May-17-11 | | Travis Bickle: <I'm afraid I'm trying to "put down" my putting down days. I'm a little tired of shoving my foot up my mouth so frequently that I'm forced to post lengthy public apologies three times a week. I'm trying to cut down.> Here's a song for you Jess. ; PPolicy Of Truth - Depeche Mode

 | | jessicafischerqueen: <Travis> thanks for that important TOP SECRET message! I had to Google the lyrics to decode the full message. QUESTION: Did all 80s bands have the same male lead singer? Or was there a special filter that made them all sound exactly like the guy from <Psychodelic Furs>? |

May-17-11 | | fab4: < jessicafischerqueen: <Travis> that's from "Her Satanic Majesty Request" right?
Who is playing the piano? Not Brian Jones he's already been kicked out. Is it Billy Preston?>
Anyone answered you on this ?!
I'm pretty certain Jones was involved in 'Satanic Majesties Request'.. Lose your deams and you will lose your mind. ... In life unkind. |
|
May-17-11 | | Travis Bickle: Brian Jones did work on Her Royal Majesty's Satanic Request. It seems even though Brian Jones told Mick Jagger that it would never work Mick was steadfast on putting out a reply to The Beatles SGT Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band. Jones was right Her Majesty's was a failure with a few good songs on it. |

 | | jessicafischerqueen: <fab4> thanks for that info on Brian Jones= I'm happy to hear that. <Travis> I have to disagree with Brian- I love Satanic Majesty. I downloaded it and I play it all the time now. It's no <Sgt Pepper>, but neither is anything else. I like psychodelic music. |

May-17-11 | | Boomie: <jessicafischerqueen: On a rare serious note, your "custom car horn" idea is so good I wonder why it hasn't been done.
I assume there must be strict laws against it all over the world? I'd want my car horn to be "Ride of the Valkyries."> Yeah. It scares the hell out of the gooks. |
|

 | | jessicafischerqueen: Correct Derogatory Term Dept, Special Film Quotations Division: "slopes"
not "gooks"
Interestingly, "gook" is one of several Korean words that means "people." So "Korea" is "Hangook" which means "people of the Han." America is "Megook" which means "people of the Me."
Actually it doesn't mean that, it only means that if you combine Korean and English together. It's a fact!
(really it is, unlike the other "it's a fact" I posted over at Annie's house today) |

May-17-11 | | Boomie: <jessicafischerqueen: Correct Derogatory Term Dept> Ya? Well, Charlie don't surf! |

May-18-11 | | Travis Bickle: Hey Jess do you think they will ever change my avatar, or do I have to contact them? |
|
May-18-11 | | dakgootje: <So "Korea" is "Hangook" which means "people of the Han."> Interesting, as I thought the Chinese generally identified themselves with the Han as well. Perhaps it is just like when a favorite uncle has died - and afterwards everyone claims to have been his favorite cousin/niece/pet. |
|
May-18-11
 | | jessicafischerqueen: <Dak gook je> (In ancient Dutch, this means "Yes I am Dutchman, ja? You have a problem with that?) Spot on as usual- Korea was a satellite of the great Han Dynasty of the great country we now call <Joong-gook>. Well some call it China I suppose. But not us Koreans. |

May-18-11 | | messachess: <"I'm trying to cut down.">--Don't do it Jess!! And don't apologize. Maybe be more circumspect. (Does that old English word imply circling around the looking??) So, just circle around your looking (?!!?) and then, just be yourself. My dear <jessicafischerqueen> you are royalty, and don't ever forget it. you have to live up to your icon, as do we all. (Now that's a little scary.) Ignore your critics. Full speed ahead. That's why we have ignore lists. So what if you never see any comments by anyone other than me (your faithful slave), and the doggy one. It's like this: we're dying of boredom here. The game pages are sorely missing the spice that only you ever provided. So, borrow one of those steel suits from Joan, and steel yourself. Get back into the fray. Wield sword and cudgel, and slay the...--sorry that's the limit of my word-smithing. You get the idea. Please! Jess. Please! |

 | | jessicafischerqueen: <messachess> ok I will make some comments on the live games pages. However, I can't be insulting perfectly acceptable people at the website for no good reason any longer. I say this having just done it less than a week ago.
Again.
Having "no leg to stand on" gets tiring after a while. Also I'm choked because I bet all of my chessbucks on Kamsky to win. Now I will cheer for <Alexander Drawchuk>. |
|
May-18-11 | | dakgootje: Da, I had a lot of yesses in my name. Presumably I should become a yes-man - and fix the world. Ahhh suppose it must be great if you're great at learning new languages and are fluent in, say, 6 of them. Although there probably isn't much money to be made in the interpreter-business. ;) |
|
May-18-11 | | Boomie: <dakgootje: <So "Korea" is "Hangook" which means "people of the Han.">
Interesting, as I thought the Chinese generally identified themselves with the Han as well.> Perhaps it's because they all live Han to mouth. |
|
May-18-11
 | | jessicafischerqueen: <Dak> I was just reading about a fellow who was fluent in 16 languages but I can't remember who- and it was just yesterday. Or possibly today. What a terrible memory it was a chess master too.
Can anyone help? |
|
May-18-11
 | | jessicafischerqueen: <Boomie> interesting- Seoul is located at the mouth of the Han River. So I believe the correct phrase would be "mouth to Han"? |
|
May-18-11 | | dakgootje: Consider my mind blown.
*poof* |
|
May-18-11 | | Boomie: <jessicafischerqueen: <Boomie> interesting- Seoul is located at the mouth of the Han River.
So I believe the correct phrase would be "mouth to Han"?> So that's where Lucas found Han Seoulo? |
