mint,
you're a mod, not an admin. Only i am admin :D
you're 4 cylinder because you don't have enough posts to be v-6 and then v-8...etc
but once we switch to either vB or UBB you will have Moderator under your name. Hang on tight for now.

Hi everyone. I am from Malaysia. Am I the only guy from the Far East here? Great to be able to communicate with you all. For your infos, Japanese cars rule in Malaysia. No US cars - because cars are right hand driven here. European cars are also popular - the Beamers, Mercs,Porches and Ferraris. Would love to have a Viper though!
I read somewhere in the Forums about someone complaining of snow. Well, no snow here. Hot as a sauna whole year through though heavy rain is not uncommon.
Malaysia will host the second leg of F1 this year in March (after Australia). Great to see the F1 coming back to the US last year.

Being African has nothing to do with a skin color, it has to do with coming from the continent, myself and Toksin are from Africa, that makes us African.
If you really want to get petty about it, I also have American citizenship, so then I would be African American, but wait a second, I am white, how can I be?
Easily answered, I am from Africa!

Political correctness has confused the issue, if you're born in America you're American, if you're born in Africa you're African. You can't be both.

It's nothing against you Hobbes, it's just something that really irks me (especially when people have the audacity to tell me I can't be African because I am white!).
