1. of God ; associated with God
or religion : the Holy Bible ;
the Holy Land, where Jesus
lived ; Holy Week, before Easter.
2. devoted to religion : a ~ man ;
living a ~ life. ho.li.ness n.
1. being ~ or sacred. 2. His
(Your) Holiness, title used of
(to) the Pope.

So, Azardu, to answer your question: I don't know. Probably has something to do with god.

I would like to take the opportunity to Apologize about my spelling on the boards recently. I appear to be making more mistakes but typing faster due to 'The typing of the dead' (touch-typing tutor, I suggest you get it if you need to brush up on typing skills, I can now touch-type at 12-14 words per minute thanks to that game)
Peace to all!
TGR out.

AMaster, are you by chance in the military?

Oh yeah, and while I'm on the topic of spamming questions, Headbanger, did you ever get to the Symphony X and Savatage show? If so, how was it?

 

Don't you ever find it a right f*** when the girl (or boy depending on sex and sexuality) you like has a lad in their life? Even if you had just spent a night with another girl? Hell i'm single and would like to enjoy that prospect but i've now decided i want a relationship again. I much prefer the ... hell i don't know how to put it ... i much prefer the 'feeling' of a relationship.

 

Tell me about it. I once nursed a crush on a girl in school for about three years, but never dared make a move because she had a boyfriend and showed no sign of splitting up with him. When they split up, the first I knew of it was when I saw her with a new boyfriend. Am I sad, or what?

72. The complexity of a weapon is inversely proportional to the IQ of

Can't...stop...laughing!

 

I personaly like number 12 the best
12. Never forget that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder.
cant stop laughing over that. Ahh the benifit of a econimic driven country.
On another note If you feel down and out because the person you want to go out with is with somebody, listens to Sloans new song "The other Man". This song is about a man that will not accept that the person he loves is going out with somebody else.

Ohhh and sloan is a rock band, but the song is not hard.
