If a cat removes hair by scratching at an area for too long, does the hair grow back?

[creme_ala_creme78]

yep, am i gonna ace my english final?

[marie]

of course…

… but what does "ace" mean?!? (can´t find it in my dictionary…)

[creme_ala_creme78]

sry, common term here, to ace a final is to pass it w/ flying colors, to make an a, etc.

Yes, I would like to answer a question if you had posted one.

Is 'ace' in 4dictionary.com ?

sry bout that, yes, it is





what should i have for dinner?

[marie]

dinner… maybe "spätzle"…

i always mix up am and pm… which one is in the evening/night? and why don´t you use 1 und 13 instead of 1 pm/am?!?

[Matthew Sweet]

An ace is someone who shot down five enemy planes! It's derived from French referring to the A playing card.

AM has Ante, PM Post in it ... first is before, latter is after 12 ;)

The European 24 hrs system where 3pm is 15:00 is much easier.

[marie]

oh I understand "post" and "ante" (you´ve to get a latin certificate to get the permission to study history in germany) but - I don´t know - I will never get this am/pm - thing…

[creme_ala_creme78]

we call the European 24 hours system military time.....



whats spatzle?

[mazarane]

chocolate chip cookies, unless everyone else is going to make those too....

why do I feel doing something different is a good thing although I think chocolate chip cookies are nicer?

[Anonymous]

because choc. chip cookies are always nice, but something different can bring a little variety into the day

[oceanflower]

I don't have a preference, per se,......but my husbands hair is blonde, so that's my all-around favorite. :wink:

Are you allergic to anything...if so, what?

[mazarane]

pollen (i.e. hayfever) to an extent, though it seems quite specific- it generally only gets me for a couple of weeks each year, and even then not for all that time....think it must be quite specific (of course, it could be wrong and might be something else entirely)

where did you last go swimming?

[oceanflower]

the Severn River

How many languages do you speak?

[mazarane]

[Furnie]

I don't have a clue who that person is so no

who is Kenny Chesney?

[oceanflower]

I don't know.

What should I get my sister-in-law for a wedding gift?

[starrynights48]

I couldn't resist: a Kenny Chesney CD (he's a country singer, guys).

How's your Monday going?

[Furnie]

Terrible, I'm fealing ill and I've had anoying destractions,

Hows your Friday going

[nycteris]

O_o you posted that on a Monday, i must be missing something.

Sorry you're sick :[

My Monday is going ok; i have to clean my house in anticipation of the arrival of my sadistic grandmother, who is one of those people who will call you 'poorly raised', 'messy' and 'careless' ten years from now if she finds anything to be desired today in your cleanup system.

@ the next person: what's the website you spend the most time on?

[Furnie]

I was testing to see if you could see into the future.
And the website I spend most time on it the weebls-stuff forums

Have you seen weeble and bob

[oceanflower]

No.

Do you like Barney the Purple Dinosaur?

[Furnie]

I used to :oops: (when I was about 3) but I don't any more.

Do you think You should be able to attack people who break into your house?

[starrynights48]

I used to :oops: (when I was about 3) but I don't any more.

Do you think You should be able to attack people who break into your house?

Most definitely, considering it's your private property. In southern Florida (where I'm from), before residential communities were popping up everywhere, it was common to see a tresspassing sign in the yard (some were just warning you that was private property; some actually warned that you will get shot if you trespass).

What is your worst habit?

[orenzi]

procrastinating

what's your best habit?

[oceanflower]

Never letting the day go by without saying "I love you" to my husband and each of my children (all 5 of 'em!).

Who was the last person to whom you said "I love you"?

[creme_ala_creme78]

my best friend, the only one thats always been there for me




when was the last time you had a really good laugh?

[orenzi]

i don't remember (what does this say about me?.. im forgetful)


what do you look for first in a person when u meet them for the first time?

