I am not a poster. I am a crispy critter.

I see, I should have at least spotted that you typed in Scot's Gaelic, that's probably why I didn't recognize any of the words.

It that a book in your toga or are you just glad to see me?

A take off from a very famous line by Mae West.

such as the absence of the present tense

Wouldn't that make it difficult to understand things like now, and today?

You could go Borg, they are actual radical Muslims from out if space who say assimilate or die!

I always thought that the Borg were meant to be a metaphor for socialism!!

I'n OK, the weather is slightly gloomy and misting out here.

California is quiet, must mean a BIG earthquake is about to hit.

It usuall comes during cold misty times by the way.

I should play "Shake It Up" by the Cars to get in the mood out here.

Hi!

[HKMk23]

My first thought is "Cool!"

My second thought is "I wonder who else may be out there in cyberspace with a head-start on this?"

Googled "elven tongue" and got 157,000 results.

I'd say, begin compiling names and email addresses, see who is already involved, who's communicating/collaborating with who, and engage the work from there. Perhaps the first task being to pull everyone together into a common org for the sake of focus and synergy. Next, amass from the various members, a library of sources from everything that has been used, then collaboratively rank these source materials in order of authority. Assemble from these sources as near-complete a lexicon as possible.

This scope of work should be sufficient to engage everyone involved for at least the next two years; perhaps three.

Evening!

[A CA Guy]

Not true, just see what I mean here.

Or just burn a few cars, and call it France.

;-)


I hope you don't have an earth quake.

I have snow, want to trade?

Actually a scroll I believe as books in the form that we now know them weren't around at the time....

So how are you this evening?

It's certainly lost on liberals - they use events of long ago to use as a stick to beat today!!

[HKMk23]

Actually a scroll...

So now comes Nick Dundee, "THAT's no scroll! THIS is a SCROLL!"

[fanfan]

I know.

On our east coast, they seem to think that the government should take care of them because they sent wheat out west in 1931.

[Irish_Thatcherite]

A scroll is cylindrical in shape - it would appear rather misleading stuck down a toga!!

I am fine, thanks for asking!!!!

Actually, here's something I just thought of; scroll rhymes with troll, poetry could come of that!

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Everybody out west should send them a thank you card and fifty cents and tell them, "Now shut up already!"

[Irish_Thatcherite]

Crocodile Dundee an intellectual... hmmm.

[Irish_Thatcherite]

Or in Ireland Sinn Fein/IRA use the Famine as an excuse for terrorism!! (And some Irish-Americans here on FR!)

[fanfan]

LOL.

Good idea!
