Alaska Darin Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 Darin, Why is John Kerry still around? When he lost the election, wasn't that the equivalent of a majority of the US telling him to STFU? 227382[/snapback] You're asking why someone who identifies with Ted Kennedy can't deal with reality? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 Darin, I am writing on behalf of an Eagles fan: I am a lifelong Eagles fan, and I just bet my house and my car on the Eagles +7, I am turning to you for guidance, will the Eagles cover? I am so nervous right now its indescriable!! Help!!! Signed, Eagles fan with 1 foot dangling off the Walt Whitman Bridge in Philadelphia 227383[/snapback] If they don't, it'll be because Philly fans have been angering the football Gods even longer than M!@#$s (who didn't care about football until the Pats won their first Super Bowl and still care about it only mildly more than the "Big Dig"). Mortgaged your house? Have you listened to an NFL player speak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotch or Bourbon? 227389[/snapback] I'm not sure what "fiching" is, but I'm always partial to a 12 year old single malt when I'm around decent sized bodies of water. Of course, I'm Irish so a decent sized body of water is defined as "anything larger than an ice cube". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erynthered Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 From where does the phrase "A 'skiff' of snow" originate? The ONLY definition I can find for "skiff" has to do with a small boat. I have searched the entire internet and all search engines. Can you help with the etymology of this word, My Nanook friend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erynthered Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 From Scotland. 227431[/snapback] The term "skiff of snow" comes from the Gaelic word "sgiobhag." It refers to a slight dusting of snow on the ground, and the term is most commonly used in the Nova Scotia area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
