Compatibility is less universal. That's why. If you don't take care to save your files in .doc format (and make sure the formatting will transfer appropriate) you could wind up finding yourself royally screwed.

if you find yourself to be stumbling while walking out your door, it's your self conciousness telling you that it wants to stay inside and sleep. it has been proven due to people who stay up later then they normally do, versus people who get enough sleep. the ones who stayed up later stayed awake longer. (there is more to it, i just don't feel like telling it all....your on a computer, google it. GOSH)

it is recomended to get at least 7-9 hours of sleep everyday, while most of america only gets about 6-8.
also, if you take a quick 5 minute nap, you will actually wake up feeling more refreshed then a 2 hour nap

Here's one I think everyone will find useful. Did you know that brain freeze is actually caused when the nerves in the roof of the mouth are exposed to something super cold for an extended period (Like say that Slurpee, or Big Gulp you bought from 7/11

) The fix, rub your tongue against the roof of the mouth, this'll warm the nerves up and end that nasty headache known as brain freeze.

And with that Animeman73 will be off now see you around

I was wondering what the tmobile address was. This will be an important fact to know!

Matsuri Japan was the first DDR Song to use 32nd-note increments between notes.

Bag is often incorrectly cited as the slowest song on DDR Extreme. Be In My Paradise is 2bpm slower, and Somewhere Over The Rainbow has a fairly noteworthy section that runs at 42bpm; more than 35% slower than Bag.

RSVP is the acronym for "Respondez s'il vous plait". This is French for "Respond if you please" RSVP is a carry over from when French was the International Language. We still use it today when we want a response from someone and we send them an invitation. It is surprising how many people don't know what it actually means. Another good one is SASE for Self Addressed Stamped Envelope. So if I ask you to RSVP in a SASE. you will know what I mean now, right?

Who here knows that Goodbye is the abbreviated form of God be with ye?

It's true.

The days of the week are; Sun day, Moon Day, Tyr's Day, Wodan's Day, Thor's Day, Freya Day, and Saturn Day.

I believe Saturn replaced Loki when he fell out of favor. I think it would be interesting to have a Lokiday. Maybe it would have changed to Luckyday. Everyone could use one of those.

Sonday, Muesday, Tunesday, Whursday, Thriday, Fraturday, and Stunday are the terms I use to describe the periods of time after a day has passed (AKA after the end of the 24th hour) and before I have gone to sleep. AKA right now it's Tunesday, August 25½, 2009.
