STARTING THIS FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, I WILL BE IN NEW MEXICO ON VACATION UNTIL AUGUST 18. DURING THAT PERIOD I WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE. HOWEVER, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO LEAVE ME A LOT OF MESSAGES, SINCE WHEN I RETURN GOING ON WIKIPEDIA WILL BE THE FIRST THING I DO. SORRY!
You have found my userpage. Congratulations! Now you must suffer throguh reading these rather humorous quotes that I have come across during my life.
"Since he has written that he already has a prior right to bespatter and besmirch the royal crown with (very bad word), will we not have the posterior right to proclaim the (another very bad word) tongue of the practitioner of posterioristics most fit to lick with his anterior the very posterior of a (profanity) she-mule until he shall have learned more correctly to infer posterior conclusions from prior premesis?" -- Saint Sir Thomas More
The quote below is my favorite example of BAD English useage by any nationality
"When a passenger of the foot heave in sight, trumpet him with the horn. Tootle him melodiously at first, but if he continues to obstacle your path, tootle him with vigor." -- Driving Instruction Sign in Tokyo
While this quote is mildly humorous in itself, the way I saw it in context it was laughable. This quote was one of only two the author could find for useage in his educational book on the Basques.
"Wow. These Basques are swell people', Bill said." -- Ernest Hemmingway from The Sun Also Rises
- (in heavy French accent) "An Englishman will not win this tournament, because the Pope is French!"
- Well the Pope may be French but Jesus is English. You're on!
- (sung to the theme of "Stars and Stripes Forever") Gelderland, Gelderland, Gelderland, Gelderland, Gelderland, Gelderlaaaaaand, Gelderland, Gelderland, Gelderland...
- "Pray to God that He may cause you to lose your beauty, so that you may better serve Him!"
-- Both of the above quotes are from A Knight's Tale
A Smidgen About Me
Location: Somewhere in Connecticut
Occupations: High School, I work for my parents
I am a growing Wikipedian at the member level and I like Userboxes way too much. You can learn more about me by checking out my Userbox column to the side.
I am an active editor to Code Lyoko here on Wikipedia and am working on a complete list of episode articles for that show.
In addition to working on canon material for Wikipedia, I am an admin on The Realm of Lyoko, a wiki created by Angie Y. that is dedicated to Code Lyoko fanfictions.
I am also a user on Battlestar Wiki, a wiki devoted to canon material from all incarnations of Battlestar Galactica. There, I go by the username Homeworld616 and mostly work on material relating to the Twelve Colonies of Kobol from the 2003 remake of that sci-fi show.
Statement of My Mission on Wikipedia
I plan to contribute to the Code Lyoko section of this encyclopidia through edits (major and minor), new articles (I'm planning a couple at this point) and talk page suggestions. I may expand to other areas of Wikipedia (history, Christianity, Battlestar Galactica, etc.) later on. I also plan to be helpful to my fellow editors, the SysOps and not be a pain or time-waster.
Opinion of Wikipedia
Overall, I find this site to be one of humanity's better creations. It is incredibly helpful and informative and highly interactive, making joining, editing and talking a breeze. Since I am a computer noob, I'm VERY thankful for Wikipedia's use of simple syntax when formatting. Many of the site's helpful policies, its Barnstar reward system and various offshoots/features encourage a strong sense of community and achievement. Despite some arguments that break out, all in all I think Wikipedia is a wonderful addition to the internet and I look forward to furthering its cause.
Funny Crap That Happened To Me Recenlty
My grandparents are visiting from Oregon and, as a family, we recently went out to dinner at a riverside restaurant. To put ourselves in the mood, we got drinks at a nearby Irish Pub. Now, the barman doesn't know the differance between alcholic and nonalcholic drinks, so I'm wondering how he got his license. I'm 16, and I end up with a Rob Roy, a super alcohol drink full of Bourbon and Scotch. It made me sick...but boy was it good.

Constructive Opinions on Improvement
- I think Code: WIKI needs some serious janitorial work.
- User: KFan II's rules for Code: WIKI are preventing me from becoming a Lyokon. I'd gladly join, but he strongly discourages contributions to Wikipedia because he and Someguy are at EXTREME odds with each other. I think he should blunt his barbs.
- I'd like to keep my options open for now. I won't join Code: WIKI just yet.
- Need more images for the Code Lyoko pages. I'll investigate where needs are and contact the community.
- Some more Trivia I noticed could come in handy for the CL pages.
- The episode recaps for Seasons 1 and 2 (exempt TeddyGodzilla and Seeing is Believing) are incomplete. They need to be finished, preferably before Season 3 premiers so we don't get too far behind.
- Need Trivia section for the Towers describing their appearance and role in Garage Kids
- Garage Kids article seems kind of POV. Need to note that.
- Since more secondary and minor characters were mentioned in the recaps, a section is probably needed for them in the List of secondary characters in Code Lyoko article.
