In the Netherlands we measure temperture in Celsius. Other countries use Fahrenheit. We use decimal system. Kilometers instead of miles. etc. This is an international community. So to know what is said in the system you use, here is an link, which might comes in handy: www.metric-conversions.org/site-map.htm

If you love the fairy tales as much as I do, you enjoy this site: www.fln.vcu.edu//menu.htmlIt also comes in handy to learn German language with the World Cup coming up.

This is hilarious :- www.freaknfunny.com/files/upload/draw-a-pig.swf Let's see your drawings and post your results. mine were: 1) I am a realist (true) 2) I don't have a strong sense of family and don't remember dates (erm.... I forgot my mum's birthday today!!) 3) I am analytical, cautious and distrustful (true) 4) I am secure (nope) stubborn (no comment) and stick to my ideals (whatever they are!) 5) I am a good listener (But can also turn off at the right moments, c'mon guys, you know what I mean) 6) I have a poor sex life (definately no comment) Ok, who's next? And here's my erm... pig. It is, honest! BTW, if anyone is unsure how to add their pictures, see this thread mahjongtowers.proboards56.com/index.cgi?board=askaway&action=display&thread=1148524947&page=1

(miss Piggy is I am certainly not) 4. you don't listen ( what was that I didn't hear you ) lol I listen omg this test is getting funnier!!! 5. You have no sex life.

This drawing makes me: - a realist. - direct, enjoying playing devil's advocate and neither fear nor avoid discussions. - emotional and naive, caring little for details and a risk-taker. - insecure or living through a period of major change. - a good listener with a good sex life.

Downloaded Google Earth today at: earth.google.com/index.htmlIt's free and fun. You can look up where your friends live now. Get loads of information about cities and villages. Not all is as detailed. The place I live is rather blurry, zooming in. Liverpool looks great.

This one might look as a language translation site and it is, but at the left it offers you far more interesting stuff. I think this one is worth to check out: www.translation.langenberg.com/
