An mp3 is a compressed wav file

LIFE, n.
A spiritual pickle preserving the body from decay. We live in daily apprehension of its loss; yet when lost it is not missed. The question, "Is life worth living?" has been much discussed; particularly by those who think it is not, many of whom have written at great length in support of their view and by careful observance of the laws of health enjoyed for long terms of years the honors of successful controversy.


"Life's not worth living, and that's the truth,"
Carelessly caroled the golden youth.
In manhood still he maintained that view
And held it more strongly the older he grew.
When kicked by a jackass at eighty-three,
"Go fetch me a surgeon at once!" cried he.
Han Soper

with a tip of the hat to Ambrose Bierce.


I would suggest checking at various "Lost and Founds" or perhaps asking at your local command post of the Salvation Army.

AND BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE ASKS....
llama (la-ma) any of a genus of South American ruminants without humps, including the alpaca, guanaco, and vicuna, especially, a domesticated species used as a beast of burden and as a source of wool, meat, and milk.

Music- The thread of life.

In every culture dissected by modern man (or atleast me), music has been an integral constituent. If a nordic Viking sang a ballad to a Masai tribesman, the Masai tribesman would instantly recognize the melodious tones for what they are. Even in todays hectic world, we use music to communicate and express our thoughts. Right now, a teenager in Ney York could be listening to Marylin Manson's verses of suffering and defeat. A man going through a mid-life crisis in Paris could be taking strength from Bob Marley's timeless tales of personal sturggle and the overcome of obstacles.
As you can see, music is a universal tongue, inherent in all nations, all cultures, but above all, in all PEOPLES.

Aha !

So this means that "The Meaning Of Life" is :
A Nordic Viking reciting a musical haiku to a llama eating a spiritually pickled waffle !

Damn that was cool....also..one more point to add...if you want to know what the true essence of a waffle is, one must consult a trusted and true person who has been guided by the ways of the three Books of Waffle: Book of Batter, Haikus of Syrup, and Songs of Stcikiness...only then, after suffereing through many cultural and ritulistic sex acts may one discover the true meaning of why waffles are here on this earth....they're not just for moderators anymore........

Everything is again withdrawn
Chaos will be restored

Upon which reality is written.

Back in June 2000 I joined these very threads under the name sharksfan2000. :) These boards were very young back then, I think they were only but one month or two old. In November-ish 1nol, or OneNationOnline, bit the dust leaving the email that I used for this member name nulled. I also stopped coming to these boards, I don't know the exact reason but when I tried to come back in Febuary of this year I had forgotten my freakin password for this username! I tried the "email me my forgotten passowrd" option, but like I said, 1nol was no longer and so was my email account there. Hence, my making of a new account and new forums entity you now know as Bizznatch :).

Hey, I was a very immature 18 year old when I made this thread. I'm almost 20 now. Iv'e grown up a lot since then. :) But then again, useless posting and haiku's and waffles are what makes forums fun!

BTW, the Sharks are an ice hockey team, and a real good one too. They are gonna win the championship next year, you'll see! :)

Ain't that right Chev?
