Also, I don't remember that Narnia book. xP

Hmm, I was thinking that earlier too. The water horse is definately not a narnia book. I forget the order but I think this is right.

The magicians nephew
The lion, the witch and the wardrobe
The horse and his boy
Prince Caspian
The voyage of the dawn treader
The silver chair
The last battle

Hmmm, seems to be all there, and definately no "water horse". It must be a renaming of one of the books, perhaps the voyage of the dawn treader? Although I don't remeber any mention of waters horses in that.

Aha.

If you click the image and magnify it you'll read the following:

"FROM THE CREATORS OF"

just above the line reading "Chronicles of narnia"
How annoying

Evidently it therefore has nought all to do with the books.

The second Narnia film is "Prince Caspian"

But both Caspian and Water Horse were filmed in New Zealand at around the same time.

I remember when they were filming Water Horse because it was close to where I was living at the time, a guy I know was an extra in the movie, and also because it seemed like I was constantly carrying film rushes for that and also "10 000 BC" to and from the airport loaders.

(Used to work at the airport)

You are right. That is weird.

Another coincidence:

When I was in high school there was an announcement over the PA and the instant I heard the chimes and the principal's voice I thought "such & such teacher has died." And it turned out to be true. Didn't even know she was sick.

And another:

When I was in primary school, me and another kid in my class both injured our left thumbs quite badly. And we were (possibly are) both left handed.

A close friend I know over the internet always has events happen to her that are somehow connected to me. Both in the same day, I bought a frog-shaped guiro at a music store and her music teacher showed her class the exact one.

I PM'd Harmony and apparently its her uncle and he often makes his own stuff, he was just messing about with Japanese words and chose that one. Look it up if you want it's meaning although it can be spelled with a 'Z' instead of an 'S' as well.

I might get one done myself at one of these 'print your own logo' tee-shirt shops.

I think, given Mushka's use of a grey blazer with green tie/shirt it'd need to be those colours.

Yesterday I kept forgetting to call my friend, and got the strong feeling to do so before I played my video game. I knew she was going to call me right then, and the phone rang. @.@ And it was her. ^^' Those things always happen, whatever I think can come true, however whimsy or erratic it maybe. *she's been using a thesaurus for new words. XD*
