boy, that must be some hypnotist to hypnotise all those tortoises. Wonder if they now think they're human?

There's a kid called Timo on our swim team, I suspect you're not him either. he never speaks. And it's his given name.

Timo · 02-27-2008, 04:08 AM

wow I had no idea there were so many Timo's.
When i googled it all I found was a jazz musician.
Then again... how are these Timo's pronounced? I say mine Tim-O,
but on xbox live its always pronounced by people as "Teem-O"

Timo.

here is you heart burn, fallen awake at 5am, headache, toothache, waiting for the advil and glass of soymilk to take effect, gotta get up for real at 8 am 300mph outpour blues quizzo:

1. have you ever been arrested?

2. Do you like ketchup or mustard on your hot dog?

3. Is England America's bitch?

4. How many fingers am I holding up?

5. Would you like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony?

6. What color is the number 3?

7. Boxers or briefs?

eight. Do you know the square root of 81?

IX. Just who the hell do you think you are?

10. Led Zeppelin or the Beatles?

Timo · 02-27-2008, 05:56 AM

ok Lumberjim, i'm not 100% sure what you're taking about

:p was I supposed to do this once i woke up at 8am? i'ts not so far off... it's about 11.30 and I woke up at 8.14 and I feel a little dizzy and a bit grumpy. (im on British time and I didnt bother to change my account settings....)

but i'll do your quiz anyway!

1. have you ever been arrested?
- no, but I have been cautioned and questioned for being in a playground at 11am on a tuesday... they thought we were ne'er do wells,

2. Do you like ketchup or mustard on your hot dog?
ketchup, mustard frightens me,

3. Is England America's bitch?
uhm, I guess we are... we're so affected by America, I'm not big of my polotics but as far as entertainment and technology goes... Americas in charge!
Redcoats and Yanks. =[

4. How many fingers am I holding up?
seven. ish.

5. Would you like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony?
not really, you know there'd be some sticks in the mud who just wouldnt cooperate. I'd probrably get shivved.

6. What color is the number 3?
im thinking and it's between blue and green but it isnt turquoise, or teal,

7. Boxers or briefs?
I hate when you but boxers on... and you pull up your jeans, and the boxers bunch up because they're too big... but then again if anybody finds out you're wearing breifs you become a total pariah, its a tricky one. I'd go with boxers though, the physical limitations of breifs are quite troublesome,

eight. Do you know the square root of 81?
9, of course. B in GCSE maths

IX. Just who the hell do you think you are?
I'm pretty sure I'm decended from vikings...
Irish bithparents... decended from vikings I think...
i'm pretty sure anyway,

10. Led Zeppelin or the Beatles?
oh Zeppelin everytime, although I couldnt believe 'Thats the Way' didnt end up on 'Mothership'
poor show, poor show.

lumberjim · 02-27-2008, 06:15 AM

excellent. 9 out of 10.

There are some who call me.....Timo?

Greetings, Timo the enchanter

Timo · 02-27-2008, 07:33 AM

9/10?
Beetles fan?

that is easily the greatest video I have ever laid eyes on.
I have been known to enchant from time to time..

Our tortoise is in a cardboard box in my closet right now, where he has been since November. Every couple of weeks, we open it, and touch his foot to make sure he is still alive

Sounds like a low maintainance pet -

Timo · 02-27-2008, 07:45 AM

when I was a kid I found an old paintbrush at the beach, I kept it for like a year... THAt was a low maintanence pet for sure,

oh and Binky, you put food in there right?

binky · 02-27-2008, 07:48 AM

No food actually, they don't eat while hibernating(VERY low maintenance) but they go on a hell of a binge when they wake up

Timo · 02-27-2008, 07:55 AM

wow, thats amazing,
do you know the science behind staying alive so long without food? even if all they do is sleep?
