And, as I said on that thread, applying the "reasonable inferences" approach to the the argument you are presenting, when you claim that Bush lied, but cannot prove that Bush lied, the reasonable inference is that it is you who is lying, not Bush.

I just read the same thing. Thomas, of course, is from Germany and knows only a few colloquialisms.

I have a vision of the Lord wandering the streets of London in perpetual confusion, buying flowers and candy, but never knowing why.

The people sit on the benches and say stuff like, "Here comes that crazy bastard with the flowers and chocolate again."

I believe Thomas was well aware of the double entendre there, nonetheless!!!!!

nimh,

Voltage fluctuation blew my comp's mother board off, and it had to be sent for replacement.

It's Hindi, of course. What did you think it meant? Laughing

Yes I realised it was Hindi ... that was why I didnt have a clue what it meant! But it looked so funny, the combination of random English words into a romantic-sounding flow of foreign sounds...

We do the same a lot in Dutch too. When new things appear that need to be named, we often just adopt the English word that already exists -- but we conjugate it like it's Dutch! So you can get funny stuff like this:

Hee, kan je die file voor me uitprinten? Ik heb 'em gister op die floppy gesaved, daar heb ik je nog over ge-SMSt, weet je nog?

Heh Razz. (OK, floppies (floppy disks) are long gone of course, but you get the drift.)

Not the Flemish, though! They are much more purist about the Dutch language, they diligently make up new Dutch words for every new concept to avoid English loanwords corrupting the purity of the language..

Romance as in mystery. Not romance as in 'line marna.' Laughing

Hindi + English = Hinglish (the most widely spoken language in India.)

I've had the same signature since about my first on A2K. I'll toss it into the mix here.

For some reason, I never get romance correctly. Even at school, teachers used to talk about romantic poems. I was always confused because I never found any expression of love in them.

Well,now,heh Razz

It's too long for a sig, but otherwise ... applause.

This is a dialogue about events and ideas. it is not a contest with winners and losers. None of us is personally responsible for the achievements or failings of the nation he inhabiits, its history or future prospects. We are like passengers on different ships, comparing notes on their different features and attempting to find valid general principles for others. We each have a point of view embedded in our different circumstances and shaped by our iindividual interpretations. The best we can do is to attempt to improve our understanding through dialogue and reasoned disagreement about external factors. Invective and personal attacks - particularly the unjustifiable application of flawed stereotypes to individuals - benefit no one and, instead degrade the process for everyone.
