I do it every time I drink more than 300 ml of rakia.

[geezer-also.livejournal.com]

That sounds like a lot. How much is that in real measurements, ya know like ounces?

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

dude. standard liquor bottle is 750ml

and soda is sold in liter bottles

it's not like he was discussing temperature in centigrade or something

Never underestimate the poorness of the American education system when it comes to the metric system. I'm pretty sure we only spoke about it once in elementary school.

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

Oh I know how poor the US schools are.

But even so.

Then again, if it wasn't for drugs, I might not know the metric system....

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

That's sad.

The whole world uses it. (Well except you and those weird Brits).

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

Meh; and the rest of the world is religious.
I ain't gonna change the way I roll.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

No it isn't.

For instance we don't have a religious wing of one of our major parties. Hell, we don't have a religious wing of any of our parties.

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

Population wise it is.

I mean, most of the world is religious. One sort of hogwash or another. Be it Vishnu and Shiva or Allah or Yahveh, it's a bunch of bronze age crap.

I wasn't speaking strictly of political parties.
p.s. out of curiosity, what time is it there?

[geezer-also.livejournal.com]

dude......Yeah I guess some is and some isn't, but I still "know" how much quarts, gallons, cups and pints are :D

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

A pint's a pound the world around.
A liter is a kilogram no matter if you give a damn.

1kilogram = 2.2 pounds

from there, you are on your own

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

(the weight there is for that amount of water. but since all we need here are conversions that should suffice)

[ironhawke.livejournal.com]

Www.onlineconversion.com

I pretty much lived there during college.

[geezer-also.livejournal.com]

For some weird reason the fact that a kilogram = 2.2 lbs is the one I know.
I'm pretty sure a meter is about 3" longer than a yard but after that meh :D

(by the way, I hope you're doing OK, you haven't been around much lately)

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

aside from being newly single, I'm doin well
keepin busy with work.

Sincerely, thanks for the concern.

[airiefairie.livejournal.com]

Awww...hugs...

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

thanks.

now if only you had some nice american friends you could set me up with....

alas, the world is big, and while an equally good or better match for me most likely exists, finding her wont be an easy task.

Although finding a temporary stand in to take my mind off her, now that can be done in a night at a bar.
If only I was that kind of guy...

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

A liter of what is a kilogram.

Liter is volume. Kilogram is weight. 1 liter of water ain't the same like 1 liter of honey.

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

you missed my other comment, huh?
cause yeah, I mentioned that as an addendum

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

Drat.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

The more important thing about alcohol is the ABV (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABV). And in Rakia, it's pretty serious (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rakia).

[enders-shadow.livejournal.com]

The proper term you are looking for is proof (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcoholic_proof)

Silly foreigners with your funny names for things.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

Well the beverage we're talking about is foreign, so....

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

About 10 ounces.

[geezer-also.livejournal.com]

Thanks (I really was curious...just not enough to look it up :D)
