    So, I was looking at this magazine on my boss's desk and it had these cards called conversation starters for sale in it. I guess it was kinda like a game. Anyway, the question on the card that it showed was:

    If you could only have one thing for Dinner for the rest of your life what would it be?


    I have been thinking about this for a while now and I'm pretty sure it would be macaroni and cheese. How about y'all? 😀

    hmmm.....I think it would have to be steak fajitas for me.
  3. #3
    Pizza
  4. #4
    Ramen..not that I like it all that much, but its cheap, easy to make and filling...what I like..um...hotdogs..can be made in so many ways
  5. #5
    Pizza.. has all 3 food groups, and can made soooo many diff ways.

    Although Mac and Cheese is a very close 2nd, I would have to go with Mashed Potatoes. Mmmmmmm.....

    I can see it now the GRB Thanksgiving table.

    Pizza, Smashed taters, Mac&Cheese, Hot dogs, Top Ramen, Fajitas...... Where are the I think beer is bread crowd? We need something to drink.... Oh wait, Hymen hasn't showed up yet.

    I agree with Ramen. And there's alot you can do with it. Hot spicy Shin ramen with chicken and cheese and an egg on top. I think I need to make a trip back to Korea. 🙂

    Hmmm...I was thinking a single item, but if there was one meal that I had to eat every day, It would be THanksgiving dinner 😄 Of course I would then be a giant, fat, sleepy Sarge 😄

    ok, next question:

    What's one place you haven't traveled to yet that you really want to go?


    For me this would be Scotland. I would love to see all the beautiful old castles and just a place that is completely green. 🙂
  17. #17
    This is really tough.

    Probably Italy and Greece. My family is from southern Italy/Sicily, so I would love to visit where they came from. The Greek and Roman architecture is a real draw for me as well.

  18. #18
    I will assume you meant one thing to eat, that is more interesting.
    Oh man..that is hard but I would say potatoes as you can make them a ton of different ways. Corn would be next.


    As for vacation, I have a fantasy trip of going on a castle tour of England, Ireland, Scotland and Whales.
    or just visiting the places normally. I LOVE castles. I am into he whole medieval thing 😉

    Even just going to England would be awesome. Other than that Japan would be cool.

    Ah, near Austin. I live about 6hrs to the west in Midland. 😀

    I havent been westward yet but we plan on it. I've been stuck in Germany/ Iraq for the last four years and cant wait to get to the states.

    Jesus, you live out in the middle of nowhere! I assumed you lived down I35, or east of there, like most ppl in Texas.

    IIRC, your area has cell phone coverage, but I guess if you travel a little ways in any direction, that disappears pretty fast. . .or do they have I20 covered by cell towers now?

    P1020858.JPGHere ya go Paladin.
    P1020891.JPGFor the beer drinkers out there, here ya go.

    Those are great pictures. That is a beautiful castle.
    There's really not much to see in west Texas, just mesquite and dirt. So you haven't missed much. 😀

    When I worked for Cingular a couple of years ago they bought ATT wireless, so the coverage ALONG I-20 is good now. Head north or south of it though and you are SOL... 🙁

    Heh, I worked for ATT Wireless when they were bought by Cingular. . .actually, for a company that did phone support for ATT wireless. What department did you work in?

    Oh man Mike those are so cool!!!!! I REALLY have no life 😉
    I want more 😉

    GUINNESS!!!!!!!!!! Only the best beer ever made!!!! 😉
    I would be doing the "I'm not worthy" bow in front of that place.

    Sindy, or anyone really, if you like water and green scenes here is a link to some AWSOME background pictures. http://www.lakedistrictdesktops.com/
    I really LOVE nature, woods etc.. I also love water in most forms; lakes, oceans, even some rivers. I won't go IN the water but LOVE being near it or on it on a boat 😉
    Even got married next to the River 😉

    Atomm, can you give Mikey Battalion Talk access if he does not have it?

    ok, lots of things to say here so:

    Doc: I worked in the Credit/Fraud Dept. at the time we only handled CA, NV and WA. Then they merged some stuff and we got all the area around the Great Lakes and some east coast stuff too. That was an interesting job... you wouldn't believe how many people try to fraudulently get cell phones.


    Those are cool desktops, this is the one I have on my work computer right now. I wish I could be there...

