Ha Ha Pinkgirl,
Hmmm. I don't think I do anything all THAT weird, I mean like bathing nude in icy pools of water or anything like that...at least there is no photographic evidence of such a thing... But did you know that if you are floating in water and are very thin, you will sink (this is probably Harriecanary's problem). If, however, you have a lot of "personal insulation", you will float! |
Chrisy, I know nothing about being thin.

I hear WD41 is in phase I trials. Looks promising.

LOL Bill and Rich...
oh and: cats don't like haircuts. |
Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the fear of long words.
And while we are on the subject of cruelty, who decided the word 'lisp' had to have an 's' in it? |
I never knew it had an 's' in it, I thought it had a 'th' in it. :)
|
Did you know there is a thing called DICKIPEDIA - A Wicki for Dickheads?
People of all political and belief stripes are included for the dumb things they do/have done. I hope no one is offended by this, but I think it is a pretty good idea. Public figures need to mind their p's and q's! |
Mind your p's and q's ..... is this the trivia thread??? That means mind your pints and quarts. |
The 'Y' in signs reading "Ye Olde Shoppe" is properly pronounced "th". The 'th' sound doesn't exist in Latin so when the Romans occupied Britain the used the rune for 'thorn' to represent the 'th' sound. The rune closely resembled a lower case 'y'.
If you pronounce it 'Ye old', I don't think anyone would take notice. <!-- / message --><!-- controls --> |
Rich said: "I hear WD41 is in phase I trials. Looks promising."
I'm not using WD41! I won't drink 8-Up. I won't clean my refrigerator with Formula 410! What is so wrong with traditional values? |
what does rune for thorn mean???? |
The Gaelic language didn't originally have an alphabet. They used pictographs, which were similar to hieroglyphs, to represent words. The rune or pictograph for a thorn looked like the letter 'y'.

I am an old-school girl myself, Lee, though I might drink V9, depending on what the 9th veggie is. But I will never drink my Dr. Pepper at 11, 3 and 5. No way, no how. No two muskateers bars for me, and never will I put Phillips 67 gas in my car.
BTW, the Snickers bar was named after the Mars family's favorite horse. |
The alleged last words of Warren G. Harding were:
"How do the bull seals control their extensive harems?" Warren G. Harding was without a doubt the worst American president by any objective standard. He was probably poisoned to death by his wife while in office after having yet another affair brought to light. Nobody bothered to investigate his death, they were all just happy that he was gone. Warren G. Harding allegedly had three testicles. I'm just saying...... |
Hi Andi - sorry I didn't sooner salute your thousand posts with a useless fact. I hope that's the rule, I can't remember any longer. If not, I'll post again. Haha.
Useless fact: I am going to wash my car tomorrow. xxoo Flow |
Air quality where I live.
We don't have smog, we hardly have fog, but on occasion we get a lot of vog. |
Harrie:
Vog? What is vog? Is that volcano fog? Yesterday at 12:34 and 56 seconds the date was 12:34:56 7/8/09. Amazing! Yet somehow useless. |
Spray cheese, once thought of as a vaguely neon colored cheese food kind of thing you could shoot your eye out with...now comes in cream cheese flavor. Which means that although you can still shoot your eye out, at least it won't be neon orange.
|
Thank you Chrisy for your brilliant post! That might be the best post ever! My eyes are misting up.

Michael Jacksons high-water pants with the white socks and loafer look was actually inspired by Gene Kelley whom (who?) he was a big fan of.
