  1. One Word. Perris. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  2. Very, very good post. Nick "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

  4. Next step the "three letter" guy's/gals will be hanging out at manifest with a dog. *** Hey... I saw a guy with a dog at the DZ last week... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

  6. If you're using IChat, click on your avatar, it will let you edit the pictures. You can pick any photo/design you like (upload your own).

  7. I'd suggest a discussion thread from a while back called "Religious Based Intollerance" for some good information on the subject of reliability.*** If I remember correctly, the thread addressed the issue of how much time lapsed between events happening and them being recorded in writing. I am alluding to the fact that the English Bible, which had to go through at least 2 layers of translation, is more than likely inaccurate compared to the original document. I would even venture in saying that the English Bible is different than the Spanish and French one. Although supposed to be the same "Book". Which makes its textual value questionable. I am not judging its spiritual value. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  8. depends on which translation you're reading. the oldest texts use a word closest to murder rather than kill, which is different.*** The first "written" Bible (old testament) was written in Hebrew and Aramaic. The first New Testament was in Koine Greek. It later got translated into Latin, then from latin to many modern languages. How anyone can claim that the version they are reading is TEXTUALLY ACCURATE when compared to the original document (which prior to being written was passed along orally) is beyond me. Anyone who speaks more than 1 language knows how some words can be mis-translated and mis-interpretated. Following the Bible to the letter certainly does not mean following the teaching of the original documents. At best, it means following one person's interpretation of them, that person being the one translating/writting/publishing it.

  9. Your saving one of those for MOAB, right??? *** If I must Found this, from a letter Hemingway wrote to a friend: "Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it." "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

  11. Dude, no offense, but you look like him (on your avatar) "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  12. Work load a little light at Perris today, uh? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  13. or even better yet, Let's send in the French. *** Uh...No, thank you. We'll pass on that one. But thanks for the thought. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  14. I can feel another Marignan in the works... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  15. You wouldn't be the guy having a beer with Lauri in the parkinglot this evening?*** Uh... That narrows it down to a few (100?) people. Can you be more specific??? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  16. Yup. The number after "August" is the number of fatalities for the month, the number at the end is the number of fatalities total for the entire yea*** Oooops (gently pushing the glass of absinthe away...!). Then, with the exception of 1999, am I on to something??? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  17. The totals you are reflecting for each "August" exceed the total for the year...??? Am I missing someting? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

  19. (Did I just say that out loud?) *** 1/ YES YOU DID (refer to email I just sent to GG!!!) 2/ I am SOOOOO going to France next month, taking pictures of anything that looks like GG on a wall (please tell me it's not in Cannes???)

  20. 1/ I am thankful for that PC in tow finally clearing up once I reached for the pillow 2/ I am NOT thankful for Skybytch new avatar (liked the previous one better) 3/ I am thankful for being in good enough health and spirit to be posting the above... Nick "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  21. Aaahhh! An adventurer you are! Absinthe has over a dozen different herbs. Going from hallucinogetic to epilectic. And then some... Most people get over focused on the thejon content. That is only part of it. It is indeed very bitter. But mixing wormwood with Everclear will not make absinthe. Not sure what it will actually create, but not absinthe. For the ultimate recipe, check with "Piisfish". He knows people who make the real thing... !N! "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  22. ...angel of the Lord struck him down, and he was eaten by worms and died I second that. And will take my chances that I'll go in the same order as PJ. "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  23. SO Greg has become to Europe what Omar is to Eloy? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  24. Ahem, he has. *** Uh...really? He should have been banned for life (at least twice) for doing it then... "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
  25. Come on, Bill. Next, you'll try to have us believe someone has jumped off a plane without a rig on...??? "For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
