About James Clerk Maxwell's poem, OESY ...

I don't know, it seems kinda formulaic.

(That's a joke, folks. Maxwell is quite famous for his elegant expression of the fundamentals of electricity and magnetism, as linked above.)

I contributed, too....?

[OESY]

But what is the significance of the green onions?

I was going to say it was to hide our bad breath, but yorkie has furnished a more credible and studied explanation for the leeks.

LOL! Yes, she did.

Hey, weren't you impressed that I learned Welsh just to wish you a Happy Saint David's Day? ;-)

I certainly learned a lot today, not the least of which is that there is a Welsh language. I had no idea.

I met him once. Had us over to his house in Stamford. Played tennis with him
and his wife. He used to play with Ivan Lendl. The formula worked for a while.

I was hoping you hadn't put the curse of Christmases Past on me. (I haven't had time to do my translations homework.) But, the same to you! LOL!

[OESY]

More to the point: Yes, I really am impressed by your language ability and research.

BTW, in your travels, did you ever swing by Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch?

LOL. Not a chance of that. You are one of my favorite 'Amy's Place' people. :-)

Thank you for the clever post, GeeBee.

Happy Share a Smile Day!

Well, it continues to amaze me what Google turns up sometimes. Makes me seem really smart when I post. ;-)

BTW, in your travels, did you ever swing by Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch?

LOL! "....siliogogogoch"?? 'Fraid not, it wouldn't fit on our interary. ;-)

[JustAmy]

Thank you for that cute Windy March Day graphic.

Hope you are feeling better tonight.

[JustAmy]

Ahhh .... almost time for the little bunnies.

Thanks, Jaycee.

[OESY]

Whoops! It's bedtime. See y'all tomorrow!

You don't say. Really??? No.....you are making this up, right? Wait, let me Google it.

Well, what do you know? There really is such a place!

[Mama_Bear]

Good night, OESY. :-)

[Mama_Bear]

"interary"???

Make that itinerary. I think it is time for bed for me too.

[Mama_Bear]

Feeling a little better, thanks. OESY perked me up a bit. Had a little trouble keeping up with his posts though, especially since this cold medicine has slowed me down a bit.
