I don't do metal queen all that well, I'm thinking a smokin' R&B tune. You?

Loved the movie, Slappy. Just commenting on the inconsistancies, is all. :wink:

I've never claimed having a threesome...a couple times I thought there were some windows of opportunities, but it never happened.

It is a sad day in Mudville.

Pay mine and my brother's houses off. Buy a new car (not an expensice luxury job, just bigger and nicer than my 14yr old 4 cyl hatch). Quit work and go to uni and finish my degree. Put the rest in the bank, and trick women into bed by letting them believe they had a chance of getting some of it.

I'd first start a non-profit organization to create The Museum of Wisdom I mentioned in another thread.

Then I'd put the million in a mutual fund paying a 10% dividend, so we'd have $100,000 a year to start with building and planning the concept.

Before all that though, I'd buy myself that cute little red sportscar I saw today.......it was a "Boxer" (?) with big fat wheels and I just stood there admiring it for endless, happy moments.

Nimh? Since you'll probably read every post in your own thread: would you know what "Stichting AAP" means/is?

A "stichting" is a foundation (as opposed to an association). An "aap" is a monkey, but considering you capitalized AAP, its probably an abbreviation of something. If so, do you know what the full name is?

No, I don't know, Nimh.

Somebody from Holland sent me a message or a card or whatever, from them, but I was afraid to open it, in case it was some kind of virus or email-harvester, so I deleted it right away.

Don't you have a virus checker?

Googling up "stichting AAP", the likely guess would be "Stichting AAP, opvang voor uitheemse dieren", or "sanctuary for exotic animals".

Their English presentation is on http://www.aap.nl/internationaal/eng_algemeen.php3 - website home is http://www.aap.nl.

If you click "Apekoppen" you get a kids-oriented window that includes the option to "send an e-card to your friends", so thats probably what you got.

Someone just asked me this. I'd buy a small house with a yard and divide the rest between my parents, NPR, PBS, The Audobon Society, various homeless shelters. Course after taxes there wouldn't be much left after the house.

Nah, knowledge is best hoarded and kept away from others. Razz

I'd be too busy studying.

What would I do if I won a million dollars? Hmmmm, well, I guess I would just add it to the other millions.

Believe me, folks, money is not that big of a deal. I've been on both side of the tracks -- it just amounts to a different type of fun.

Which reminds me, maybe we should take a poll. How many millionaires on A2K. I suspect there are at least 50.

I'd order a theme chopper from Orange County Choppers and have Paul Teuttel, JR. do all the work.

I'd definitely remember charity before I spent it all on everything I want like a log cabin, a plasma screen TV, an ice machine and the Ozzy cd I lost at some party. After getting everything I want, I can see helping people out somehow like buying a round of beers at the bar or something nice like that.
