i really hate microsoft for what they’re trying to do here. > Microsoft’s own scripting efforts are regarded as relatively inferior to the cross-platform Flash, which now supports XML, Unicode, MP3 and HTML and which was taken closer towards Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) in 2002. The Flash Player, meanwhile, is compatible with most browsers and used on nearly 90% of desktops. if they can’t get their way, they just pay for it. the world not enough, gates? ---

No more that there is a consperacy to keep ppl drinking all day. lol acutaly i can’t even drink one beer a day. I’m alergic to it so i would come off mighty sick. I drink rye and coke and that is pretty much it. Oh and i do enjoy a ceaser form time to time but unless you are Canadian you might not know what that is. ---

oh man that sucks that you can’t drink alcoholic beverages…not that it’s a good thing or anything…:whistle: i used to get rashes from drinking a quarter of a beer, which was pathetic. this happened because my parents rarely _ever_ drank so i didn’t get/inherit an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase, which basically breaks down the alcohol into acetate. so the alcohol basically remains in the blood. if you heard of the term “asian glow”, that’s what this is referring to. some asians tend to become red when they drink. i however, had this situation. so i built up my own tolerance. now i need at least 2 beers to become slightly red. the funny thing is liquor doesn’t make me turn red, though it has a higher concentration of alcohol. ---