[oceanflower]

I always notice if a person is looking me in the eye when they are speaking to me, and if they are genuinely friendly.

Do you look a person in the eye when you speak to them?

[orenzi]

yes, unless i have a crush on that person. hehe..

what do you like most about this forum?

[oceanflower]

The intelligence of the users.

Do you always remember your dreams?

[orenzi]

not always.

do you like the smileys in this forum?

[oceanflower]

I do.

What temperature is it outside?

[starrynights48]

A nice, steamy 77 degrees with 94% humidity. Yum!

What's your favorite genre?

[oceanflower]

mystery

Who's your favorite author?

[Moonlight]

Pearl S. Buck

What's your favorite thing about the opposite sex? (physical features)

[eflo]

Well, since I'm male, I'm answering from that perspective. The physical features I like most about the opposite sex are smile, butt, and eyes. :D

Where would you most like to travel?

[oceanflower]

Assisi, Italy

What should I do about this headache I've got?

[eflo]

Whatever you do, don't read! Reading never helps my headaches!

What do you like on your pizza?

[oceanflower]

sausage and pineapple

Do you think I'm stupid to be staring into the computer screen and listening to Pearl Jam when I have this headache? (Be honest, now....I can take it. :wink: )

[eflo]

Well, as long as the computer screen isn't flickering so much that you can notice it, then no, I don't think you're stupid for looking at the computer screen. As far as Pearl Jam goes, I'm going to say no to that one too. Music can be very relaxing for some, and if Pearl Jam is it, then crank it up! :)

While we're on that topic, is it the music or the lyrics that make a song good? [And if you can, give me an example 8)].

[oceanflower]

Hmmm...I'd have to say the two are inseperable. For instance, with Pearl Jam, the lyrics are for the most part cryptic, but the music provides the interpretation. In other words, one can hear the meaning of the words in the music.

Does that make any sense?

[eflo]

Good answer. Definitely makes sense. There are parts of some songs where I have a "lyrics" moment or a "music" moment though.

I haven't noticed before, but is your avatar from Pearl Jam's Yield CD? In particular, "Given to Fly"?

For now, I'm off to bed. Thanks for chatting tonight. :D

[oceanflower]

Yep, You're right! :) (Nighty-night!)

Who's the nicest person you know?

[eflo]

Yep, You're right! :) (Nighty-night!)

Who's the nicest person you know?

Even though she drives me nuts sometimes, the nicest and most selfless person in the world is my mother. I'd like to reciprocate that question back to you.

What motivates you?

[oceanflower]

(the nicest person I know is my dad. and for the same reason you say about your mom: he's selfless. He's also very friendly and non-judgemental.)

What motiovates me? I guess I'd have to say that love motivates me. Sounds corny, but when I think of why I do most things I do, it's because I'm caring about someone.

[oceanflower]

Oops...I forgot to ask a question. :D

Who has had the biggest positive influence on your life?

[eflo]

(the nicest person I know is my dad. and for the same reason you say about your mom: he's selfless. He's also very friendly and non-judgemental.)

What motiovates me? I guess I'd have to say that love motivates me. Sounds corny, but when I think of why I do most things I do, it's because I'm caring about someone.

And that motivation from love sounds like it makes you a very selfless person as well. Doing something for others. Like donating blood.

Biggest positive influence? That's a stumper....
Could it be the text from a book? A quotation I mentioned from the book Foe in another thread has had a positive influence on me...always reminds me not to speak for others. Which is hard to do. Somebody says something, and naturally, you like to "translate" it into your own words/experience, when it might not necessarily be the same thing.

Could it be a dead person? Definitely Ghandi and Martin Luther King, Jr. Passive Resistance teaches me not to get upset.

Living person? I don't want to admit it, but I'd have to put the vote in for my mother again. I tell myself that I'm nothing like her, and in many ways I am not, but at the same time, she has had a tremendous positive influence on my life?

