Wouldn't it be more so if you had a drink in your hand?

Post by **rip8fan1** » Mon Jun 29, 2009 2:15 pm

Is that drink a diet Pepsi?

Shouldn't it be whatever drink you enjoy?

Whic drink would you particularly enjoy (if that is not too personal)

Are we allowed to drink while we are on the board?

Doesn't it make all the posts that much more funny when you do?

You can even swim *in* the drink. Who's to stop you?

Who's whackier than the Japanese? (excluding myself of course)

Post by **rip8fan1** » Thu Jul 02, 2009 11:32 am

What makes the Japanese more whackier than any other nationality?

Don't they have some pretty wacky game shows?

How much do you know about those game shows?

gpackin · Post by **gpackin** » Fri Jul 03, 2009 12:24 pm

Can't you find them on youtube?

Are there any with me starring in them?

gpackin · Post by **gpackin** » Fri Jul 03, 2009 12:35 pm

Have you been on any?

Post by **rip8fan1** » Fri Jul 03, 2009 7:57 pm

Why would you be on any?

What could be better than a hometown parade, a cookout and no rain on Independence Day [and my 200th post - small pleasures well timed]?

Apparently July is a favorite month for uprisings, revolutions, battles, foundings, declarations of independence and other alleged love parades.

Off the top of my head I could already name 4 national holidays in July (below marked with *). But the Wikipedia reveals a lot more of them.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ho ... by_country

1 - Canada Day
1 - CPC Founding Day, People's Republic of China
1 - Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Establishment Day
1 - British Virgin Islands Territory Day
4* - USA Independence Day
6 - Lithuania Mindaugas' Coronation Day - The Day of State
9 - Anniversary of the Argentine Declaration of Independence
10 - The Bahamas Independence Day
11* - Belgium's Flemish Community Holiday that commemorates the bloody Battle of the Golden Spurs in 1302 to oust the French overlords, which was also the first attempt towards Flemish sovereignty, finally achieved in 1970 (rather late but not for lack of trying)
14* - France National Day (= Bastille Day), commonly named "le 14 Juillet"
15 - Australian National Day
18 - Uruguay Constitution Day
20 - Colombia Independence Day
21* - Belgium National holiday (21 July 1831, Leopold I proclaims his oath to uphold the Belgian Constitution)
23 - Egypt Revolution Day
28 & 29 - Peru Independence Day (do they need an extra day to recover from a hangover?)

Anyone know any more?

Off the top of our heads or can we use a source?

voralfred · Post by **voralfred** » Thu Jul 09, 2009 12:20 am

Could you find any other one off the top of your head?

Where did the expression 'off the top of your head' come from?

gpackin · Post by **gpackin** » Thu Jul 09, 2009 11:23 am

Did it come off the top of somebody's head?

Why are you all talking about somebody else's head?
Didn't I say it's "off the top of *my* head"?

sweetharleygirl · Post by **sweetharleygirl** » Thu Jul 09, 2009 11:37 am

Does it matter if it was off the top of your head or someone elses head?
