9. Chances are...
Samoa...a crossword favorite! If it weren't for crossword puzzles, nobody would remember Teri Garr/Hatcher or Emo Phillips. And god forbid if aloe ever becomes useless as a lotion additive :)

18. Sorry, it's not a crossword.
That would be fun. My work requires 24 "something" ;-) because they don't recycle for 2 years, and I've run out of ideas.

Great ideas though!!! Thanks!

I will, BTW: use *&^% type characters as well, so don't try to hack in. Their very boooooooooring systems anyhow...I don't work for Nintendo.:freak:

21. Yikes !!!
Edited on Thu Jul-24-03 09:50 AM by Agitator
And to think I was pissed off because my passwords at work only recycled after 4 months. Then again, maybe its because I have to log in manually on eight different screens, and think of another password monthly for each screen. Oh wait, now I remember. I'm pissed off because management treats me like shit.


ETA: My personal choice would be Madagascar

25. Too bad you had to leave
I would love to live there. Actually was thinking about retiring there until GWB took control of the economy and my nest egg depleted by 70%. If things don't change, all I will be able to afford is a trailer park in Lubbock!!

29. I need an island with a nice beach, a grass hut, warm sunshine and
sultry nights, decent waves, an intact reef with good fishing, and lotsa fresh water (preferably a cascading water fall).

And...no mean people.
