Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Don't say that! I need my daily dose of cute for a while, please? That really heavy storyline, plus my really heavy RL ordeals, I need some cute to get back on track.DilyV wrote:Castela is way cute... I think Kath is going to be pleased. The twins are interesting... and typical of most sets of twins... one barely talks and the other has diarrhea of the mouth...
Can't help but wonder what kind of therapy Jet and Monica are going through about now...
Let me fix that. It's L'etoile du Nord(My baby sister was a French Major, and my baby brother a French Minor(*rimshot*), so they never let me even joke incorrectly(though mine is more roundabout by the way of Latin, so it's a bit more stilted.).jwhouk wrote:OldManBill wrote:As these two new ladies are still in school-I'm assuming High School, from their style of speaking-should we assume that they're Ursa Minors?

If that's the case, of course, then it wouldn't be surprising they're in Minnesota. After all, the state motto is "Etoile du la Nord" (Star of the North).

Hopefully - for next week - we continue the lighthearted theme . The publisher stands behind these comments - in hopes that they will hide him from flying gobs of snicker-snee that currently are flying around edited one time - stupid fingers...

And as far as the names it occurred to me that the girls are sharing 2 names Bernadette and Nadine, mixing them so they can always be part of each other.

While good, I didn't think Jalopies was as good as Flying Machines. But still good. (All three of these are in my dvd collection, of course) And The Great Race - ya gotta love a movie where the first half-hour or so is a live-action Coyote-Roadrunner cartoon......Fairportfan wrote:Add in "Those Daring Young Men in their Jaunty Jalopies".Atomic wrote:An excellent choice for a Double Feature!

Isn't California called "The Bear State"? That used to be Arkansas' motto, 'fore they kilt off purt near all ahr dang bahr...I mean, before they killed off almost all our bears...heh....Julie wrote:Party tricks are the best!
Nadine is also a common(ish) name...at least in the South.Neveko wrote:Hehe. Berdine and Nadette are not names that I can tell (not in a traditional way, anyway), but Bernadette and Bernadine are.And actually, Berdine is listed on a baby-names website as a possible female name. It's apparently a short form of Bernardine (like Chris is the short form of Christopher I guess). Nadette wasn't on that site's list...but that doesn't mean someone hasn't given a girl that name before. It just feels weird that they're from out west with names like those. I'd expect names like that from the more hillbilly areas of the US.

There was, i believe, a California "Bear Republic", whence cometh the "Bear Flag"
