Al-I(as in fIsh)-stir ... hope that helps E&C...

and speaking of names running together and weird stuff like that... I heard on the radio the other day (Friday the 13th actually) that most serial killers have 13 letters in their name...

Theoore Bundy
Jack the Ripper
Jeffery Dahmer
John Wayne Gacy
Dave Berkowitz (ok, so his real name is David, which would add another letter, but anyway...)
Charles Manson
Henry Lee Lucas
Albert Desalvo

Anyway, I think you get my point...
Ok, quit counting the letters...

that was supposed to be Theodore, not Theoore... sorry 'bout that.

~The Oracle, Knower of all things Random and Irrelevant~

Whoa... Thats cool... Hmm... I only have 14 letters in my name, must me the homocide gene was passed over...

Coren: I have 9 letters in my name.

Esty: And I have... 19 letters in my real name, or 15, or 10, or 4, or 9, depending how you count it. Ain't sayin' what my real name is, though.

I have 15 in my full name not including my middle name. Or 11 if you go by my nick name and last name... Or 7, or 13!!! Wow!! If you use one of my nicknames and my last name, i have 13 letters!

*backs away very slowly*

How dare you all use this kindly quote forum as a place for evil talk of the murdering of serials! *shock*

"I have 15 in my full name not including my middle name. Or 11 if you go by my nick name and last name... Or 7, or 13!!! Wow!! If you use one of my nicknames and my last name, i have 13 letters!"

Dun, dun, dun!

I've got 17 letters in my name and I could murder a bowl of shreddies right now!!

OK, admittedly I have to use one of my newer nicknames, and it's slightly strange, but ti does still have to do with my name and about half my year level uses it. Also, I'm counting a - as a letter... X-Tina...

Wow, you guys really took that and ran with it.

I have 12 letters in my name if you just count first and last...16 if you count my middle name, and 9 is you use my nickname with my last name, and 5 if you just go by my first name...

Hey... 12+16+9+5= ...42 How bout that!

Yeah, gotta love Python...

"You know what fine stands for don't you? Freaked out, insecure, neurotic and emotional."
- The Italian Job (remake, no idea if it's in the original since I haven't seen it)

Yep... I've heard that... except we never say "Freaked Out"... we usually substitue it with more colorful words.

Please initiate me...

couple of quotes from George Bernard Shaw that I think everyone can identify with

‘You see things and you say “WHY?”

but I dream things that never were and I say “WHY NOT?”’


‘Few people think more than two or three times a year.

I have made an international reputation for myself by thinking once or twice a week.’

thanks, RandomDNA

'I often quote myself. It adds spice to my conversation'

- George Bernard Shaw

That thinking quote was, to st- to borrow a friend's expression, 'teh w00t!'

'Be good. And if you can't be good - don't get caught!'
-a very good veterinarian friend of mine

'Two slugs slithered on a yellow wood
And sorry I could not trample both,
Being one trampler, long I stood
And looked them down as fierce as I could
To where they sat in the undergrowth...

I will be telling this with a sigh
Somethere sitting upon a fence:
Two slugs slithered on a yellow wood
And I -- I ate the slug less trampled by,
And that has made all the difference.'

-Bucky Katt, from "Get Fuzzy"'s Famous Cat Quotes
