You can also write directly the code, it's boring but it should work
Code: Select all
[quote="name"]Text[/quote]

And comes like this
name wrote:Text

Sounds like you have BBcode turned off.

Easy fix though:

Go to profile by clicking the link at the top of the page ^.
Scroll down to Preferences
There you'll find 9 options, all with either Yes or No selected.
The 7th is "Always allow BBCode:"
Select Yes.
Hit Submit at the bottom of the page.

I just checked to see how much money if any I might get in a refund check from school next semester and HOLY ZEUS!!! it's going to be close to $2,000. I have never been happier about getting grants and not having to pay them back.

I think this might be the beginning for my car fund.

I'm all worked up because a friend just explained to me why all players in the Japanese musicalproduction of Elisabeth are female.

(because they are not allowed to kiss men they aren't engaged with)

now I've got pictures of hot musical actresses making out all over my mind and I'm in the middle of an internetcafe in London LoL

I find it humorous that a Christmas carol says Jesus was "born the king of Israel" when Israel didn't exist until almost 2000 years later. Ah, the inaccuracy...

Regardless of beliefs or religion, the concept of the "Land of Israel" (Eretz Yisrael) is probably about 4000 years old. The city of Jerusalem and the Kingdom of Judea is at the very least old enough to have been conquered by the Romans. There also seems to be records of "Israel" found in contemporary Assyrian, Babylonian and Persian literature as early as the 8th or 9th century BC.

Whether or not you believe Jesus was "born king of Israel" is your own business, but I'm fairly certain any Jewish Kittens out there can back me up that Israel has existed for a very, very long time. Certainly longer than 1948.

Oh, no worries. I don't get many opportunities to talk History much anymore. I'd also feel bad if you tried that line at a party and someone like me came up and gave you grief over it.

On Topic - Hoshea was, in fact, the last King of Israel.

Ooh, you beat me to it, gorn.

I have to put my .02 in, though...

Jas, the reason they call him the 'king of israel' is because the meschiach (literally 'anointed one', commonly transliterated as 'messiah' and translated into the greek 'christos' or more common english adaptation 'christ') was someone that the jewish people were waiting for, a foretold king from the line of david who would unite the tribes and, essentially, reclaim and rule their long lost kingdom. The christian movement seems to have started as a part of the jewish tradition, which reinterpreted the prophecies as speaking of a spiritual kingdom, a new jerusalem, and yeshua, or jesus, being the messiah. So naturally they called him things like 'king of israel' and 'king of the jews' etc. in their writings.

Aaand while that's a fact it's not exactly random, so...

OT: I can't seem to write a story without it becoming in some way about something deep or meaningful, even when I set out to write fluff. Not sure why, it just creeps in somehow.
