So, Persian is like Greek, with the Rrrr thing? Very cool. There's an art to correctly pronouncing Greek. It has its own thing going, not weird and phlegmy like Hebrew or Arabic, not jauntily lyrical like Italian, not frankly Latinesque like Spanish and French, not dangerously and smokily guttural like Russian and Romanian...

Hey, now, watch what you say about Russian!

Ciao for now, Entmoot. Man, the Teacup sure has changed so much over the last six months. Radically, completely changed. Ah, well. I'll always emember the golden, lovely, rambunctious and sweet old Teacup days; remember Leroy? Dragazzo and Obnavat? The Skybar? The gardens and the swimming pool, and the artwork everywhere? People ate real food, and drank real drinks, none of this endless cheap doughnuts and stale coffee and whatnot. We had it hooked up! Man, it used to be the bomb...

I know exactly what you mean...it used to be so cool...and now, it's really degenerated...

Yeah what ever happened to:

Huorn · 08-27-2006, 06:29 PM

That was before my time. Huorns don't do dougnuts and stale bread. I remember what happened to me the last time I ate a dougnuty looking thing.

Acalewia · 08-27-2006, 06:37 PM

How you doing, Oakie?

Last Child of Ungoliant · 08-27-2006, 07:26 PM

durinsbane2244 · 08-27-2006, 09:42 PM

well...i STILL have no idea what you're talking about, TB...

trolls' bane · 08-27-2006, 09:47 PM

Why? Didn't say anything confusing.
Oh, you mean the birthday. Nurvi's birthday just passed.

durinsbane2244 · 08-27-2006, 09:48 PM

TB, everything you say is confusing...

It is not! We're not so different. I'm sure neither of us think that elephant ribbons are a proper fashion statement in Nepal on thursday early-but-not-so-early-evenings. After all, no one can buy burlap at this hour, except for a burlap-buyer.

**Nurvingiel** · 08-28-2006, 12:01 AM

Trolls Bane, you are so very cool.

Fortunately, my hippo ribbons are fashionable year-round. I don't like to change clothes.

How's it going in Cali? Fires dying down? Not insanely hot any more?

I heard rumours.

trolls' bane · 08-28-2006, 12:05 AM

Fires and heat? Here!? *looks out window at barren wasteland, smouldering ruins, and pools of melted rock* Naaa!

You mean there's a such thing as *insert any applicable african animal* ribbons? Oh, I was just blathering.

There's one thing about rumors you should always remember. Whatever they say, beleive them like you've never beleived anything else before!

trolls' bane · 08-28-2006, 12:16 AM

Nurvi, sign into MSN if you get a chance.
