    Not to forget forum language rules, here's translation of two last posts:

    Me to Borg: How are you?

    Borg to me: Fine, thanks.
    or for those of us who actually speak german: (may not be entirely accurate, my german is a little rusty)

    Kari: But you are just a child, Im older than you! I am 52 in two days (Happy birthday for Friday btw Kari)
    Borg: My Uncle Dieter (think that's a name?) has sent me a birthday card:

    The/your hair is always whiter,
    and life is full of s**t

    hold on!

    I don't think that's quite right actually, but I refuse to use Google Translate on principle, I should know this.

    Quite good, Severed, if you really did that without translating tools! :)

    German 101 by a non-native speaker, here's what was said:

    Me: But you're just a kid compared to me! I'm 52 in two days.

    Borg: My uncle Dieter sent me a birthday card: "The hair will be whiter and whiter(1), the life more and more s***(2). Hold On!".
    But he still takes a drink for me.

    (1) = "Immer weißere" would literally be "always whiter", but in this context the more accurate translation is a really emphasized "whiter", which I believe could be said in English by repeating the word, "whiter and whiter"

    (2) = "immer scheißer" should for rhyming reasons be "s***ter and s***ter", but I belive it's not English so following the same reasoning as in (1), I would translate it "more and more s***".

    Probably he use Bing Translator to translate. I prefer google or my dictionnary. It's difficult to learn the other luguage but it's cool to speak 1, 2 or 3 langues.
    So goodnight because he is 1h41min of norning.

    Was looking up a suitably bloodthirsty nick for a wargame profile back in the mid 90s, but it also had to be uncommon, hence this nick.

    It's my last name with 30. It is a name a friend picked for me in 2001 or thereabouts for my very first email addy. The 30 was completely random and has no signifigance

    Hi! Sreedhav is a name and only four are to be found on planet Earth! Here in Andhra Pradesh we have a peculiar custom of writing the child's name on a plate of uncooked rice,usually on the Eleventh day after birth! Dads write it and my dad wrote as "SREEnivasa Siva MaDHAV Sharma" in our native language"Telugu",also known as the ITALAIAN of the East!

    My uncle (dad's brother) rubbished it all and being a poet himself took the first four letters SREE and the last four letters of maDHAV (in bold type) and married them both ,omitting the Sharma, as sharmas are Brahmins(the highest class among the population) and intellectuals and are a bit discriminated against in our state!

    Thus Sree-dhav--->> SREEDHAV was born on the First of September 1961! It has a meaning and denotes he who carries the goddess of wealth on his chest:)! Sorry for the bold types!
    Regards,
    Sreedhav:)

    I kinda got mine From a game, it was Final Fantasy : Tactics Advanced. It was for the Gameboy Advanced, i got it from the one of the games Races. The Viera, an all female race with rabbit ears. One of the classes available to the Viera, is the Sniper Class. Kinda like the archer but with killer Stats and Special Shots and Combos. Viera+Sniper= Vierasniper. Geeky i know, but im just a hardcore fan hahaha
