We haven't been told. I've just been searching for that insult and can find nowt. I really must try to keep up.

He jested, quaff'd and swore."
They cut me down and I leapt up high

I'll live in you if you'll live in me -
I am the lord of the dance, said he!

Maybe they are changing the main bearings...SteveShaw wrote:What direct insult? Obviously I'm not doing enough fishing. My theory is that the cats are away for the weekend and the mice are not trusted to play.
I was just responding to my "tinfoil-hat" response of how many states use Diebold voting machines (34, BTW...) when it came up LOCKED.

I dunno. Go to the RennFest, I guess. Who's with me?
Gee, I was afraid I'd miss something, and then again, afraid I'd p-o-ed somebody more than usual, and then I see that the lock down lets me have the last word! ... er... temporarily, I admit. and in only one thread ... but

- Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

Yes, I saw that.crookedtune wrote:Someone used an umlaut. (Ya had to be there).
However, umlauts are not universal, apparently. For instance, once when I began the study of another language, I found variations on certain vowels, in particular, a and ä, and, o and ö. So, my being an attentive student, I asked around, as could the letters ä and ö represent the letters a and o, but with an umlaut? Well, and in a word, no, the particular language which employs the letters ä and ö is not a germanic language, and indeed doesn't even have a word for umlaut! That is, there's a and o and ä and ö, and that's all there is to it.
BTW, as ä and ö are not part of an English keyboard, and as the keys they otherwise occupy are needed for communication in English, it's been necessary for me to switch my keyboard back and forth repeatedly, just to bring this umlaut discourse to you, dear readers. For instance, thereäs Ö+= uses the same keys as there's :-)
