    Heh, sorry guys, but "I live in Amsterdam" will always be shorter and more effective.

    Might be, I have never heard about that though (but then I've only been in the US for 2 weeks :-( ). Next time I'll go there I'll make sure to try that line.
    What about "I'm a french living in Amsterdam. I used to live in Paris, but that city definately hampered my creativity" ?


    Do you dutch guys also have the craptacular (yet somehow ultra sexy) accent when you speak english? Because I'm pretty sure none can possibly have a crappier accent than a drunk frenchman talking about something nobody cares about.

    Do you hate Drug Cartels? Do You believe that the Drug War is basically a failure? Do you think that if we Legalized the Cannabis market, that use rates would drop, we could put age limits on cannabis, tax it, and other wise regulate it? Join The ORG Marijuana Policy Project!

    In American politics, similar to British politics, we have a choice between being shot in our left testicle or the right testicle. Both parties advocate pissing on the little guys, only in different ways and to a different little guy.

    Oatmeal's good for you. If it's good enough for a mule, it's good enough for a man.


    The trick is to use enough pork fat and spices to not taste the actual oats. Fennel seed helps as well.

    It's called "cream of wheat"

    but it still has a black guy on the box.

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    See this is one of the more marked differences in South Texas compared to the South. I grew up eating breakfast Tacos, menudo or Huevos Rancheros. I may as well be Mexican when I compare my culinary pallet to someone from Huntsville or Houston.
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
