 We have a truce... but that is only b/c Finrod is (OMG, dare I say it...) fictional. *small tear streams down Ruinel's face, for facing bitter reality* Had Finrod been real, well... we'll just leave the rest to your imagination *gives RĂ*an a big nasty stare-down*. I actually tried to put my B-Day in my profile screen as 1st age... it didn't take. I have the UT (great book). I've ordered Morgoth's Ring, War of the Jewels, and Peoples of ME. They should be arriving at my house within a few days and I'm anxious to read them. The first thing I will read is Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth.  *gets all quivery inside thinking about Finrod*Quote:

I guess I better leave him to SGH, though, because I'm completely in awe of her vast admin powers (she can do things like edit my posts and make me appear to say mean things about Tuor )After you've read the Athrabeth, you might want to bring up our thread on it. It was a very enjoyable discussion  *thinks "North away...." - SIGH!*

Rian, I am actually glad to have some competition, but there is no hope for her in the end.

“What does the term american refers to” asked the boy, and the wise man answered: “Lets look at the dictionary then.” As an adjective American is: 1. Of or relating to the United States of America or its people, language, or culture. 2. Of or relating to North or South America, the West Indies, or the Western Hemisphere. As a noun American is: A native or inhabitant of America. A citizen of the United States. Then the boy asked, “What is America then?”, and the wise man looked at the dictionary again: 1. The United States. 2. also the A·mer·i·cas. The landmasses and islands of North America, Central America, and South America. Confused, the boy asked, “Does the term american refers solely to a us citizen or to any person in North, Central or South America?” The wise man replied: “What do you think?”, and the boy answered: “It is clear to me that while the term american is used to refers to us citizens, one can also use it to refer to any person who is from that continent too,” the boy thought for a while and asked the wise man, “Am I right?”, and he replied: “But of course.” The boy wondered, why is it that some people refuse to acknowledge the fact that the term american refers not only to US citizens but to anyone of the American continent?, but then sadly, the boy understood, that it is the calamity of ignorance. |
