Revenwyn I heard that in Chinese, 9 is the number that corresponds to "forever". Next year will have much the same show, as 10 is the number that corresponds to "perfect"

Would you give a knife as a gift?

Just an Ordinary Owl? @owlwings (43910) • Cambridge, England 13 Sep 09

My mother used to say that giving a knife as a gift was bad luck unless the recipient "bought" the knife from the giver with a small coin. If you didn't do this, the knife would cut off the relationship between the two people in...

Revenwyn I wouldn't give a knife as a gift. I'd give a full sized sword. :P My fiance and I would both like to become sword collectors, and I would like to give him a claidhmore as a wedding gift. :)

Revenwyn Let's just say I wouldn't be in that situation anyway. Personally, if there's any chance at ALL of something like that taking place, then you shouldn't be attending the function with your spouse. Case closed.

Revenwyn 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all...

Revenwyn It doesn't quite work for me since I'm bigger than my fiance. *shakes head* But I've done it once, but it was a button down and he discarded it while he was playing volleyball. I just pulled it over the shirt I was wearing even though I couldn't button it.

Which would you prefer... No electricity for 3 days or no water for 3 days?

laydee @laydee (12798) • Philippines 11 Sep 09

Let's just say some major upgrade needs to be done in the city, so you have time to store up water or electricity (for those who have generators and such). There's going to be a choice of which to sacrifice. Would you rather have...

Revenwyn I would choose no water. In preparation, I would fill up buckets and buckets of water, both bath tubs, and use that to force-flush the toilets if necessary. Drinking water could be bought, and so could juices, etc. You can cook steaks and stuff and eat that...

Revenwyn I think it might depend on what kind of girl it is who you want to propose to. I personally don't wear much jewelry. If she's the kind of girl who does, take a look at the kind she wears and see if you can find a ring that fits within that general style....
