Ya know, I spent two years in Germany. In that time I saw tons of teenagers (young ones) in the clubs/ taverns/ bars whatever.
Strangely enough their folks didn't mind letting the kids out to go do whatever. Kids partied like kids do. But it was no big deal.
Now as an American it was strange at first. But I realized after a time that they seemed to have far less problems with their kids. They trusted them more. The kids lived at home longer. And it wasn't abused as much (alcohol). Basically the difference I personally saw was that the problem was with US not trusting our kids and making so many things taboo.
But then we are in the land of puritans.

God bless you, Ampere.
And Erik: it was a treat. I had enough friends over 21 to help me out. Some of those friends wanted to be in law-enforcement after that. They were smart guys. They knew they had to be really friendly to me if they wanted a chance in any PD.
*HINT*HINT*

One time I built a matter transporter, but things got screwed up (long story, lol) and I ended up turning into a kind of half-human, half-housefly monstrosity.

ja sure, you becha.
Unfortunately, of the two years in GE, I was only actually only there one: two 6 mo tours in The Balkans. Macedonia and Kosovo.
Wish I could have spent more quality time in Germany, travelling Europe, seeing stuff.
The climate was the same as here in the Pacific North West. Butthere is absolutely NO culture here.
It was fun while it lasted.

Mine is the wrong damn country's independence day. Fucking Bastille Day. Damn French.

July 14th. And no I don't know anyone else's birthday. They're not as important as mine anyway.

Screw liquid diamond. I want to be able to fling apartment building sized ingots of extracted metal into space.

Geez. I think I've just been called a "water buffalo" by the cosmos.
I always got a kick out of being a Metal Boar. (Which some days is about as accurate as being a Leo....)
Combine East and West and I'm a Metal Fire that fans myself with my own Air and finally puts myself out with my own Negative Water. Little or no tie to Earth. Go me!
Arg! I'm being inundated.
OK The list has been duly updated. We /still/ haven't heard from 3-2 or Liniah. And No one seems to have a birthday in May. *shrug*
*contemplates adding Dv's sister to the list but decides against it. (Unless she starts posting of course )*

I'd have to say that you are one cool, fucked-up guy.

Ok, i'm stuck with Metal Dog. Not much cool there.
Maybe a Steel Pit Bull!
Yeah! That sounds cool.
Better than the weak ass Virgo earthy motherly thing. Too new-agey, hippiefied for me.

I've always been quite satisfied with my astrological thingie-ma-bobbies. they really do describe me to the hilt! the only thing I don't agree with is that "they" say my favorite colors are earthy. NOT! purple all the way!
