    I don't see how that phrase is suitable. Are you talking about some other subject or do I have a wrong understanding of that idiom/proverb?

    I think T2 is just disappointed because some dashing groom-to-be hasn't asked for his hand in matrimony yet.

    Nothing wrong with being straightedge, several of my friends have chosen this lifestyle. I can respect that, even though like my old friend, I am an avid adept of MJ.

    Uh, never thought there'd be so much pro-MJ people here. So... nobody will freak out if I say I'm pretty high right now ? :lol: -- It's like other people said you got to know when and where it's appropriate to use mj has a recreational drug.

    You obviously haven't seen that old poll which made it rather obvious that we've got a... disturbingly high number of marijuana fans here.

    From UsingEnglish.com:

    If someone is always a bridesmaid, never a bride, they never manage to fulfill their ambition- they get close, but never manage the recognition, etc, they crave.

    Speaking of getting high, i've noticed my posts in the Alleys are significantly less coherent when I decide to smoke before writing them. But they always seem way smarter to me than they normally would :shake:

    So Thunderwing, what is DoTW up these days?

    @ T2, nice explanation but I'm still going to go ahead and imagine you in a wedding dress :p

    @ Flix - I wish I could do my "energy manipulation" trick on you. It freaks out high people.

    Hehe - do what do you think that indicates about your site bro? :p :p :p

    He got promoted as a manager, believe it or not. He got transfered to a new workplace, and he had an opportunity to fill in for his boss, and he did so. Did so pretty damn well, so well the higher-ups actually offered him a store of his own to manage. He originally refused, but eventually had a change of heart. Things were hectic for quite a while as he basically had to rebuild a new team of employees, but he's kind of enjoying it. When schedules match, he and a few other friends get together and have a jam. His bass playing abilities are slowly improving, and that's saying something :lol:

    Another boring night at work. Dullsville! Thankfully, I have an old Windows Mobile 6.5 PDA with some roms, and during the last cemetary shifts I had to work, I played Dragon Quest 1 through 3. Awesome games, enough said.

    I feel like a dummy. That is exactly the meaning that I thought it would have, but I don't know who the "bridesmaid" is and what (s)he craves.

    Haha, yea, I think I'm going to stay away from the stuff. I've seen the effects of long-term pot abuse first hand and it's not pretty.

    Hehe! Smart guy. Though the effects might of course be depending not only on duration, but also on frequency and quality. (Dutch "Nederwiet" (Netherweed) is so strong in THC, it could be considered a hard drug.

    @Dice:
    I guess that by now you have finished your dinner. But based on the recipe you gave me earlier, I'm quite sure you'll love a good bobotie, served with green beens (or sugarsnaps), rice and a cold beer. Ahhhh! It takes som time, though...
    Here's a somewhat random recipe. Search for more recipes, there are quite some variants. I love the ones with diced apple.

    Both suggestions were good, although I ended up going with mojetes and cream of mushroom soup. I couldn't go with KD because that was what I served my youngest for lunch :p. The bobotie looks very interesting but I didn't have enough of the ingredients on hand. I will definitely give it a try at some point though.
