Hi Bahamut! I never played diablo2 but everyone seems to think it's hard! LadyZekke is playing it too, I think.

Guess I'll have to ask Nachty to let me see what it looks like. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Ahh... the joys of hell. Fighting fire enchanted, cold enchanted, immune to physical, stone skin, extra strong, extra fast, aura enchanted, monsters is almost as fun as pulling out all of your teeth. Have fun playing through on single player!

Hey today we were having an interesting in English today. What is your purpose? You just can't ask that an instantly expect an answer! It's something that just comes to you right? Can you just suddenly decide what your purpose is? Obviously I couldn't. I have no purpose... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Hope you feel better, soon Epona! [img]smile.gif[/img] Am at work, it's cold today, but sunny! My boss is working on a project that has all her attention, her boss is in and out of the office, my co-worker is running around like a chicken on drugs and I'm plugging away at a long term project full of spreadsheets.

Ok! [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img] Coffee-slinger it is.

[img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] Would anyone happen to know the etymology of "ok"?

I would suggest either water or tea for a hangover; coffee as a "remedy" is suggested only through movies and/or tv.

At least you are still working, Cloudbringer. Some people here got pink slips yesterday. Fortunately, I was not one of those--it helps to be the best in your section like I am. (that is not bragging--it is a statement of fact [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img] )

Bungee jumping eh, LS?? I hope it works... I have three tomorrow
Oh well.
Hey BK, maybe you should have asked that DM if you could choose to be a shrubber, or to cut down the greatest tree in the forest, with.... a herring!!
Epona?? Hungover??? [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]
The great thing is that however bad the hangover we humans always seem to recover in perfect time to go down the pub again...

OK - abbreviated version of 'okay':

Meaning
Satisfactory - all correct.

Origin
Possibly the most researched phrase of them all, but with no clear evidence as to the origin. The contenders are:

• A shortened version of 'Oll Korrect'. Used by President Andrew Jackson.
• 'Old Kinderhook' - nickname of President Martin van Buren.
• 'Aux quais' - the mark put on bales of cotton in Mississippi river ports.
  
• '0 killed' - the report of the night's death toll during the First World War.
  
• 'Orl Korrect' - military reporting indicating troops were in good order.

LOL, no offence taken whatsoever! I consider it a compliment, I'd rather be tough than girlie any day![/QUOTE]You are the toughest girlie I know [img]smile.gif[/img]

Time for some down time after some serious posting and debating [img]smile.gif[/img]

Now where did I leave my wallet?
