Brent, I finally caved about us having them when I lived with a girl from Australia for 4 months. She giggled every time we said the words out, about, house or sorry.. The phrase to learn is "I'm sorry, but I was out of the house about the town wuth my Mom." Which is sneaky, 'cause we spell it "mom" but pronounce it "mum". There will also be a spelling test, so get used to the letter "u", and it's litre, centre, metre etc. Oh, and the last letter of the alphabet is zed. :) There will be others, but it wouldn't be a test if I gave them all away, now would it? :) Once you've passed the test, you can become a card carrying member of the HC.

Generally, I think the lads write stuff that's - --poignant in so many ways-- but also high-energy, or politically aware, or full of wry humor, touchingly emotional, or all of the above and then some. But with both "You Can't Be Too Careful" and "Earthquakes" they're talking about letting go sometimes (Or as Ani would say: not "get their panties all in a twitch!") :) Obviously: "You can't agonize over it, make your mind up and go for it" as well as: "Look at all these [is it tiny?] things botherin' me" are a more relaxed fruvous. :) What do you think? Is it a new theme? Or am I listening to and analyzing them too much? :) I mean, heck, "Present Tense Tureen" certainly focuses on the same theme... but it's about so many other things (like elves) that I think the "go with your gut" theme gets a little lots. Oh, and I'm not implying that this "theme" is taking over... enough with the disclaimers! I'm out. :) donna %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% "ahthOOn SSyng!" I said.

"Great goal, eh?" would be right. But an "eh" would be out of place in the other sentence. "Eh" is used to make a sentence a question, for example, "Nice day, eh?", or for emphasis on a point - "That movie was great, eh". But then, I guess that kinda becomes a question... Oh, I don't know... it just fits!! :) But if you really want bonus points, "Time to pick up the pogey, eh?". Super bonus points if you know what it means! :) Or "There's a sale at Crappy Tire, eh..." that one's a little easier. :) Veronica - -- *************************************************************************** "Never look at the trombones, | Veronica Gruneberg it only encourages them." | Dept. of Biology - Richard Strauss | Queen's University | Kingston, Ontario ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 27 Feb 1999 18:19:24 GMT From: SkyStar117@aol.com Subject: Re: MP3-- help me??
