..movie? - matrix (i stand by the trilogy no matter what)
..band? - ill have to get back on this one

..continent? - asia cuz im asian
..season? - summer!
..weather? - sunny and/or rainy days
..subject? - science
..chemical? - theres something about caffein that i really like...
..food? - cheese cake counts right?

A heads-up, this isn't a programming clan.  If you had TRULY read the rules you'd know that.............

.....

DS9 and Voyager > Babylon 5 for LIFE
Matrix: first rules.  Second: eh.  Third: sucked.
And finally: COKE?!?  Omfg Darrel we are no longer friends.  ANY PEPSI is better than Coke.  Even diet!

Just cause he says he has no programming knowledge doesn't mean he didn't read the rules.

Haha, cool!  I bought Frank Herbert's Dune and Children of Dune a while ago.  I haven't watched Children of Dune yet, though.

Why would they love each other? Because they are both asian?

YO! I didn't mean it like that,
I meant to say it like this:
Just cause he says he read the rules -- does not mean he doesn't know we're not soley a programmer's clan*.

It is a common mistake that most people interested in the clan will assume it is a programmer's clan.
I don't see what you guys are worried about, reading thru the rules (again) you don't mention that we're not a programming clan.

Good god man, what we were saying was that xem and I are good friends.  I was kidding with him.  We both made it clear that we are friends and poke at each other now and then.  Sidoh apparently caught on too, that we were friends just jabbing at each other.

Hence, you didn't need to "correct" me at all.

I can remember a day when it was raining in my front yard yet (partly) sunny in my backyard.  It only lasted a minute or two, but rather common for there to be spots of sun with spots of rain ;)

I know it sounds bizarre, but it happens *all the time* in the Phoenix area.  Well, not lately, because we've been without rain for 140 days straight now (z0mg it's teh gl0bal w4rming!!1!!!), but it is a unique thing, to be raining hard and be able to see blue sky.  I'm sure it's not uniquely a Phoenix thing, but I never saw it in Chicago.

I think its just the clouds not being directly in front of the sun, but close enough that it rains in your area ;o.

Uhhhh no.  I'm talking several major portions of clear blue sky.  I would know.  I happen to live here.   >:(

Yeah.  THat happened to me one day last summer.

It was raining and I was playing basketball.  The bottom half of my driveway got soaked.  The top half of my driveway was completely dry.  I was like "What the hell?!"

We get sun-showers here occasionally.  But I'm pretty sure that's not what he meant in his original post :P

We also haven't had rain in about 5 months (150 days).  But we've had plenty of snow, so I guess that counts :)

(that's a lie, we've had a lot of rain this winter.  But shhh)
