I'm only playing around buddy ... I'm a big fan of the Punk movment ... i forget that people forget that its a "movment" and not just a sound ... thats right, sorry kids Greenday are NOT punk ... they weren't even politicaly motivated. I'm sure you'll agree Tomo.

But .. i dont want to get into a rant over it .. so i'll bite my tounge for now... i just hate those guys so much eheh

Oh yes! Benefit gigs, the Anti Nowhere League, Crass! Time was you could strap on a guitar bought from your mum's catalogue over 26 weeks, shout "one, two, three, four!" and see what happened. Happy days...

For those who did not understand had had above, here is another example and (hopefully) an understandable explanation

Smith, where Jones had had "had had" had had
"had", "had had" had had the examiner's approval.

Explanation:

Smith and Jones were given six letters, AADDHH, and asked to form a verb using as many letters as possible.

Smith wrote HAD

Jones wrote HAD HAD

The examiner went for Jones.

what's more powerful than god,
more evil than the devil
poor people have it
rich people need it
and if you eat it, you'll die

I'm stuck on that one, but heres a small puzzle I made for you, inspired by the book I have just finished reading, Digital Fortress by Dan Brown. I recommened it

(If you can't figure it out, then you will have to read the book then

)

Yes, 100%

If you want to know how to figure it out, then I will post it here for you. I didn't think you would be able to get it

(Or, I would recommend for you to read the book!)

by **katrielalex** » Dec 6th, '05, 21:28

Why not? Dan Brown books are good.

P.S. Are you sure there's no mistake in the cipher kev?

He's incredibly formulaic - once you've read one book, you can immediately tell what will happen throughout the course of the others.

Having said that, he still manages to tell an interesting story.

Well, yes - but that's true of a lot of thrillers.

I was just wondering why Larry seemed not to want people to read them?

I'd like to know, as well.

I'm still waiting for a good answer to "Why do people like Stephen King?"

by **Larry** » Dec 6th, '05, 22:40

should of emphasised the plural i guess!
but i'll change my statement to "read angels and demons and forget about the rest, you already know them!"
