Iceland I haven't seen anything specific about that in the guidelines but I would think it would not be allowed if it doesn't have anything to do with the discussions. If everyone wrote a joke or something and pasted it to every dicsussion they post or reply to, it...

Iceland Now your'e talking! Didn't know you were interested in football. Yes, Eggert and his team lead by Björgólfur Guðmundsson are bying West Ham. I think it might be a better investment than when Icelandic investors started buying stocks in Stoke. If...

Iceland Now this is a disucssion I couldn't resist. I had to read it and respond to it even before I read it. I agree with almost everything that others have been saying in their responses on here so maybe there's not much to add to the discussion. There is one...

Iceland Everyone lets party! We all sing "meistari jakob" in our own language :). I wonder if anyone ever translated this into Esperanto. Isasice do you have the song in Esperanto?

I was wondering what some people would come up with for a bumper sticker to describe themselves? Do you have a favorite one you have seen or one you have come up with that you wish that you could put on your vehicle.

Iceland I think people should have the right to name their kids whatever they want as long as the names aren't filthy or offensive. They have stupid rules here and don't allow people to use names that have been used here for a long time. I also don't think it's...

What are your thoughts about the new Windows Vista? Is it going to be another Windows ME or will it actually be worth its weight in gold?

5 responses

Iceland I have seen a beta version of it and I wasn't too impressed with it. Hopefully it will be ready when people start using it. ME was the worst mistake Microsoft ever made, hope this won't be similar to that.
