ANOTHER YEAR...

Acording to the Chinese zodiac you where born in the year of the water ox:

Quote :

People born in the Year of the Ox are patient, speak little, and inspire confidence in others. They tend, however, to be eccentric, and bigoted, and they anger easily. They have fierce tempers and although they speak little, when they do they are quite eloquent. Ox people are mentally and physically alert. Generally easy-going, they can be remarkably stubborn, and they hate to fail or be opposed. They are most compatible with Snake, Rooster, and Rat people.

In Chinese Taoist thought, water is representative of intelligence and wisdom, flexibility, softness and pliancy; however, an over-abundance of the element is said to cause difficulty in choosing something and sticking to it. In the same way, Water can be fluid and weak, but can also wield great power when it floods and overwhelms the land. Water governs the Kidney and Urinary bladder and is associated with the ears and bones. The negative emotion associated with water is fear/anxiety, while the positive emotion is calmness.

Well, yeah, shows you what they know; patient, speak little and eloquent, HA! :p

According to other mystical...stuff:
Your gemstone is the Ruby
Your flowers are Sunflower, Marigold, Celandine and the Passion Flower
Your colors are Golds, Yellows and Hues of the Sun

If your hair were never cut since 7.August.1973, it would be 5.538 m. today
If your nails were never cut since 7.August.1973, they would be 1.374 m. today
An apple tree seeded on 7.August.1973, bore 3,374.767 kg. apple till today.


Hope you have a good one!

HAHAH! Thanks guys! That was great! I'm 38... and I look like I'm a respectable 38, since all my plastic toy soldiers are boxed in. But once I can unpack them, I will look (once more) as a creepy 38 years old man!

Thanks for the note... it was great to read it!

THIRTY-EIGHT! That means you are bordering on your midlife crisis! YES! So where's the bike? Where's the GIRLFRIEND?!

Congrats mate. Now the most important question: WHAT DID YOU GET?!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Mordheimer!

You truely deserve some cakes and a present:







Hope you have a good day with friends, family and loved ones

Hahaha! Thanks guys.

I got to sleep late... until 7:50am. YEAH BABY!

I got kisses from my baby girl. You have no idea how HARD that was... she is on a stage that she would not kiss anyone. So it was a good trick!

I got a couple of FISH. My eldest daughter wanted to get me fish... so she got me a couple of balloon-bellied Mollies.

I got a phone call from my mother, my cousin, my aunt... and DOZER! Holy cow... THAT was a surprise! Hahaha! The man is super busy lately.

I got to cook some pork chops and made sandwiches. YUM!

I may break my kids piggy-bank (literally) to get some money and go to see the last Harry Potter movie with one of them.

No toys... maybe next year.

Happy birthday!

Thanks!

Completely missed out your birthday because I was on an Internetless isle...
(Ameland for the dutchies here)
Nonetheless I hope you a good bday!
I see you got a new avatar, whose present was that?
And did you went to see HP7-2? Have to see it too, saw part 1 last week...

Hahaha! Arachas insisted I gave Sam a rest and Prius was cool enough to make the new Avatars for the guys. Mine is an Arbites... a reminder that I need to work hard to finish them for Lord Greywolf's approval.

Yeap... not bad. I won't see it a 2nd time, but since I went with my daughter, it became a little more special. We both have the same sense of humor, so we kept messing with strangers around the theater. HA! We were quiet during the movie. I promise!

Sounds good! Looking forward to the day that I'll be able to go to the movies with my little girl!
But it'd better go not to fast because she's growing up so fast already!

I'm a little bit late - but HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I've had no computer access (I couldn't even pay for food with a credit card in a restaurant where I was! - scarily backward!).

One year older, one year wiser!

Two quotes for you (well one for you and one for your wife!)...

Ralph Waldo Emerson...
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.
(I try to live by that one!)

Charlotte Whitton...
Whatever women do they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good. Luckily this is not difficult.

Cheers Laney

I will do my best to follow the advise. Thanks!

I told her... made a dramatic pause after the 1st sentence. She rolled her eyes in despair. I uttered the 2nd sentence and she laughed in agreement. HAHAHAH! In her case, even easier! HAHAH! THANKS!
