Syrple? Is that a Maryland thing that belongs in Dan's English Language post? x;-)
-
Uh, work? x:-/ Oh, yes, work! #-o Funny you ask that, I ask the same thing of the friend who sends me all these funny lists...

Thanks, I'll try that. I'll have to figure out a way to do it so that I'm not directly under the light though, I don't want little bug carcasses falling on my head. My bathroom is very very small, not lots of room to position my step stool. I don't …

>How do those dead bugs get into closed light fixtures? I just changed the lightbulbs in my bedroom and asked myself this same question! I never see bugs flying around in my apartment yet lo and behold, they are in the light fixture - ick. I ca…

My mother was just grateful I was alive, there was so much blood she thought I had been decapitated. And all I got were a few butterfly stiches. I was more traumatized that they had to shave some hair off. Of course I felt better when I got the cand…

Similar thing happened to me when I was about 9. I was playing in the same playground as a group of boys who were playing "Hostages vs. Iranians" . They were throwing soda cans filled with sand and I got hit in the head, blood everywhere, my mother…

Uh-oh

Yup, that sounds like my childhood, except for being kept back a grade. I grew up in the city where we had no parks, we played in an empty lot across the street where a building burned down and the bank covered in black-top. I also remember my uncle…

My mother had the same car! But growing up, we called it a beach wagon instead of a station wagon. I'm not sure why.

I'm with you Scott. I'm not a parent but I can't imagine letting my future children stay overnight with a stranger. Celebrity or not, he is still a stranger- not a relative, not a friend, just some guy. These parents obviously let their judgement la…

I hear you, I love a debate as well. Thats why I love these juicy posts...I think Don picked a doozy just to get us all going. As I stated on my first response to Don, I have lots to say on the MJ subject and believe it or not, I'm holding back! My…

I usually agree with the celebrity frenzy stuff and I'm not one of those people who really cares about celebrities, who they marry, divorce, etc. But I can't hide from this story and he readily admits that he has children sleep in his bed. Not norma…

Put a picture of MJ next to a picture of Peter Pan then switch them around. Betcha can't tell them apart. I believe he is trying to be the boy who would not grow up.

You said it Leslie...money talks and no one wants to listen to Diana Ross screeching. I know we have better systems than most but in my mind, I do not think it is a justice system, I prefer to think of it as a legal system that occasionally metes ju…
-
Agreed...found guilty or not, in the real world, the accusation is typically enough to have children removed from their home. Granted most childrens' services are far from perfect, we've all heard the horror stories, but at the very least these kids…
-
I have lots to say on the subject but I'll keep it short and polite...the law should have taken care of this predator ths first time. I do not believe that people accused of crimes against children should be allowed to settle or make deals - period.…

Thats great, thanks for the laugh. I guess we all make blunders every once in a while but my goofs don't end up in the newspaper, and I don't have a team of people coaching me on what to say in the first place.

I absolutely hate "This here" and "That there".
-
Tardy is an adjective so it can't be made into a plural noun. Well, it can in the spoken language which we use every day and everyone understands, but that is the reason why spell check won't accept it.
-
Scary, right? Its kind of like Mush Mouth from Fat Albert.
-
Its a beautiful thing.
-
Thanks, Don. Are you saying that my corporeal temperature will more effectively regulate if I suspend usage of extended verbiage? I now indubitably comprehend the reasoning behind my weather condition enigma. x;-)
-
Is that common for her part of the country? I've heard it before and asked the same question. Another irritating mistake- I had a client send me an e-mail telling me she "pacificly" told me what she wanted, blah blah blah... she lost me after "pac…

A popular Boston historical site/tourist attraction is Faneuil Hall. Pronounced fan-yull... many people, even some Bostonians, pronounce it fan-ill. There is a letter "U" there! I think the Bostonians who mispronounce it are those with the Kennedy …

My mother does that - she says "dramatical"which is probably a combination of dramatic and theatrical, but I'm not sure. My all time language pet peeve is when someone says "between you and I..."

1 above - that is a heat wave! We're around there right now but they are forcasting extreme cold for tomorrow (I thought THIS was extreme cold).I walk to work - 15 minutes- so I'll be wearing several layers of thermal and fleece under my ankle lengt…

I heard it with the "F word" too...

I'll drink to that-centanni!!! (thats "100 years" for any Italian-challanged Americans out there)

Maybe his battery will freeze in August...

Another thing I hate is when meetings are filled with business-isms, so much so that an outsider would have no idea what anyone was talking about. You know like "lets take those numbers and true them up" What?!?!?! Oh, you want me to validate them a…
