    ej: why bother with the zombie if you're not going to go to that area? I hate those pesky zombies. Why can't you just chop their heads off?

    Not really Morningstar, at the time a large chunk of France was english. But he was 'french' from a ethnic point of view so to speak and his real name was Richard de Lioncour or somesuch cant remember properly but on all statues in London he is not called Lionheart but the french name of it so it not really something that is not common knowledge.

    He was also gay.

    [​IMG] I read about a guy yesterday that looked like a tiger. He had tattoos all over his body, stripes of course, and he had steelwhiskers, pointy teeth and everything.
    And another person had found a snail in a drawer. Er, well. The drawer hadnt been opened in ten years and the snail was alive. Bleh.

    I just redecorated my room. (Well, parts of it anyway)

    Yesterday, my whole PnP party got leveldrained, except for my character ;) I told those idiots we should take the left tunnel, but noooh they had to take the right. (I went left, and ran back when I heard the clash of battle.) When you know there are undead, don't leave the cleric. :)

    Our school has new benches. The deputy head told us (me and 3 others) that you can undo all the bolts.

    To steal them you either need 3-4 people and you can just pick them up as a whole (they're not attached to the ground). Or you could just get a common spanner (common size) and steal all the bolts so they would collapse.

    [​IMG] in China squid is the most popular pizza topping

    There are pink dolphins in the amazon river

    frogs are sick by coughing up their stomchs, using their front legs to get the stuff out then swallowing their stomachs back down

    Dolphins sleep keeping an eye open swimming in circles - they change eyes and change direction to rest both eyes - this way they don't get caught by predators

    The actual color of a flamingo is dependent upon its diet. Special "flamingo chow" was developed at the Philadelphia Zoo.

    The English king with the French name was Richard Coeur de Lion.

    Richard Coeur de Lion only spent half a year of his reign in England for the rest he was either in France or on Some Crusade or other.

    Dark elves existed in Scandanavian mythology (at least, I think it was Scandanavian). They had a big long name that I can't remember starting with 's'
