no, I am patient and quite serene most of the time. It takes an aweful lot to make me blow my cool
when was the last time some body really upset you?

when was the last time some body really upset you?
Yes. But, to an extent I have learned to keep it under control.
When was the last time you really lost yours?
This morning. Two times.
When was the last time you were really drunk?

I'm not comfortable with people who drink too much, otherwise the level of alcohool in expired air is not an index in judging people. I think that people should drink a glass or two but they need to stop when they start to talk rubbish and behave like idiots. In my country a lot of women use to drink ( me included, without getting drunk, just to become more cheerful and to untie my tongue ) but the rest who are abstinent are very judgemental on them. In the past on different ocasions we used to celebrate at work with drinks and I used to have a glass of something until I noticed that a colleague called "drunken" a girl who did the same thing. Anyway, Steve and Mark helped me forget the old stereotype about brittish guys who drinks like pigs and are mad for football. That's why I like this forum.....:p
What are you wearing now?
( asked before but meanwhile I suppose you've changed your clothes :p )
A blue shirt and dark gray jeans..
What about you?
If I had known I have to say this on the forum I should have worn something special......:p
So:
Yessica black skirt with white and grey flower print
Clockhouse bright blue t-shirt with a rather trivial print ( "calories are my friends" :laugh: )
Antilopa Black sandals
Hematite necklace and earrings
Oxette-Loisire watch
To add a bit of class to this rather cheap outfit I wear brown metalic eyeglasses from Sophia Loren's collection.
:laugh:
What had/have/will have ( depending of the local time of the person below ) you for lunch today?
I will have a ham & cheese sandwich and either a soda (coke) or a glass of orange juice.
Do you have a pet and what is it (strange people don't count)?
Don't have my own pet but my neighbour's cat spends all the time at my door, window or terrace.
What's the most exotic place you ever visited?
Define exotic. The whole bloody country is like most people's definition of exotic :eek:
A place that is far away and is impressing due to unusual and strange aspects. Could your country be far away ( although it's very big) and strange to you?
Example: Just heared that a sort of cousin of mine is on a trip to India
I dunno. I’ve been to a few “far away” places but each was unusual and strange in their own way.
Do you consider graffiti art?
yes. in it's own way. Something which takes a lot of skill as well as creativity is art for me. (though I may not like that art form) Music > All though :p:
What is your favourite art form?
gadjo: plenty of places are FAR away from my city - the furthest I have been within my own country is more than 2200+kms!! (Sikkim) and yes some of those parts were pretty strange. Since most regions have their own food, culture, language and traditions they all are pretty exotic when I visit them for the first time.
your sort of cousin is in which part of India? the usual touristy bits?
I have no clue. I talked to her mother who's the annoying type of woman who praised herself and her family. She knows I'm in big trouble and with my nerves down but kept talking about their wonderful trips around the world. So I tried to end the conversation very quickly. I had my own period of fascination about India and I'm always fighting my coworkers wrong opinions. I mean they see only the poverty side of the country and the place where our gypsies came from.
My fav form of art is cinematography. How lame....I read a lot about the movies and artists and tried to see the best art movies.
Can you dance traditional/folkloric dances? :p
HELL NO!!
Should I?
Yes. :p
Do you like to gamble?
Not really. I'll have a token bet on the Grand National and buy a lottery ticket most weeks and that's it.
I think we've probably had this one before but I can't think of another. What place would you like to visit, and why?
1. Machu Picchu - it's beautiful and full of mistery. It's my life dream.
2. The birthtowns of my parents in northern Greece. For a return to the roots.
Where will you spend this summer/winter holiday?
Holidays planned:
Next week: http://parksandrecreation.idaho.gov/parks/priest-lake
First week of August: http://www.christinalake.com/
First weekend of September: http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/pn-np/bc/kootenay/index.aspx
Oct. 11th to 13th: http://www.grizzlyevents.ca/grizzly-...n---relay.html :uhoh: :erm:
Well, you asked :mark:
What holiday plans do you have?
Priest Lake is very nice. While there you should also go to Spirit Lake and Coeur d'Alene if you haven't been there before. Lots of craft brew available in the area also. Strongly recommend Moose Lodge for dinner outside of Coeur d'Alene.Quote:

And your Q is........?
What is the fastest you have ever driven on a public road?Quote:

Yes..back in college - the car toppled into a gutter on the left side of the road. A broken window and some very minor bruises. After that I never got in a car with people who smoked/drank and drove.
I do not drive if I'm out drinking..max is a beer or two if I must.
feel like a beer right now though, do you have any in the fridge? (I hope a Labatt's or Molson :D, still remember those from so many years ago)
Bad news Storm! :D
No I dont I am afraid.
Have you ever been to a International Sport Fixture? (Of any sport between two nations)
Never.
I should have caught the beer question. Have a case each of Heavy Seas Loose Cannon (hop 3 IPA), Trogg's Trogenator (dopplebock), Heavy Seas Cutlass (amber ale) and Harpoon UFO White (wheat beer with coriander & orange). Stop on by, I'm always willing to share.
If you had to pick one, and only one, car to keep forever what would it be?
This beauty was my dad's family first car. Wish it still stayed in our garage.:p
Otherwise I'd like a Wyllis Jeep.
Are there any cameras watching you at your work place?
An ocean theme there...Quote:

who knows maybe someday I will stop by for that :beer:
Yes, those are craft beers. Though Heavy Seas is getting pretty big with decent distribution these days, not nearly as big as something like Sam Adams though. They used to be known as Clipper City and are in Baltimore. Troegs is in Hershey, PA and Harpoon has facilities in Boston and Windsor, VT.Quote:

Can you sew or stitch?
A button by hand - yes. Only in emergencies though..
We actually even have a portable sewing machine which nobody uses :erm:
What OS are you using (if you are on a desk/laptop?)
Thx to Storm who was quicker that I had to delete my answer to the previous Q. I made a fool of myself. :p
Also too dumb the answer the current Q. Anyway now I'm at home using a tablet. :s
which is most likely running Android (or iOS if its an iPad)
Yes, I know it's Android but I have no clue about the computer at work. I'll get a new one anyway next week. :p
Can you describe your personna in just 3 words?
Cantankerous old git!
How often do you get a new computer at work?
It's austherity so I can't remember when was the last time when computers were bought for all the employees. In my office we need some better ones for an application so about 5 years ago we received other PC's but they were second hand. Then last year my computer crashed and I needed a new one. But these days all people will get new ones.
When was the last time you had a barbecue?
May 31st. I remember the exact date as it was the football team I play for's end of season BBQ.
What's your favourite thing to eat off a BBQ?

What are your plans for the weekend?
Saturday: visit mother-in-law :o, Sunday: watch a football match
Do you do any gardening?
Perfect Question for me, I do lots of Gardening. I am always out in my Garden and if I do say so myself Its a very nice Garden.Quote:
