well i'm pretty sure JC is a swell enough guy to let other people use the word 'passion' and/or 'Passion'.
I knew someone would come up with this. Let's have some humor here. Passion means different thing if you dont apply it to JC.
Nah, he got 'Passion' down. Here is from webster.com Main Entry: pas·sion Pronunciation: 'pa-sh&n Function: noun Etymology: Middle English, from Old French, from Late Latin passion-, passio suffering, being acted upon, from Latin pati to suffer -- more at PATIENT 1 often capitalized a : the sufferings of Christ between the night of the Last Supper and his death b : an oratorio based on a gospel narrative of the Passion 2 obsolete : SUFFERING 3 : the state or capacity of being acted on by external agents or forces 4 a (1) : EMOTION <his ruling passion is greed> (2) plural : the emotions as distinguished from reason b : intense, driving, or overmastering feeling or conviction c : an outbreak of anger 5 a : ardent affection : LOVE b : a strong liking or desire for or devotion to some activity, object, or concept c : sexual desire d : an object of desire or deep interest - pas·sion·less /-l&s/ adjective synonyms PASSION, FERVOR, ARDOR, ENTHUSIASM, ZEAL mean intense emotion compelling action. PASSION applies to an emotion that is deeply stirring or ungovernable <was a slave to his passions>. FERVOR implies a warm and steady emotion <read the poem aloud with great fervor>. ARDOR suggests warm and excited feeling likely to be fitful or short-lived <the ardor of their honeymoon soon faded>. ENTHUSIASM applies to lively or eager interest in or admiration for a proposal, cause, or activity <never showed much enthusiasm for sports>. ZEAL implies energetic and unflagging pursuit of an aim or devotion to a cause <preaches with fanatical zeal>. synonym see in addition FEELING He owns meaning 1(capitalized), but people are feel to use 2-5(not capitalized).
that's why they have 4 other meanings, hence the word passion is okay to use--with or without JC's approval.
True, but he would register a copyright for the word, not a patent. No biggie, perhaps I'm being overly technical in this setting.
because it was goofy of you for saying that to begin with (bad day understandable though) and your sig....coming from a vietnamese guy...i still think it's ridiculous.
BTW, let's end the 'passion' issue right now. feishen did a great job putting those pictures up, let's not this wording issue lock the thread. I started it, and now let's end it.
Yao Is Changing Folks!!! If you watch closely to how he's behaving during these Olympic games, it's pretty apparent that Yao is slowly developing the Most Dominant Ever mentality. He WANTS to win. He's SPEAKING his mind. He's CHASTISING his teammates. Yet he sets a GOOD EXAMPLE. Hopefully, if he can bring back some more of this competitive fire to Houston, we'll see Yao take another big step forward. Isn't this what Houston and JVG have been asking from him all along??? theSAGE
You are Vietnamese? Well, I know the sig is kinda strange, but it's true! Your food is truly awesome. I go to a local vietnamese restaurant almost on a daily basis, and just can't get enough of that thing. The taste puts the Soup Nazi in shame!
disagree... i can definitely have enough pho. i had it like three nights in a row once... and then i couldn't have it for a year.
In UTAH?? Are sure? I think I have an upper limit for Pho. Don't got one for a nice quesadilla though!
My home is in San Diego, whose pho kills. I went to school and works in Utah. There is one pho restaurant in Salt Lake, and it's not nearly as good. I live an hour away from Salt Lake, but I still drive there regularly. If I don't have to live in Utah anymore and stay in San Diego, my life long dream will probably be owning a pho restaurant, or have an awesome cooking vietnamese lover, or move to vietnam entirely. It would blow to have such low ambitions, and that's why I am in Utah now.
I'm not really impress with that game against New Zealand. That team has no height, no wonder Yao dominated. This is the same team he had 30 something points back in the 2002 world championship in Indiana. The rest of the upcoming games he want score 20 pts. Yao has to start rising up to the competition and be more consistent. Confidence is lacking.
yea it's good when they have pho noodle. i've been there one too many times where 'sorry we're out of pho'. nothing can beat my mom's pho btw.
