and where?

              Ever considered social 'architecture'?

              Would you prefer to live in a skyscraper in a faceless smog-filled city or on a farm in beautiful countryside with good views and clean air?


              i'm not so good in english so would you describe the word "arch" the translator machine gives a weired result.

              i work at my office that is builded on my house... that is located in the woods... (nearest "way" is on 200 meters (feet=???) from my office/home)

                        In case you're wondering; the reason I came back is because I felt bad about the private message I had left on the forums. The moderator deserves better than that as he's working quite hard on Computerhope.com. (Well, apart from the looks, which I am still convinced are bloody ugly!)

                        So consider this my formal apology to anyone insulted. Apart from the people that have been arrogant and say silly things when I try to help 'm. I hope they'll contract a nasty computer virus that will never allow them to switch to another operating system but Windows for all eternity.

                        I still can't be bothered answering questions every day, though. I'm sure I've typed so many characters now that you could string 'm all together and cover at least half the world with 'm. I'm not going to cover the other half of the equator as well.

                        Goody bye!

                        Figured it out in 0.2 seconds years ago.

                        I once put a plastic crow decoy on top of the garage to stop birds migrating over it and to keep Bull finches from eating all the cherry buds. Roof - Bird.

                        Ja weh (slang) (yes mate) sounds like Yah weh, sounds like Yahweh.

                        Jesu sounds like J'ai su (I have known)(knowledge)(carnal knowledge)(knowledge as in Taxi driver) J'avais su sounds like Yahweh su.

                        Roofvogel = Bird of prey

                        The words are interchangable too...

                        The Lunatic is in your head. Care for a poison wafer? Pluto = poison dwarf = plutonium.

                        Diet of Worms Piet?

                        So you can go 'fishing'.  >:(


                        I've just got to ask, Mac. How are you related to Merlin? This is schizophrenic babble. Not cute, not intelligent, not relevant, not anything normal.

                        There's your honest feedback for the year. Let's stick to computers now rather than your rants against reality. You make really good sense when you stay on topic.
