Say, I was just kind of wondering where everyone's from. If anybody should like to send more info on which country they're from, that would be neato. Just curious to see where people like me live.
My e-mail address is garyguy@softhome.net
Thanx to all

There are rumors of me living anywhere from Canada to Mexico. I'd rather prefer to live in anonymity, however your poll is anonymous enough for me to take part in it. So, I live in North America.

Canada's better.
<major Canada-Australia war breaks out in 5 years over this disagreement. WWIII has begun!>
Not really, as its fairly cold here (dir, it is winter, rofl) and the Americans don't take kind to our anti-American ways (I wonder why...). Well, with the new PM, Canada will essentially become American Jr if his complete (although unspoken) agenda is forwarded.

NOooooo.... Canada become American Jr? Noooooooooo Canada's great as 'tis. All hail your anti-American ways! Have I mentioned that I like French, and I love French Leet? I'll admit to laughing at Canadian accents. But I'll also admit to hating US accents. Hehe. And a Third World War? But Canada and Australia aren't Third World countries! [rsuroflmao]

Hey, man. Don't hate us Americans.
Although most of my idols are from the U.S., a good many are from other places.
Being a guitarist, my idol is Paul... Well, the lead guitarist for RAMMSTEIN. He'd be German, if he wasn't so German.
And the God of all bassists is... Jim Creegan, bassist for the Barenaked Ladies, my favorite band of all time. I mean, ever. Also Canadian, Mike Myers. He's awesome.
But also way up there are Scotland and Australia. One band name - AC/DC.
No, I don't discriminate against other nations. Except the French...

"No, I don't discriminate against other nations. Except the French..." I hope that was a joke I don't hate Americans. I hate SOME Americans... If anything, I've got a small prejudice against Russia. But let's forget about that. My favourite German word is Zeitgeldundauskunftsmittelsvernichtung. Apparently it means "a complete waste of time, money and resources". I don't really have any idols. Yeah, well I've got nothing more to say. Except that Australia is a really great place to live.

Of course it was a joke. I'm learning German through RAMMSTEIN translations. I'm probably screwing up all of the grammar, so it really doesn't count.
A great phrase: "Nein spiel mit mir!" = "Don't play with me!"
I yell this whenever Jeff Cook, a TA (and serious pervert) comes within 5 feet of me. 'S cool, 'cause he doesn't even know it's German. He's dumber than a post.

Hey, some of these posts aren't that dumb If you want the French version, I believe it's "Ne joue pas avec moi" although if you don't know how to pronounce French, don't try. Latin would be something like "Noli ludere mecum" (more like "NOLILVDEREMECVM") Polish: "Nie baw się ze mną" And of course, let's try QB... BEEP END

ROFL! As far as WWIII starting through a Canadian-Australian war, you've apparantly never watched the Flash video, "The End of the World" on tightashell.com. Its a solid 2 minutes of laughing so loudly people can hear it down the hall (literally, I watched it in school once and people at the other end of the school (a good 3-400 meters away) could hear it. Nearly got me suspended too ).

I've seen that cartoon, and didn't find it all that funny. My favourite part is "But I am le tired". Some cartoons I would recommend: www.burntfaceman.comwww.autopack.com/aleks/files/rejected.wmv"Forehead shavecut" [exceedingly random] I'm going to soon stick these up on my website, after I make a kind of CMS to deal with them.

A lot of good things came from Russia. But then the peasants revolted and slaughtered the people with great minds and culture. Truly the peasants were being treated terribly, but the régime that began then was worse than before, for many people. And so much rich culture was gone. Anyway, I feel like going to Canadia. (That's where all you Canadians come from, right? ) But I can't right now.

Well, I've plans to go to Australia some day (unrelated to this board. I've quote a few folks I know in Australia and it sounds like a spiffy place), so maybe I'll see you on the plane (rofl! I highly doubt I'll ever leave my country, save for a business trip. I don't take vacations, just days where I don't go to work (my boss calls them vacations because I schedule them for that day) or school (my teacher calls that truancy ) and I haven't enough money to even think of flying anyway on my own money (e-mail and the Internet will do in 99.999% of the cases)). Besides, what if <gasp!> you were all perverts of some sort!
