“If you hear no evil and speak no evil, you’ll never be invited to a party.” O.W.
My Chinese roommate in college told me that sneezes differ in sound due to cultural differences. She said that Chinese sneezes were not the same as loud American sneezes. I haven’t done an extensive anthropologic study of that, but it is kinda interesting. The kind of study you used to be able to get a cushy goverment grant for, back in the old days.
Snarky, you’re Wilde-esque today. Its making me verklempt.
gesund = healthy
gesundheit = health
MM, if it walks like a duck and it talks like a duck….
“Anyone suffer from loud sneeze disease?”
bxgrl, my dad used to do that! And when he blew his nose, I have a feeling there were captains of boats in the harbor miles away looking to spot an oncoming barge.
All pubic imposition of drag is a religion in my book.
No, I used the f@%k word. There is a difference. Your eyes going bad, Dave? 🙂
If I recall “gesund” is health in German and gesundheit is basically “to your health” or some such thing. Haven’t looked it up so could be wrong.