Since I went off on another tangent, my question is this: If you could meet any person, living or dead, who would it be? [and if you like, a brief reason why].

[oceanflower]

The first person that popped into my mind is the Dalai Lama. I'd like to ask him how to be peaceful in an unpeaceful world. I'd also like to meet Mother Theresa, because she was the embodiment of selfless love.

What goal(s) in life do you pursue?

[eflo]

Right now, my goals are to find a job! I took the weekend off and did a lot of reading (and watched the Olympics), but toorrow, I'm really going to hit the job search hard again!

Have you been watching much of the Olympics this weekend?

[oceanflower]

No, very little.

What is your favorite season of the year?

[eflo]

It's a tough call between autumn and spring. Both aren't too hot, and not freezing cold. In the end, I choose fall..er, autumn. Great weather for pants of shorts.

Anyone know why fall/autumn is the only season that can referred to by different names? Now I have something to go searching on the internet for.

[oceanflower]

I'm going to guess ('cause I'm feeling too lazy to research it) that "fall" is just a "pet name" for autumn, and that "fall" refers to the falling leaves.

Would you rather swim in the ocean or ski in the mountains?

[eflo]

Ski in the mountains! Every winter (for the past two winters, I should say), I have gone with some friends to Wisp, in West West Maryland. I've probably lost some appreciation swimming in the ocean because I live in Virginia Beach and the ocean is at my feet.

If you had a million dollars, how do you think you would spend it?

[starrynights48]

I'd buy a house (complete with lush furnishings!), a new car, and some pets. A whole new wardrobe. Dump some in savings, do some traveling, live a little.

Anyway.

What's your favorite type of pet? Cat, dog, bird, etc?

[mazarane]

humans make good pets :twisted:

what's your favourite kind of landscape?

[Moonlight]

lush, green meadows with tons of brightly colored wildflowers and maybe a huge oak tree with low gnarled branches that you could climb :D

What's better: Captain Crunch or Cocoa Puffs?

[eflo]

Captain Crunch!

Would you agree or disagree? 8)

[mazarane]

I almost never agree :wink:

With respect to the cereals, I have never heard of either, but I'd go for Captain Crunch- I'm pretty sure I wouldn't think much of Cocoa Puffs; and 'Crunch' might have potential.

Can you tell the difference between UHT (long-life) and normal milk (or fresh-from the cow milk, come to that)?

[Moonlight]

I hate milk. It's skanky tasting. The only kind I like is this stuff called Promised Land milk. It comes in glass bottles and it tastes like milkshakes cause it's really thick and sweet. I only drink the chocolate kind though, and not very often.

If you were to write a book what type would it be? (biography, autobiography, fiction, political, a book of poems, etc.)

[oceanflower]

biography - I love to do research : it's literary detective work.

What are you going to do when you sign out of this forum today (or tonight)?

[mazarane]

*deletes today as appropriate* probably going to read an article about sailing on the west coast of the British Isles, and then go and roost :D

What else do you regularly look at on the internet (e-mail aside)?

[oceanflower]

www.freetibet.org
www.savetibet.org
www.amnesty.org (Amnesty International)
www.artrepublic.com
www.us.imdb.com (Internet Movie Database)
www.murmurs.com (R.E.M.)

********************************

Do you prefer to stay home and watch a DVD in the comfort of your home; or to go to the movie theater to see a moie?

[Rain]

DVD at home. No brainer.

If there was a fire in your home and you could save one thing (aside from animal companions, as I am assuming they would come first--they definitely should!) what would it be?

[creme_ala_creme78]

my cds, they help me cope with everything, ive learned this lesson very very well over the summer




what are your plans for the night?

[oceanflower]

I had a very, very stressful week, so my plans for today are: no plans at all!! I'm loving it. It's 11:42 pm, and after I cruise around here I'm going to watch a movie I rented ...ALTHOUGH, thanks to JACKIE :evil: I'm going to go searching the web for a "Christmas Story" t-shirt. :wink:


Where's a good place to find a t-shirt like that on the web?

