Indeed WC is right and yeah the hatchet thing really through me as well.

I like your thinking though Sime. This works for me and will now be updated as my new definition/transtaltion of "ask" into Japanese. I just like the idea of the Yakuza "hatchetting" questions of rival gang members during interrogation biggrin.gif

condition. Mask dance meeting, grinningly it designates the red of
revolution as yellow that you laugh, mask dance meeting, another mask
of your rear which to there is turns.

Because here in the can with respect to the world, am I who directly am sat down. The earth of the planet is blue, there is no at all I can do. However me 100,000 miles pass, I am still moved by very. And I think of that the methodological my space ship in the angle which goes has known. Call to my wife who loves I her very. She has known.

Hehehe. Maybe I'm a bit biased to answer this one, given the love of Bowie we share, but that's Space Oddity by the Thin White Duke.

Ahem...

The box is the system. That system is our enemies. But when, you see, what while seeing, it is? Businessman, teacher carpenter and attorney. Just heart of the people who try the fact that we rescue. But with our ovens, these people make and are part that of that system those our enemies still. These people the plug being able to make a foolish mistake almost, preparation does not do, you must understand. And most fighting in order to protect that, very inertness, depended on the system so desperately, is. If it is not our 1 year old, those 1 is.

That would be Morpheus's speach to Neo in training, before the lady in red shows up.

edit: My computer doesn't seem to have the japanese character set installed since the rebuild, so I can't get the japanese translators to work. Why it isn't asking me to install it, I don't know. As such, I leave the floor open to whoever wants it.

This might be a hard one, but I like this quote.

At a guess, I'd go for the Ocarina of Time, what with the ruby, saphirre and emerald, but I really don't know.

It would appear to be Seargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, though I could be wrong... if so, ignore the following.

The player plays does, without the revolution which it waits completely, directly all frontal theories it does, and it fights because of hedgehogs; And to brief very as for the queen and the which shouts it tried there will be a violent passion probably to push with that head! Or her head! Concerning at one time at amount.

Some part of Alice in Wonderland, maybe?

And did Sime guess the quote correctly?
