As I always say to my child: you're a silly goose, and in this case,
you both are. Wink

Now what's with my question, boys?

Quote:
What are the two longest words to contain the same consonants in
the same position?

An example: card/cord.

Excellent! Smile

OMG! This place looks like a train wreck. Whilst we can all learn from the German activities in Sudetenland, getting English lessons from a French man is crossing the Rubicon. Laughing


Thoh:

POLLEN
1 2 3 4 5 6 = Pollen count Cool

DANCE
DANCE
DANCE
DANCE = Square dance Cool


XX = to excess Cool Cool

That is great, I was thinking: Double cross! To (two) excess, is even better.

"or i thought of xx as deus ex machine"

Don't go spoiling it by thinking



Stormy:

XX - Dos Equis Shocked

I would sooner drink cactus juice Laughing



TTH:

BLOCKS: "…if that is a joke I don't get it. Could you please explain it to me? Only if you talk right."

Is it a joke? I guess the head Rabbi of Israel don't even know what blocks are ... This should be my new slogan "The one that blocks all the schmutz". And the guy that said labron's block beats them all. Do I get to use my building blocks joke about the Lego program again? No, oh well, we're trying to understand the basic building blocks of the universe, how those building blocks stick together and, with a bit of luck, why those building blocks are there at all. Having said that I appear to have writers block!


"All I did was agree it was a question" Shocked

Well, don't that beat all. Laughing


"How come I never get to drink btw" Crying or Very sad

Have a drink on me, enjoy Drunk Drunk Drunk Laughing



Rap:

1. The Odd couple_ + The _10_ Commandments = Cheaper by the _dozen Cool

2. Around the World in __80_ Days - The Magnificent _7_ = Winchester _87_ I think its 97

(Around the World in 80 Days (check out the ?'-?') - The Magnificent Seven = Winchester '73)

3. _101_ Dalmations + Passenger _57_ + Summer of __42_ = _200_ Motels (Zappa with help from Michael Nesbit---Monkeys is the Craziest peoplw) Cool

4. The _2_ Jakes + _3_ Days of the Condor + The __3_ Amigos! = Dinner at _8__ Cool

5. The _39_ Steps + __4_ Weddings and a Funeral + _12_ Angry Men = _55_ Days at Peking Cool

Nicely done! Razz


POLLEN Count Cool
All you do is DANCE Laughing
XX 2 Xes---dos horses---Mexican beer Laughing

--2 no's don't make a yes Shocked

They do in my book!!! Razz


Quote Francis, "Btw, we can do a bit longer" Embarrassed

Ok, you can quit boasting, I would expect nothing less in the affairs of amour. Razz

DANCE Question

I did notice this one right away as square dance.
Haven't had time to really work on the others.

I don't remember and I am being lazy and I can't find it right now.
I think CalamityJane said it, like I said I don't remember. I saw
Ach du lieber Gott < Made me think of my mom because she said that a lot when I was a kid. I had to call her on the spelling. She still says it to me unfortunately.

Also CalamityJane I think you know German. My mom is Swabesh (sp?) She said that is a different dialict kinda like slang is how she described it to me. I think my mom and sister wish they taught me German as a kid
because then I would not call and ask them questions.

So, I just tell them guess what I wish they would learn taxes so then they wouldn't call me and ask me questions. Which makes no sense to me since I am the one doing their taxes Rolling Eyes and their questions are Are my taxes done. I say NO. Then it is Well what is my refund? or Do I owe?
They and others do that to me a lot. They will call me every 10 minutes and ask me. They think it is funny. It is in a way but, how the hell am I ever going to get done if they keep calling me like that. That is why I work at night. So I can actually get something accomplished.

Sorry Tryagain. I didn't mean to use your thread for that ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Well, I did but, I didn't. Nevermind. Anyway I was reading what you all wrote and I have no clue what you are all talking about. Maybe it is a new language.

BTW Tryagain I do know Vista is not your girlfriend. How do I know I am dealing with my sister and her pc. Thanks for the drink btw. I really could use one right now.

What an embarrassment. I can see Jimmy Stewart right now, with the 1 of 1000. Embarrassed

I own a 97. Well a 1997 97. It's a 44 mag, a bullet not even manufactured until the 50. The original 97 (a 30-30) was a technological miracle. The 73 was black powder, usually 45-70, and that leaves a
sh-tpot of smoke. The 97 was smokeless. More practical in a drygulch

I think LIFE should be moved a bit to the right. "Life begins at 3T" doesn't make as much sense as "Life begins at 4T" or "Life begins at 6T."

I don't know what CHEDDER > is, but CHEDDAR > is cheese grater.

CalamityJane I did take German in high school and college. In my last year of college (university) we were not allowed to speak English, we could only speak German. I would go home and talk to my mom in German and she would look at me like Confused I would ask her what??
She would laugh and say if you go to Germany and speak like that people will look at you like Confused She said that is not how they talk.

Sorry Tryagain, I know this is your riddle thread but I wanted to address
CalamityJane and I didn't know how else to do it. Also I don't know why my post up there is on there twice. I don't see where I added anything that caused it to double post. Confused

btw when I said a drink I meant Drunk
You gave me Drunk Drunk Drunk Drunk
Are you trying to get me drunk? Laughing Laughing
