now if Alice had just gone ahead and *changed the subject to... oh... food, you might have suspected troy
Excuse me, tsuwm, but now days i only threaten to turn threads to food -- just the threat of a food fight and every body caves in and starts talking words! it is especially effective on thread that are about to be come dreaded sports topics..
however, i have been thinking about (and collecting) words that come from mid eastern languages, urdu, farsi, pashti, and others.. and while i am not nearly as learned as some. i can throw out the shawl-- or emerge from my burnoose-- not to worry, i still have a caftan on underneath it.. and these are the least interesting words from my collections
