C. Jane was right.

That's funny ehbeth,
she doesn't like the answers here and opens another
thread. Well, it seems, at least the guy has more
common sense and doesn't want to get involved with
someone who has so little understanding for him, and
his problems. This girl has a lot of growing up to do.

Frankly, if someone would call me in the middle of the
night (emergencies are exempt) just to talk, I'd scratch
them from my list immediately.

If someone called me repeatedly in the middle of the night just to 'talk', I'd hire a hit man, but I'm extreme that way. Wink

Back in high school, freaky chicks who did that because they liked me seemed okay, but I grew up.

cav, we do a lot of crazy things in high school, but diane
is already in her mid 20s Wink

As a matter of fact Walter, you could call me in the middle of the night, since we have a 9 hour time difference and 3 am
your time would be 6 pm my time Mr. Green

As a matter of fact, my dearest CalamityJane, I'm aware of that.

And can you guess, why some call me 'naughty'?

Well, I figured she wasn't in high school. I'm actually older than her, by about 10 years, but by my mid twenties, I was pretty stable.

The imp in me wishes you had said she was in her 40s, just for the humour value. :wink: Now I'm being naughty like Walter....you can call me too Walter, as long as you don't speak in German. I'm a little rusty. Smile

At Christmas, I can only get through "Stille nicht, heilige nicht" before I'm completely lost, and then I get the urge to channel the spirits of Mohr and Gruber all through the night, disturbing their gentle and well-deserved rest. Laughing

I won't do that, cav, sorry, but I've forwarded your response to an Indian aristocate. (He can't German neither.)

Finally, I can be a "kept man". He's a prince, isn't he? I have no idea how to break it to the wife. Laughing

I'm guessing this thread is thoroughly derailed. Well, we can only hope diane listens, but the odds are probably better playing blackjack. :wink:

Oh mei Walter: If they call you naughty, I wonder what
they call BiPolarBaer? Wink

cav, you must then speak some yiddish eh?
My jewish friends here don't know much yiddish,
but when I lived in NYC, I could hear it all over
town. It sounds so funny Mr. Green

I don't feel guilty of shredding the thread cav,
diane has opened a new one in the hopes for better
answers, which are - unfortunately for her - not too
good either.

0 Replies

I don't actually know much Yiddish, although for the purposes of this problem of diane's, "OY VEY!" might be appropriate, and although not real Yiddish, "VHAT THE HECK ARE YOU THINKING?" would work too.

When my brother and I were kids, we just assumed you naturally learned Yiddish when you grew old, because all the grandparents spoke it. Smile

I'm glad you don't feel guilty for derailing the thread. There are those who come here for advice, and then don't want to listen. You are right, she won't get any better answers in her new thread. Wink

Oh, who told you I was Jewish anyway? I sure hope it wasn't....zee Germans.... Laughing

cav, you really have lot of chutzpah to talk like that - a lung un leber oyf der noz!

0 Replies

Well, chutzpah also runs in the family Walter. Now I'm wondering if you want to cut a lung off my nose....I don't get it, is this some sort of wacky German humour? Smile

You can deny I was in the resistance, but only because you know how old I am. Wink

Now the tale of my brother and I regarding Yiddish is absolutely true. It has become a family classic.

You mentioned it somewhere in the cooking forum cav Wink

Actually I love to hear yiddish: They talk about being "verklemt"
to talk about their "gelt" and the heavy burden they have to "schlepp"
and so many of their favorite meals are German. Potatoe lattkes
and Matzeballs to name only two. Exept "gefilte fish" - God knows
where they got that from.

The word "gefilte" fish comes from German and means "stuffed." Some variations on gefilte fish involve stuffing the fish skin with chopped up fish.

Thank you Phoenix for the info.
Yes "gefilte" comes originally from the German "gefuellt"
however, I don't know of any true german dish thas has
filled fish. Do you Walter?

Haha, Matzah is also called jewish Penicillin Mr. Green

I like that and "knaydelach" = dumpling.

Great website Phoenix!
