12726. Magoseph - 12/15/2004 10:10:31 PM A very interesting conversation, concerned dear, thank you. I hope that you continue it.
Ali, I have a picture for you in The Good Life.
I have received a Christmas package from my brother and his wife-this time, papillotes, a fougasse, and a foulard en cachemire. 12727. wonkers2 - 12/15/2004 10:15:00 PM From my experience in Michigan and DC, my impression is most government employees are Democrats with a few moderate Republicans. 12728. judithathome - 12/15/2004 10:23:02 PM Well, damn..I'm getting a cold and I have tickets to a play tomorrow night. 12729. thoughtful - 12/15/2004 10:52:24 PM take cold-eeze...it has zinc in it and is known to significantly reduce the severity and length of colds...a real immune-system booster.
suck one lozenge every 2hrs. Not all zinc lozenges are known to help as they have other ingredients which counteract the zinc activity....cold-eeze has studies backing up its efficacy. 12730. alistairConnor - 12/15/2004 10:55:35 PM A fougasse indeed! That was daring.
I hope it was still in working order. (i.e. edible) 12731. Max Macks - 12/15/2004 10:55:49 PM Those Swiss cough drops
dont have the name in front of me , are also
good..Riccola or something like that...
What play do yo have have tickets for Judith. 12732. alistairConnor - 12/15/2004 10:56:35 PM Just a bit of amateur philology -- I would be very surprised if "fougasse" wasn't closely related to "foccacio". 12733. Max Macks - 12/15/2004 11:11:57 PM alistair,
;please enlighten me-- who is the BIG CHEESE
in The Mote nowadays? 12734. Ms. No - 12/15/2004 11:29:44 PM Juditha,
When my stepdad was sick over the holiday he was only in bed for one day --- he ate lots of almonds (high in zinc) and dried apricots. The boost seemed to do him well. 12735. alistairConnor - 12/15/2004 11:42:22 PM Max,
Wabbit is Da Man --
She always has been. 12736. judithathome - 12/15/2004 11:51:32 PM Max, it's called Comic Potential (I think) and is about a futuristic TV comedy writer who hires a robot to star in his program. It's by Alan Ayckbourn. 12737. judithathome - 12/15/2004 11:52:01 PM sorry.... 12738. Magoseph - 12/16/2004 12:58:48 AM Ali, la fougasse est un peu escagacée (comme on dit dans le midi), ausi plutôt rassie mais très bonne quand même. On l'a déjà mangée et maintenant Flexy s'apprête à allumer un des cigares cubains que Jeannot lui a envoyés, juste pour l'odeur, dit-il--il ne fume pas. J'ai immediatement envoyé les chocolats à mes fils de peur de les manger tous.
12739. Magoseph - 12/16/2004 12:59:31 AM Excuse my French, folks! 12740. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 12/16/2004 3:23:07 AM No excuses necessary -- I'm duly impressed, le big time! 12741. thoughtful - 12/16/2004 3:54:11 PM mags, qu'est-ce que c'est, "escagacée" et "rassie"?
Je comprende tout le reste. 12742. PsychProf - 12/16/2004 4:33:29 PM I have added permanent large letter links to The Mote on the RI index page as well as all thread pages. 12743. PsychProf - 12/16/2004 4:34:11 PM Damn....I am busy and keep placing posts in the wrong place. Sorry. 12744. alistairconnor - 12/16/2004 4:41:52 PM "rassie" is stale...
"escagacée" is Suthun dialect, I won't touch it. 12745. Magoseph - 12/16/2004 4:43:15 PM In the context I used the first term, it means the fougasse was a little damaged. As for the second term, it means the fougasse was stale. I'm not certain that I spelled that one correctly since we say pain rassis for stale bread.
On my way to the hairdresser now, I'll see you later, thoughtful.