[creme_ala_creme78]

hot topic has a website....its not hard to find, i think its www.hottopic.com...not sure tho

[oceanflower]

hot topic has a website....its not hard to find, i think its www.hottopic.com...not sure tho

Thank you..I'll have a look.

And your question is.....?

[Moonlight]

My question is

Do you prefer white gold or yellow gold or sliver?

[oceanflower]

yellow gold

Do you enjoy a day when it rains?

[eflo]

Not lately. All the rain here in Virginia Beach is messing up all the hard work I'm doing with the pool. It's messing up the chemical balance! :x And even when I'm not doing the pool, rainy days smell like worms. I do like thunderstorms though...

Do you have any exciting vacation(s) planned in the near future?

[starrynights48]

I'm going to New York City for New Year's with my boyfriend and his family!

What's your favorite fast food place?

[mazarane]

erm....don't go to many...probably Pizza Hut, partly because it makes me think of going sailing :wink:

what's your favourite restaurant?

[incka]

Um. Can't think. There's a nice vegetarian one in a book shop in York. The Brewers Fair (I think that's it's name) is good too.


Dried oinion bits or breadcrumbs/crutons?

[mazarane]

definitely croutons

where does the forum clock live?

[incka]

Forum clock live? Is the forum clock alive? Heh Heh. It lives in GMT time zone if that's what your talking about. If your talking about where the clock script is, as in where is the site phyically it's in either Atlanta, Georgia or somewhere in California. I'm not sure 100%.


Can you write a paragraph in Terry Prachet style about the forum clock personifing it, and if so, can you write the paragraph here?

[mazarane]

Erm....tries to think of any Pratchett personification of an inanimate object...ah well, here goes.....

focus..........
here is Great A'Tuin- ship of the galaxies, eater of stars.

Technically in space, no-one can hear you scream, but this is not always the case. When you leave the phone off the hook, everyone will hear you scream as your phone bill comes in. But all there is to be heard now is a faint ticking
Listen to the tocking....
focus..........

This is the giant tower of Incka Limited.
focus......

This is where the forum clock maintains its rule. It is rare for such a thing to exist without belief, but the clock survives on the technicality known as Murphy's Law. If you are the only person on the board, time will pass slowly. If it is packed, you will be unable to keep up. And strange variations in time can play havoc with touch-typing. In such a way an unregarded clock can maintain life. Outside, the small gods blow and tumble in the wind.....


Could you next write a paragraph in the style of your chosen author continuing the story of the forum clock?

[Moonlight]

No. No, I can't because I lack the talent. You did a wonderful job though :D

What's your favorite sport?

[eflo]

I really enjoy playing soccer, but I think I enjoy watching football best.

What is the craziest thing you did today?

[incka]

Within 5 minutes of waking up was on the internet.

World Atlas or Atlas Of World History?

[creme_ala_creme78]

atlas of world history






do you have any pets?

[Moonlight]

I have nine. Three dogs (a chocolate lab named Jingle, a pomeranian named Boo-boo Honey, and a shitzu that was supposed to be named Rolie but everyone calls him the baby), two cats in the house(Trinity and Tinker), a guinea pig named Elektra, a bird named Tweety, and two cats that live outside named Demon and Brigit. I still crave a tarantula and a goldfish.

If you had a goldfish, what would you name it?

[eflo]

You have a lot of pets... :shock: Not a bad thing though. Pets are great companions! And it looks like your craving for a Goldfish is almost ended?

I would name it Cleo [from Pinocchio].


Is the glass half-empty or half-full?

[oceanflower]

half-full

Who is your favorite artist?

[incka]

Artist as in painter/drawer or artist as in any form of art including literature?


If you mean painter/drawer I don't have one. Why? Because we haven't had any art-history lessons in art classes at school. I like the person who makes those drawings where stairs in a square all look like they are going upwards, Dali or someone I think.


