I am addicted to this a little: woordentest.
For those of you capable of a little bit of Dutch, it may be fun.

My school never went further than javelin-throwing. The year after I graduated there, I heard the name of my school in the news on the radio. A pupil had managed to throw through a car. Knowing the situation of the sports field, and the parking-lot, it had me puzzled for quite a while.

We had archery in gym also and the 4H(agriculture students) kids carried big buck knives on their belts.  I did live down south though

A good buck-knife was on my requirements list too, when I went to uni. Agricultural subject. Loved that knife. I guess it is a requirement for agricultural students in secondary schooling here too, depending on the direction they choose. I did not have agriculture in secondary schooling though, so, not sure about that.

We even had a circus at my high school, I did live in the same area that Ringling Brothers spent the winters so there were a lot of circus people.

Woke up very early this morning. A tadski before 5AM it was.. and this because I left my TV on.. quite quite loudly also. Why I forgot to off the sucker beats me.

I spent evenings pouring beer at a tap when I wasn't even 10 years old.  :beergrin:
Took me a few tries. But, then I managed to do it well.

Now I would not even be allowed behind the counter, at that young an age.

One of my legs is slightly longer than the other so that sometimes when I am walking I look like I am limping.
Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

It is far better for people to hate you for doing the right thing than for people to love you for doing the wrong thing. Never ever forget that.

  Did you just get it today?  Your gums will be sore for awhile.  Hope it settles down soon.  :)

  I have two deformed knuckles on my left hand, and early signs of arthritis in the X-ray.  :nerdy:

  Fortunately I don't feel anything yet, and I have full mobility.  It's just normal wear and tear.  :thumbup:

  I dunno.  The physician assistant must know by the amount of light showing through/density of tissue.   :apondering:
