[edit] A little about me
This users favourite thing is Islands! |
I love Islands! I have been a Wikipedian since February 23, 2007. I enjoy using Wikipedia, and spend 99% of my internet time on Wikipedia. Three interesting things about me are I know pi to 35 decimal places, I know the Binary Numeral System, and I have memorized the capitals of all 50 states.
[edit] Languages (Babel)
Although I am Danish and Irish ancestory (as well as Scotish, Welch, and English), I can not speak Danish Language or Irish Language.

I like looking at the picture of the day, which is why I put it on my userpage.

A pile of saffron threads (each about 20 mm in length) from Iran. Saffron is a spice derived from the flower of the saffron crocus and is among the world's costliest spices by weight. In Western countries, the average retail price is $2200/€1550/£1100 per kilogram ($1,000/€700/£500 per pound). Besides its use as a seasoning, it has also used in its history as fragrance, dye, and medicine. Photo credit: Rainer Zenz |
