Imagine -------------------------------- Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road. Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go. So make the best of this test, and don't ask why. It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time. It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right. I hope you had the time of your life. So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind. Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time. Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial. For what it's worth, it was worth all the while. -Green Day --> Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) -------------------------------------- "If I had a rocket launcher some son of a bitch would die." -Bruce Cockburn --> If I had a rocket launcher That was the last line of the song. the song is about the horrible treatment inflicted by the government of civilians in Central America around 1984.

(Graff) There was no doubt in Ender's mind. There was no help for him. Whatever he faced, now and forever, no one would save him from it. Peter might be scum, but Peter had been right, always right; the power to cause pain is the only power that matters, the power to kill and destroy, because if you can't kill you are always subject to those who can, and nothing no one will ever save you. "Human beings didn't evolve brains in order to lie around on lakes. Killing is the first thing we learned. And a good thing we did, or we'd be dead, and the tigers would rule the earth." (Valentine) "There is no teacher but the enemy." (Mazer Rackham) "Welcome to the human race. Nobody controls his own life, Ender. The best you can do is choose to be controlled by good people, by people who love you." (Valentine) ----------------------------------- Paul Sun Feb 22, 2004 2:10 pm ----------------------------------- Who was mazer again? that hero guy? ----------------------------------- shorthair Sun Feb 22, 2004 2:12 pm ----------------------------------- ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US ----------------------------------- Maverick Sun Feb 22, 2004 2:16 pm ----------------------------------- "Someone Set Us Up The Bomb" "Argueing Over The Internet is like the special olympics, even if you win your still retarded"-(Everyone who has ever used the internet) ----------------------------------- Martin Sun Feb 22, 2004 2:27 pm ----------------------------------- "What the fuck is wtf?!?!?!" ----------------------------------- jonos Sun Feb 22, 2004 7:09 pm ----------------------------------- "the use of 'lol' is like the use of a dog for a bed mate." -yours truly ----------------------------------- Delos Sun Feb 22, 2004 9:02 pm ----------------------------------- "Oro" - Kenshin Himura (1849-?)
