In any case <OCF> is not going to acknowledge any of that "Romanist nonsense" ;)

So instead here's something from an Evangelical webpage...

<Does God love homosexuals? Of course! God loves all people.>

Once Again:Thanks for reminding me about "Brother Sun and Sister Moon".I often sing or hum it on my daily walks...It is really uplifting.

With the best wishes for the rest of your day !

Improve is the operative word here, so I tend to subscribe to Vince Lombardi's philosophy, that is its a sin if one does not try to improve one's self; or more pointedly its a profound sin if one does not refine or build on one's god given talents. Lombardi was a devout Catholic. He believed wholly in this principle and taught this in life and football

Of course I watched it again and enjoyed it just as much as ever.

St Francis certainly believed that God is Love.

Best wishes also to you.

I see from your profile that you're from Denmark.

<Thanks for the Sydney Opera House and I hope Mary's enjoying being a Danish Princess :D>

You are welcome and yes I guess she enjoyes it very much... Funny when I happen to say hello to her father just the day after the big wedding.There just around the corner he were.

Quite "strange" that you may perhaps soon hit your pillow while here it is just short after my brunch..

And thank you for "Crocodille Dundee"...We should go and see the good <Colonel> and have a cup of coffee or/and a walkaboutcreekbeer at "Wally´s" (?) looking at the sunset and perhaps a friendly game of chess !

<moronovich> <... Funny when I happen to say hello to her father just the day after the big wedding.There just around the corner he were ...> Really! Was he still wearing his kilt? :D

<The good <Colonel> lives in New Zealand, but isn't it nice we can all connect from these different parts in the world thanks to the internet and chessgames.com :)>

Thank you for your gracious hospitality on your forum.

I have decided to repost the Scripture verses pertaining to the wrath of God on my forum. Anyone who claims to submit to Scripture but does not believe in the wrath of God may feel free to explain in my forum how they can possibly have those two contradictory viewpoints.

All are welcome actually...

Ok now I'm back state side at Heinze VA near Chicago and awoken from surgery the day before Christmas... I was told if I could use the toilet they would release me. After my first step New Years celebration was sounding splendid, but I pushed on.

My guess is this car: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda...

I made you a 48x48 pixel .gif of Dan Gurney in his Eagle at Spa where he won the Belgian GP. You can use this for your logo if you like (of course I stole it from the original image, just as I did for my own logo).

But how did you know about what an Anoplophora Glabripennis (a.k.a. Asian long-horned beetle) was? I certainly had to look it up. And, frankly, it’s gestational cycle seems more interesting that my statistical analyses. :-)

But this is one reason why I frequent this site. The things you learn by visiting <chessgames.com>!

<Tiggler> is right, the picture in your avatar could be a pre-1968 (when Honda retired from F1) Honda RA300. But it could be anyone of other cars since F1 cars in that period looked very similar, and the resolution of your avatar is so low that it’s hard to make out the details. And I don’t think it’s a Honda from that period since all Honda F1s at that time were painted all white, the Japanese F1 colors, and your picture shows a wide white or light-colored racing stripe along the center of the car and a darker color for the rest of the car. And other manufacturers like Lotus sold some of their 25s and 33s F1 cars to privateers who could and would paint their cars any color they wanted as long as they were not representing the car’s country of origin. And Team Lotus cars at that time typically had a yellow racing stripe with the rest of the car being British racing green, which was a relatively light shade of green which might be the color that the car in your avatar was painted; see for example http://www.grandprixhistory.org/lot.... And the car in your avatar did not even need to be a F1 car since F2 cars looked very similar although they were quite a bit smaller.

Lol glad you saw the humor in that and I grabbed a species at random I must confess. Well the converstaion of which I was only tangently involved in has covered a few pages and frankly I simply treated it as one conversation as I just reopened my forum for traffic.

I actually looked at the avatar and tried to figure out what it was, my initial thought was Jim Clark's Lotus 49 but the stripe might be to wide. I looked briefly at F2 cars from that era also. Ruled out the Surtees Honda because of coloring scheme. Tiggler hooked my up with GIF and I will probably upload it today.

Actually your statistical prowess is an asset I just like poking fun and yes you go on a bit occasionally, but so do I, maybe a bit less technical but often enough dry and verbose.

Next car huge blue Cadilac... Go by the residence a few times never there, but he owns a carpet store in Hammond. We drive past no car and are now about 5 or 6 lights down the road I look in the passenger mirror and there she is right out front. Sloan turn around it just pulled up: No way you see a car in the rear view mirror that far away: Just turn around and go back already. A couple of lights away and yeah how did you see that? Pretty big car and my vision was tested 20/10 when I left the Navy, probably 20/7 or 5 but that was as far as they tested was down to 20/10 which was a simple read. So quickly we devise a plan that we will pull into the space ahead of the beast and Sloan gets out with a map in his hand and asks the driver directions while checking the VIN... If it is our car he will nod and I will get out then. So he nods I'm approaching and hear protesting: No no this is my bosses car he is inside the carpet store. Sure the whole family is in the car but ok I will go in the store while Sloan keeps the Cadilac there. I get a few steps across the sidewalk to the front door when I hear the tires squealing and see Sloan diving over the hood and doing a summersalt in the middle of Kennedy Avenue, and instantly back to his feet swearing away... I did what any good friend and partner would do I slid down with my back against the glass door holding my stomach laughing. Of course I let him know he was supposed to keep him from leaving. Heh heh heh... Shut up and get in the Nissan. The 500ci Cadilac was not going to be caught by a 95hp Nissan so after a brief chase even my eyes couldn't see the blue beast anymore. Back to the office. John the boss is kinda exited: hey this guy is filing a police report because you guys ran him off the road with your motorcycles.

I remember reading somewhere that while filming the movie they were doing a scene in which some former world champion driver (Brabham or Surtees perhaps) was supposed to pass James Garner driving theother car. Finally the director stops and has the former champion pull over, and scolds him you are supposed to pass him, pass him I can't catch him...

Right it was Jochen Rindt... Garner, on the other hand, took to the circuit as if he’d been racing his whole life.

<Parts of the filming required a sequence shot over three or four corners around an actual F1 circuit such as Brands Hatch. Then, when the cameras were out of the way, there was a sprint around the back half of the track to get back in position. Grand Prix employed a number of professional drivers, including Graham Hill, Jack Brabham, Jackie Stewart, and Jöchen Rindt. Garner so effectively diced it up with these greats in the free-for-all that they reportedly remarked that he could have competed in Formula 1 – and at one point, Rindt had to abashedly admit that he couldn’t keep up to Garner during a filmed chase scene.> From his bio and no offence I'm going to go with the people who were there.

I believe I heard it on the extras for the movie also, maybe it was director John Frankenheimer. Rindt was supposed to pass him and couldn't even catch him...
