Is that an old Morris Minor in front of your beautiful Ti? Your garage is like a snap shot from the 1960's.

Mrs nino prefers to drive her Mini because is like a go-kart and it's so small, the best car for Athens' traffic jam.
The plates on my Alfas are actually historic plates. They belong to the Hellenic Federation of Classic Cars, (EOOE or FHVE - you can check www.eooe.gr).

Boy, I envy you and Mrs. Nino!
Do you want to adopt me? I'm old, but I do housework and I am a great cook!

he said they will get big rocks and wrap em up in their coils and chuck them at their prey...and like they use it to kill small animals like rabbits and stuff, but they throw them at people and it doesnt kill them but i guess it hurts.
i couldnt find anything on yahoo about them, i guess he must be making it up, i was pretty sure humans and monkeys were the only ones to use tools.

I think he's pulling your leg, but it's still a fantastic story! I'm going to use it if you don't mind.
