Yes, pa-TAY is what is served at some par-TAYs...

Best washed down with sham-PAG-nee.

[joe rushes, panicful, to his own defense]

'asp rant icon> I'd much rather be chopped liver than OCLean (tsuwm, I'll get you for this when you least expect)

no, no... I aided and abetted the disappearence of a thread; OCLeur [note proper spelling] is the progeny of b'devil. [take it, it's yours]

I can see everybody else's typos, but can't see my own

Some wrong headed individuals will say that you yourself are the best person to check your work. This is Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! The reason you made the mistake is the very reason that you will glide right past it when you are trying to proof yourself.

Pate de fooey gras?

And Fiberbabe: the idea of "washing" anything down with chamnagne! That would make too many bubbles go up one's nose!

gee, thanks again, twusm. you're swell to give me the credit. may i remind you that i was merely acroing the name that Anna called herself, for the sake of brevity. i was by no means endorsing it. for the record, if Anna were indeed to be characterized as liver of any kind, it would most certainly be foie gras. (darn, where did that "If i wanted to dig a deep hole" thread get to, anyway...)

b'ware>may i remind you that i was merely acroing the name that Anna called herself...

but adding the -eur was a stroke of... of... a sabreur, making it a cognate of sorts with that other unmentionable -eur word that gets mentioned so much in these environs.

Anna, do we have to get the binoculars, walkie-talkies and secret agent costume out again? And how much is the bus fare from Georgia to Minnesota these days?

Anyone else notice that Anu has used green for the reminder of the chat with the author of a book about the Irish?
Could he be lurking about?
Have a happy March 17th

Sir, whoever you are, are you implying that if we sent our own Olympic-before-last sleuth on this dangerous mission that she is unlikely to return? Betsy to Heavens!