Would you prefer to live now, 1000 years ago or 1000 years in the future?

[starrynights48]

This isn't a question but I think you mean Escher. Go to the Google image search, type in "Escher" and see if that's your guy.

[incka]

Yep, it's Escher.

[starrynights48]

Yep, it's Escher.

Haha, glad to see my public school education is paying off!

:lol:

[aquila]

Great ... Escher's dutch, we have a whole museum of him. There's even a room that looks okay when you enter but when you walk to the other side you notice the ceilings coming down! 8)

If you were forced to fight on either the communist side or the fascist side in WWII ... which side would it be?

[incka]

I would say both sides are evil, but the communist side did eventually fall a few decades later, but I think the facist side saw less losses... This is hard... Both evil. Both large chance of death. Um... I'll go for communist because I prefer the Russian language.

Answer my question that is on an above post.

[oceanflower]

Now, definitely.

Would you like to live forever (i.e. 'til the world ends, however that would be) if you could do so in complete health, both mental and physical?

[Moonlight]

No. I couldn't handle seeing everyone I love die, and seeing what I know the world will turn into.

Apples or bananas?

[eflo]

Apples.

(American) Football or (European) Football :?:

[follow_me_around]

you should ask a question for the next person to answer...right?


Cheers

[oceanflower]

apples...Granny Smith, to be exact.

Are you glad that summer is ending?

[oceanflower]

eflo...we did it again!! :lol: I'm going to go have a snack and let you get ahead of me. :wink:

[eflo]

eflo...we did it again!! :lol: I'm going to go have a snack and let you get ahead of me. :wink:

What did we do? Unless you're talking about getting mixed up or something. Looks like you have a question to be answered and somebody hasn't yet answered mine. Heh.

And to answer your question Flow, yes, you ask a question for the "next person" to answer. Anything at all.

Well, I'm off to bed to do some reading oceanflower, so I won't be in the way. Enjoy your snack. I don't want to ask what you're having because that'll be another question...but if you're willing to share. :wink: :wink:

You and I posted at the same time at "The Person Above You"...then we did it again here right away. :lol:

The answer to the snack question : Hershey Kisses filled with caramel...I'm addicted.

My question for the next person:

What is your addiction?

[Moonlight]

I am addicted to sweet tea and peanut butter and honey sandwiches.

Were you/are you involved in any after school clubs while in high school?

[creme_ala_creme78]

im in speech and debate, ballet, tap, band, theatre,...






what should i eat right now?

[oceanflower]

An apple dipped in caramel.

Which vegetable would you rather die that eat?

[follow_me_around]

egg plant...(hope that's the correct name)

what do u hate most?


Cheers

[Moonlight]

I hate people that won't shut up when they have nothing intelligent to add to a conversation. I'm a firm believer of "If you don't have anything meaningful to say, don't say anything at all."
I also hate the fact that I always have to say exactly what I mean, but I can never think of the right words.


How late do you normally stay upat night, and when do you wake up in the morning?

[Rain]

Usually up until 12-1 am. Usally up again at 6:45-8:45 depending when my shift starts.


Do you like asparagus and, if so, what do you think is the best way to serve it?

If you were to have a grilled cheese sandwich and a bowl of chicken noodle soup, would you dip the sandwich in the soup? (It tastes really great together.)

[Furnie]

Nope because it would get all the chese sogy, I only like it with butter.

IF you hated me would you tell me

[eflo]

Absolutely. Though...I don't think there's anybody that I hate. Hate is a pretty strong word. Either I get to know that particular person, in which case I can't say I hate them, because obviously I have some interest in them. Or..I don't give them a fair chance...and then how can I say I hate that person if I haven't given them a fair shot at friendship?

I think I'm getting old...the older you get the more you realize that you don't dislike people, you just don't get along with them. (Shakespeare said it best: All the world's a stage and all the men and women merely players...)

what name you hate most?

