*is old* i remember watching one of the first ever episodes with the Rocket Car!

I would've been about 15-16 or so when they first started...

I remember that episode. That was one of the better ones, imo

Wait... Trystan if you just graduated high school how can you be that old... :p-confusion:

I'd have been four when they started :s-kissface:

I'd have been about 6 or 8, I think.

You're not that much older than me Law?! Or ml for that matter.

Y'all are so much more mature than me though. And I love the way y'all talk. Mastery :f-wants:

O.o I'm not that mature. Well, more mature than dad and the dog...in that I try to keep in mind that the world doesn't revolve around me...but mom is much more mature than me.

Instead of the O.o you should just use :s-twitch: then you're not leaving it up to my imagination :s-tongue:

I know a couple of adults who are more mature than me but they're none of them family. Oh, fam :s-glare:

my Tris title isn't very accurate? XD

i actaully graduated high school in 1988. :f-hat:

Whoa...

Is your hair salt-and-pepper or earl grey?

purple.

COOL!It suits you <3

My hair is boring black. I can't dye it without dyeing my eyebrows too and skin and wearing colour contacts :P

thanks!

i've had black hair too. two of the previous times it ended with me using a color stripper and then dying it blonde... which brings out my red highlights.

however, under the purple, it's actually a pretty nice salt-n-peppery kinda color. =)

Purple looks nice :D

Haven't dyed my hair...

thanks, Law!

I had purple hair a couple times.

I like your face, Trystan. It reminds me a little bit of the face of one of my best friends.

thanks, Tam! =)

I once had dark blue hair... That was fun. It looked really pretty in the sunlight, but every other light source made it look black...

last year i had black hair again... and the grey & white that is my natural hair made it look blue in most lights. it was kinda cool once i realised that's what was going on.

I think I'll just buy Lolita wigs in all the colours I want :P Teal with pink at the ends like a gradient. And bubblegum and purple and now I REALLY WANT BLUE-BLACK I always thought that was the coolest. Especially blue-black eyes, the guy I liked had blue-black eyes :s-love:

I'm actually a goof ball, but I've had my own family mistaken me as the eldest child between me and my brother, who is 28 right now. I'm actually younger than him, but when I'm around people I'm comfortable with you get to see me be a goof. XD

It did look nice! So do those tights your Tritter's wearing.

I just finished reading Agatha Christie's 'Partners in Crime' this morning. Such a good book. Now I'm starting on one in her Tommy and Tuppence set that I haven't read before: 'N or M'. I'm told it's not the same flavour as the first two. I'm looking forward to finding out.

i just finished reading "X," the latest Kinsey Millhone novel by Sue Grafton!

...now back to Star Wars. =)

Books with number names! XD

err, kinda. Grafton uses the alphabet - A is for Alibi, B is for Burglar, C is for Corpse...

guess she couldn't figure out what X was, so she just called it X.

Janet Evanovich uses numbers - One for the Money, Two for the Dough, Three to Get Deadly....

I like how neat and respectable Agatha Christie's murders are. No yucky gore or eww violence. And I like how she makes the characters say dramatic stuff.

I've actually never read Agatha Christie's stuff... I think my mom did at one point, but I can't really remember. I'm relatively certain the tv show "Murder, She Wrote" is based off of Agatha Christie's books, iirc.

I really like Lord Edgware Dies, the ABC murders, Elephants Can Remember from the ones I've read. A lot of people like The Murder of Roger Ackroyd and Then There Were None. You should try a couple of her books! Not all are as good plot-wise but they're nice to read.

And she's written some non-mysteries too as Mary Westmacott. I really liked Giant's Bread, from those.

i'm sure i've read more stuff by Agatha Christie, and it never made much of an impact. however, the one story i did read and LOVED was And Then There Were None - it's also called Ten Little Indians, but these days that's not a very politcally correct title....

Yup, a lot of peeps love that one. I liked it too.

I read that version too I think. There was a TERRIBLY politically incorrect rhyme in there, ne?

oh yes... that was the poem that gave it the Ten Little Indians title... and also gave up most of the plot, too!

want me to paste it here?

Thanks, but nah. I remember when I read the rhyme I was put off :P

ah okies.

i looked it up to see when it was published - 1939 - and that wasn't even the original title! some of the editions *changed* it to be Ten Little Indians or Ten Little Soldiers. click at your own risk.

Ten Little Niggers?

Fuck. I know it was all those years ago but just, I don't know what to say. :s-shock:

guess in 1939 it didn't have all that bad of a connotation? dunno....

I don't mean just the word niggers. I mean the rhyme too. It's kind of disturbing. I can't imagine someone reading it out to little children no matter what the era :P

Well, the alternative has the same context - Ten Little Injuns

well, the original one, that wiki says was "called "Ten Little Injuns", was written by songwriter Septimus Winner in 1868..." is only half gory? that said, i think it was very well used in the Christie novel.

The only Christi I've read are the Tommy and Tuppence ones. I chose them because they were hard to find and all I could find was Pirote. LOL

Did you know that she wrote 'Elephants' after she had dementia?

Does anyone else (Besides Tam, 'cause I'm the one who introduced her to it) do Habitica?

The way you said you 'do' it I thought it was a habit-forming drug XP I've never heard of it, but it sounds like fun tied in with doing the stuff that's not fun and that seems cool.

Christie once also had dissociative fugue. There was a movie about it. Unless we're talking about the same thing XP
