If you look for something to relate to something, you will find it. Determininig whether it is fact or fiction is the challenge.

I agree, just passing it on. I didn't find it nor was I looking for it. You gotta admit though, it is kinda freaky.

What is so odd? So what...wingdings has an airplane. What does Q33 have anything to do with anything. It's all random.

q33 = question 33
a33 = answer 33
Just goes to show that when you WANT to find a comparison, you will.

Did you read that though? It has to do with how they look at wealth. The WTC represents the our countries wealth. It is in the finanical district...I think this is very interesting.

You know what the funniest thing is? Wingding have been around since 1980 when Windows 3.1 was out. GET OVER IT. It's just a stupid thing that seems to work. Q33 wasn't a flight number by the way. It MEANS nothing. Quit being so silly

Re: Q33,

reading the various islamic text's and quoting the bible as an answer to it.

Timothy 6, 10
For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.

=======
The most mis-quoted part of the bible.
The "love" of money is the root of all evil.
Money in itself, nor the saving of wealth is evil. It is the pupose it is put to and the way it is gathered. You can not live without money, you are not expected to live without out. It should not be your main and only goal in life.
========

and as for the quoting of various religous text's.

Jeremiah 23,16
This is what the LORD Almighty says: "Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you; they fill you with false hopes. They speak visions from their own minds, not from the mouth of the LORD.
===========

and only 'cos I saw it coming, regarding
different faiths etc.etc.

Ephesians 4 5
one Lord, one faith, one baptism;
one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.


Word up,

The truth is always the truth.

Peace out

Adrian

OT, but since people are talking about it:

WHAT THE HELL IS THE WINGDING FONT FOR ANYWAY??!!!

I mean, what possible purpose does it serve and why would Microsoft put it as an option?

Sorry for ranting, but I've always wondered about this.

Scott,

It's just a font with graphics in it.

So you can combine it in your documents should you wish to.

This was before smilies, HTML and the such like