Cheers

[Rain]

I cannot mention the name I hate most. Why? Because it was the name I was given at birth, the name I grew up with, the name that never fit and felt like an itchy sweater on me all of the time.

Well, I finally legally changed it. Out with the old. Believe it or not, my name is truly and legally Rain. I love my name now. I am Rain. That is me. I was never that other name.

So I cannot mention the name. I cannot bring myself to say it aloud or even type it for I hate it that much. I will never tell it. Maybe if you email me and ask nicely and swear you will never repeat it, say it aloud or type it, I will give you a hint as to what it is, but maybe, even then, I won't.

So what beverage are you drinking right now? If not drinking a beverage, what is the last beverage you consumed? Who doesn't love a refreshing beverage? (The last question is merely rhetorical--shtick I stole from Letterman.)

They say it's impossible to do that, but she proved 'them' wrong, whoever sits in a room and comes up with these things. But aside from a reference to her long tongue, it's also a hint at her name.

What was your favourite book as a little kid?

[Moonlight]

Not my question:
Have you ever read Jean Plaidy carpricorn? She writes historical fiction mainly in Anne's time period, and mostly on Henry VIII's wives. The Lady in the Tower is Anne's story, and The Rose Without a Thorn is her cousin Catherine's. Phillipa Gregory wrote a book called The Other Boleyn Girl about Mary Boleyn's affair with Henry VIII shortly before Anne married him. It was over 600 pages long, but very simple words, so it was easy to read.

To answer your question: My favorite book was The Diggingest Dog.

To participate in, I like to square-dance. To watch, I love ballet...I danced it, too, many moons ago. :)

Do you like to vacuum?

Yes I have read some of Jean Plaidy's books and I enjoyed The Lady in the Tower. I'd be interested in reading The Rose Without a Thorn because I've heard of Catherine and also The Other Boleyn Girl seems like an interesting read. The one wife I have no interest in reading about is Jane Seymour, not quite sure why maybe because she came right after my favourite Anne Boleyn and replaced her... :?

Now to finally answer the question :D - Square Dancing is a type of folk dance- An American country dance in which set of 4 couples form squares- very vibrant and exciting :)



Which fictional character do you feel you can relate to most?

[Moonlight]

That is an extremly hard question. I relate to many different charcters for different reasons...A lot of the characters I relate to I'm not very fond of... I would have to say the main character of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. She's around my age, has many similar character traits... Through the whole story I just felt oddly connected to her.

Do you like to shop?

[oceanflower]

I like to shop...but I'm not crazy about grocery shopping.

To elaborate on the square-dancing defintion:
Square-dancing is an American traditional country dance. Nowadays the dances are held in barns, or the room is decorated like a barn for atmosphere...you can dress up in overalls or country-style skirts and blouses i f you want to...put on a straw hat or cowboy hat if you want to. Everyone forms up into "squares" of four people...two guys and two gals. The fiddler begins to play some upbeat country music, and the caller begins to call out instructions in time with the music, such as "bow to the lady on your right" or "grab your partner and dosi-do" ..there's a million different calls he can make,and everyone does what he says. A good caller knows which steps to put together to make a really good dance, and the participants know all of the jargon he uses. If you don't understand what "allemande left with a left allemande" means, then you'll screw up the square. The caller can even have all of the squares of people dancing as a whole, then get them back into their individual squares. It's realy a lot of fun.

So here's my question: Does any of that make sense? :shock:

[Moonlight]

Somewhat.

Do you know how to tango?

When you are in an elevator ("lift" ) with a stranger, do you stare straight ahead and say nothing, or do you say something to break the silence?

[Moonlight]

I'm a very friendly person, and I'm from the South (everyone here says hello even if you're a stranger, only tourists are rude enough not to say hey back), so I always say hello and start a conversation. Unless of course they look terribly upset and like they don't want to be bothered.
