kunyomi

Most of the kanji characters have more than just one (Chinese) reading in Japan. And the Japanese way of reading it is called Kun-yomi. It's written in Hiragana for the kids (likely for this ookii=big symbol) or for artistic purposes.

yogasm

The result of several outlandish excersises, that stress your brain. A softer variety of this is the satisfaction after a long run.

Why are you still standing on your head clapping your hands behind your back? Don't tell me you are trying to achieve that yogasm nonsense again!

babelicious

Babe + delicious. Describes the sexiness of a female. Is often deliberately used in the porn industry, but can be also used on praising a T+ image.

It may also describe a covetous man, but that seems to be rather a wide-spread mistake.

hiragana

Invented by the Japanese women in the 8th century AD, it can express any native Japanese word. It's useful for writing poems like haiku, as it allows only one way of reading, unlike kanji. It is in much heavier use now, as the kanji stops being as remarkable sign of tough knowledge as before. See also Katakana.

Windows Server 2003

It is a successor to the Windows 2000 operating system that can be used both as a server and as a workstation, where a conversion may be done (although undesirable at the registry level - you essentially get a bloated XP then) by hand, preferably. The system runs indeed smoothly, but only if a person knows what he is doing. The system is more picky on various drivers' defects, so one has to adjust for example the service "Start" type from Auto (2) to On demand (3). The system also accepts nearly all Windows XP drivers (the Compatibility tab helps to the rest) so that no faux-pas seen on the Windows XP rise vs. older hardware can surprise you. You can download a Service Pack 1 for this system and integrate it into your installation to fix many bugs and enable the NX bit-based buffer overrun protection.
To return to the conversion to a desktop environment, I recommend tweaking in gpedit.msc a lot and copy nusrmgr.cpl from Windows XP to simplify the user management. You use the said Group Policy Editor to remove the "Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete" nag screen, remove the asking for the reason for shutdown etc.

Right now, I'm running many services and applications on my Windows Server 2003 box. They include all of the common internet services - the web, secure HTTP, FTP, DNS, DHCP, NAT routing with port forwarding and countless small ones. As for the user interface (UI), I use StyleXP. All "serious" applications work, I can play GTA:SA, DOOM 3, Manhunt, Postal 2 and most other such games under this OS.
