| well princes are a bit stereotyped aren't they - why should they be spending all their time rescuing damsels, eh? Surely its time they got to have a bit of fun with the boys.
what's your least favourite fairytale? |

| Snow White. The 'prince charming' fell in love with a woman who, for all he knew, was DEAD. He proceeds to carry her of to his castle, but what is he going to do with her? Hang her on the wall? Use her as a statue?
Doesn't anyone else find this creepy?

| I prefer cats, though they don't live indoors at our house.
What's the temperature where you live? Do you have rain, snow, sun?
(Here it is about 54 degrees [11 C])

| Same here. Low fifties to high forties. All it does is rain, rain, rain. Cold rain. *sigh* Spring oh Spring, where are you? I want to live in warm, dry egypt 
My family saw A Midsummer's Night Dream today. It was so GOOD! People's light theater does excellent performances, but this is one of their best. Even my six y.o. sister enjoyed it, though she couldn't follow the dialogue. Puck scared her half to death creeping down the aisle, though, while she was standing there trying to see the action on stage.  What's your favorite Shakespearian play?

Why does putting something in Latin make it look more intelligent? |

| Because it's a dead language.
Why won't my Latin teacher concede that Latin is dead? | |

Having just read through the "THE how to get a girl thread" it seems most people seem to think the best way of winning another persons heart is by humour, or is that just a bad joke..? Sorry, I'm feeling a little depressed today... :'-(

[/color] | I don't know. I would nominate 'having great warehouses full of money' for that honor, myself.
I mean, it's just as easy to fall in love with a rich man as a poor one, right? | |

So why...oh, never mind... 
...what about poor women, do you think anyone could fall in love with them too..?

Why does Zilverzmurfen always post parts of her message in white?  Just curious that's all :-)
