![]() "Dudley Henriques" wrote in message news ![]() You are absolutely correct. Sorry for the "fowpah" :-)) A slip or blunder in etiquette, manners, or conduct, is a "faux pas". A "fowpah" is a small, two-wheeled, cartlike utility vehicle pulled by one person, formerly used widely in Tibet. They sound very much alike. :-)) |

They "sound very much alike" I'm told :-)) Sound something like this? "It's almost noon and you haven't started the lawn. Also, the garage needs sweeping. You'll be helping you mother out today by taking your little brother to swimming lessons this afternoon, ...and when you get back from that, you can finish weeding the garden - like you were suppose to do last week, but didn't. Oh, and hey mister, if you can't put my tools away when you're done using them, then I don't want you touching them in the first place! Don't forget to check the oil in the mower --- BEFORE you use it this time! And what's this I hear, from your mother, that you want to take flying lessons? ....Flying lessons? Why don't you fly around here this afternoon, getting your chores done, and maybe we'll talk about it tonight at supper. Flying lessons. Sheez. Next week it will be guitar lessons, No wait, that was last week. Flying lessons." Montblack |
