    Fine work!
    What, you cook?
    Nooo wayyy =))
    I have yet to discover my fort, but that only leads me to believe that it is something great, something I haven’t tried before. Maybe… driving a space shuttle? Or flying? We shall see :D

    I hope this doesn’t get me banned, and I mean this sincerely, I am a ManWhore. I cook, I clean, I take care of chores and menial tasks, look after animals, and keep things in general order for my roommates up here in Canada. I openly use that term, though I know it isn’t real, and openly admit to being it. I love my roommates like extended family, so it’s all good for me ;)

    Oh i forgot! about your cooking! My Ukrainian fried treats me to vereniki now and again. His mom seems to be the local famous supplier. Do you like vereniki? if so what are your favorite ingredients?

    You may reply to this comment on the reply link below. Or since you have all my personal data, you could make an apointment and stop by
    or drop it in the mail. The reply link is probably most simple, though not as much wrought with intrigue.

    Well your tummy looks very nicely fit and it was nice to be able to listen to this and admire your lithe, willowy, gastrointestinal casing and discover yet again the confusions created by english and french interrelations.

    oh yea. Forte was the word. I didn’t know it’s background. thanks. I had no idea but definitley had the musical Forte mixed up like everyone else.

    My forte is I am just too damn funny.

    I heard a word that i hadn’t in many years. Can you give me the origin of the word “crud”?

    Well, Marina, if your forte is that you’re a good cook, when we all know you’re a good teacher – and a good looking one as well – then – all I can say is, “take me to heaven, I wanna eat your food right now”.

    I would be interested in the origin of the word “whore”. Sorry for the explicit wording. :-)

    Wow. A lot has been posted since I requested. As requested, Marina, I’d like to know the etymology of the phrase “no holds barred.” I know it means something to the effect of “at maximum performance,” or something of the like, but using an old English word “hold” as a noun is a little nostalgic, don’t you think? Where, exactly did this “no holds barred” phrase originate? I’ve been wondering this for years, literally. :shock:

      “No holds barred” is an easy one. It is from wrestling, where some holds are illegal. In the ancient Olympic sport of pankration, I belive that only eye-gouging was disallowed.
