Phonetically speaking, I’m tryïng to determine what the “e” could do to the “b” that would be analogous to how it turns the “s” into an “sh.” “By” is the easy answer (“Shawn Byawn”).

“Uh, yeah, well, whenever you notice something like that… a [jazz-fusion] wizard did it.”

Star Trek was pitched as “Wagon Train to the stars,” but I never bought it. Too military and organized. And too technical. Perhaps if I’d never seen Firefly, the comparison’d be easiër to make…

I can sort of see what mattiecramz means, tho. Like, if a flawed, later Besson movie dœsn’t allow you to overlook its flaws, you might then be unable t’ignore the same tendancies in a movie where you earliër could get past them.

Movie titles should be italicized; plays are in quotation marks.

I am a people and I loved both of those movies!

“…’cuz ‘bich’ is Latin for ‘generosity’!”

He dœs have a car, but in truth, I didn’t get very far…

With no song about croquet!

Whether this is a deliberate attempt to counteract that whole “lady doctor”/“girl cop” parlance, or a symptom of that trend’s disappearance, I approve.

What got me was that Einstein was about twenty or thirty years older than he was in 1942. He had short hair, no wrinkles, and a dark mustache at the time. He looked like this photo, labeled “Professor Albert Einstein 1942”, in fact. I imagine they made this mistake on purpose, because people are most familiär with…

Seafood in a Tex-Meg setting: lime
Pork: apple(sauce)
Suckling pig: apple
Ham: pineapple (and maraschino cherries!)
Lamb: mint jelly
Turkey: cranberry
Duck: orange (or, in one case, blueberries!)

One of the best I’ve had was “the pickler,” with pickled beets, kim chi, and, strangely, not pickles.

Tuna and corn were both common in France as well. Not peas tho, altho a fried egg right in the center was not unusuäl.

Just on the off-chance that you’re asking a sincere question and noöne is noticing:

And in your understanding, the primary genetic force behind evolution is… not mutation?

I’m 5'10" and pudgy! Our powers combined, we are…

I really looked carefully to see if you were mocking me for spelling it wrong, but no, you’re just saying it’s a funny name, and that’s true.

I was so excyted to find it in Montreäl; I’ven’t yet figured out what the connexion is, but it’s the same logo. When the Canadiän one lists its other branches, tho, it dœsn’t include the French ones, but their “about us” page dœs mention the connexion, altho only historically.

I have a fondue (yes, I know it’s pretty much Swiss, but the word is French) party every Bastille Day, and to up the French authenticity, I bought a sixpack of 1664 and 1664 Blanc every year. Last year I even made a 1664 fondue that was pretty good, altho obviöusly (as good as ’tis to drink), a 1664 Blanc fondue’d be…