    It's funny, but I kind of have an AT&T connection myself. I was a manager for Tech Support of an ISP. The owners sold the customers to Earthlink and we all lost our jobs. About 60% of our folks went to work in the AT&T Call Center in Oklahoma City.

    Strange world.
  32. #32
    6Deg of AT&T seperation or what ever the frelling Kevin Bacon deal was.
  33. #33
    AT&T bought out cingular who is my mothers wireless carrier, but my mother gave my wife and I one of her phones. So, in a strange way Atomm and I might be brothers.

    I like pie.

    OK, next question!

    If you could be any animal in the world, what would you be?

    I would be a cat (of course). They so have it made, lay around, sleep, look cute.... 😀
  38. #38
    I would have to say a Jaguar. They are on the top of the food chain, look really cool, can run fairly fast and climb trees. Sounds like fun to me....

  39. #39
    It would have to be a Polar Bear. You know the Polar Bear is the fiercest killer in the animal kingdom.

    😉
  40. #40
    But they have to live in the cold tundra..... I'll take the warm jungle any day.... 😛

  41. #41
    Bird of prey, eagle or a falcon.
  42. #42
    At least the tundra doesn't have any giant poisonous snakes (shudders).


    I think I would have to be one of my dogs. I could then be spoiled rotten, sleep all day on the bed if I want to, and chase critters in the back yard when I wasn't sleeping.

    Yea sure Doc, but if you are a male black widow, you are 1/10th the size of your woman and you get to have sex once, then be eaten. Doesn't sound fun to me.... 😛

    suhweet!

    Amsterdam does sound like a pretty cool place.

    I think that I would head to Australia & New Zealand myself but I don't know for sure - there are just too many places to try and visit.
  51. #51
    I haven't heard of there, but I don't get out much 🙁 I googled it but I keep gettin foreign wikis.


    Off to the English wiki for me to find a possible new vacation spot


    I see now, it is a creature - an Arctic species of cetacean with a body similar to that of a Beluga whale and Irrawaddy Dolphin.

    In Inuit legend, the narwhal was created when a woman holding onto a harpoon had been pulled into the ocean and twisted around the harpoon. The submerged woman was wrapped around a beluga whale on the other end of the harpoon, and that is how the narwhal was created.

    Snazzy....but my sayain powers will rule you all!!

    I soooo want a tail. Or wings - I'd settle for wings
  52. #52
    I didn't realize a narwhal was a chick. I'm changing mine..

    you want wings
  53. #53
    Maybe this evening if I remeber I'll take a screenie of my acrcher on my mmo - she's freakin hot! (well for the game shes hot) I could have gotten new armor like 5 levels ago but I refuse to give up my wings.

    ok, something new!!

    Brithday Calculator

    This gives you a page of info about when you were born, and astrological signs and stuff. 😀

    One thing it does it estimate when you were conceived. It estimated that I was conceived on Jan. 25th. My birthday is Oct 17th, and my fathers birthday was Jan. 17th. SOOOOOOO, my mother had always told me that I was an extra birthday present! I think it might be off on that date. 😄

    Plus here pretty soon I will be posting my birthday list, so you will all have plenty of time for shipping your fantastic gifts to me. 😄

    P.S. I also accept just plain old cash if you just can't think of anything wonderful to send. 😛

    How about a stroll across the beaches of Gulf of Oman or a nice buggy ride though the mountains of Fushe Pass? You decide it's your birthday.

    I've heard that there's a great hotel near the beach in Sharqui 😉

    The problem for the conceived part being wrong for me is I was 2 months premature. I was only 4 lbs-2 oz. I came out small, early, feet first and not cooked all the way! See I started of weird! 😉

    I should have been a Christmas baby but instead was an Oct 22nd one. 😉

    So with all this astrological stuff, which is all BS to me anyway, I can never know what to believe etc...
  62. #62
    Gosh.. all those birthday ideas and not even one mention of diamonds or cash. 😄

    And paladin the way I look at it, the rest of us just were not brave enough to say screw this! I want out of here, it's dark, cramped and just what is that smell? 😄 You must have been born early because you're a leader, setting an example. 😀

    And yeah, all the astrological stuff is BS, but sometimes it can be kinda scary. I was more interested in the factual stuff it had on there anyway.

  63. #63
    But how can it be BS when it comes from such reliable and scholarly sources?
