EXPLORE SOME ENGLISH LANGUAGE PARADOXES.
Quicksand is slow acting, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is
neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but
fingers don't fing, grocers do not groce and hammers don't ham. If the
plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose,
two geese. So one moose, two meese? One index, two indices? One can make
amends but not one amend. If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid
of all but one of them, what do you call it? If a vegetarian eats
vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? Sometimes I think all the English
speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally insane. In what
language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and
send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? How can a slim
chance and a fat chance (or a hot chick and a cool chick), be the same while
a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? You have to marvel at the unique
lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in
which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which, an alarm goes off
by going on. English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects
the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all.
That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights
are out, they are invisible.

I am going on an extended HP leave, so won't be on for next few weeks. So farewell my beautiful peoples 'n' pets. You all deserve so many *hugs* and *glomps* and *kisses*. Bless you all :)

So I will leave you with an excerpt from 'V For Vendetta'...

...It seems strange that my life should end in such a terrible place.
But for three years I had roses and apologised to no one.
I shall die here. Every inch of me shall perish. Every inch, but one.
An inch. It is small, and it is fragile, and it is the only thing in the world worth having.
We must never lose it or give it away. We must never let them take it from us.
I hope that, whoever you are, you escape this place. I hope that the world turns and that things get better.
But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you. I love you. With all my heart. I love you...

*Last thing at night*
noticed how a lot of people have added lyrics to their page.
Just heard the most beautfiul music at the end of Naruto (only seen a few episodes so far)
Do like the ending lyrics and music tho :) (beautiful chorus)
so for all my glorious beautfiul pets....

"Cultivate your hunger before you idealize,
motivate your anger to make them all realize,
climbing up the mountain, never coming down.
Break into the contents, never falling down.

My knee is still shaking, like I was 12,
sneaking out the classroom, by the back door,
A man railed at my twice tho, but I didn't care,
waiting is wasting, for people like me.

Don't try to live so wise.
Don't cry, 'cos you're so right.
Don't dry, with fakes or fears, 'cos you will hate yourself in the end.

Don't try to live so wise.
Don't cry, 'cos you're so right.
Don't dry, with fakes or fears, 'cos you will hate yourself in the end."

Am thinking of biting the bullet and finally trying out World of Worldcraft.
It's this kind of stuff that intrigues me as much as it scares me :)

Thought it was worth it just to hear Guns n Roses sing the McDonalds theme :)
