I tried to spike a watermalon with ouzo during my vacation. I don't quite know what I did wrong - the damn melon just refused to soak. Physics may have played its sneaky part, if I had a way I'd have drilled a hole at the bottom of the bottle as well. What happened is I had to lift the bottle every ...

wow, that was fast. Thanks. :D

... but also tell me: what is a fifth 20% of?


Thanks in advance.

I think most tattoos just clash with traditional wedding gowns. If that is the case, I'm in favour of artful concealment. If, on the other hand, you are pleased with the aesthetic effect of gown + ink, don't hide it. You didn't care about your mother when you had the tattoos done, why should you now...

Um, I'm Penelope and I have a foreign accent... but I never did anything with Tom. Honestly.



(to make matters more complicated there's Nicole's body in my avie and at some point in the past people told me I looked a bit like Kate)

Don't plan on having kids, please, because that would ruin a friggin awesome tat! Stretch marks in a tat are horrible... Too late... I hope the vitE will help, TG.

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty place from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time: And all our yesterdays, have lighted fools The way to dusty death.

Useless trivia: Greeks tend to pronounce all "a"s as "uh"s because that's the sound of the same letter in the greek alphabet, so an Irish friend of mine was nearly apoplectic with my Greek flatmates throwing "I cunt understand what you mean" right and left in blissful ignorance (welll... at least at...

And one more... Subject: Failed Upgrade Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 and noticed that the new program began unexpedted child processing that took up a lot of space and valuable resources. No mention of this phenomenon was included in the product brochure. In addition, Wife 1....

Jesus, man, do you use the bathroom standing on your hands?!

I'm not entirely negative about retsina, I like it well enough, but you have to try to find a good one. I absolutely agree on the subject of Ios, my favourite island of those I've been to (with Santorini a close second). It is not accidental that one of the most popular T-shirts sold there reads "Th...

Oh, and: - make no jokes about the "Greek Way" - people would be first puzzled, then insulted. - most Greeks (especially young people) speak English, in varying degrees of competence. Some are self-conscious, though, and hesitate to do so. - tips are usually included in the bill. That means a) don't...

So on Wednesday I leave for three weeks on a study abroad program of Greek History. Being a business student, I plan to be neck-deep in the sauce the entire time. Anybody know anything about boozing in Greece? Good bars? Cheap booze? Good cheap booze? I'm aparently gunna be all over the place so ev...

I voted expensive, but then I have only bought one pair in my life (5 years ago), which I still wear.
