Journal by byolinux

And there are no tigers in Haiti. Plus, the author was English at the time when England controled India as a colony.

    but I suspect you meant to put the words "want to" after the word "you." On further reflection, though, I'm not sure which would lead to a better discussion: if you have a collection of people who each know a few random facts about you, the portrait painted would be perhaps more interesting than that which might be genereated by asking you your favorite color.

      Just thought I'd say hi, and then, as is my nature, I decided to be more difficult.

      Ah, but it's a good nature to have, I'm sure.
