  1. https://www.dictionary.com/browse/augur-well-for I was watching a British show ("Coronation Street") and the word "augur" was used twice. I wonder how many Americans would know it means? Few I think. I was watching some other show where the word "peripatetic" was said. I doubt if 1 American in a 100 would know what it meant. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/peripatetic I once referred to a female friend's boyfriend as her "beau". She asked me what it meant.
  2. :p:p:p:p

  4. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_Winchester On L&O:SVU Philip Winchester plays ADA Peter Stone. The actor is 37yo. On the recent episode he picks up a young woman in a bar. Then we see them making out in the back of a car which is parked outside her building. He stops and tells her that he is only using her. She doesn't mind. She tells him that although he is old it is only a two floor walk up. OLD AT 37!!!

  6. I find it interesting that milk in Spanish - la leche - is feminine while in French - le lait - it is masculine.
  7. I'm a Belami fan. I like to see how they do.
  8. That's because in Latin MANUS is not second declension masculine but fourth declension feminine.
  9. I feel I can be more comfortable around gay people. Be more myself.

    Females don't seem to like Star Trek. I once asked a female friend if she want to go with me to a ST movie and she said no. On the other hand a different female friend invited me to go see a new "Friday the 13th" movie with her. I did.

    Years ago one Friday night I went to the cinema to see a new Star Trek movie. The place was packed. All males. Almost all wore a baseball cap. Who were these people? It was Friday night so Orthodox Jews would not be out. They weren't turbans so they couldn't be Sikhs. So else would have their heads covered? I remember seeing some old b&w show. One guy forgot to remove his hat indoors. Another asked him whether he had a cold. He took the hint and removed his hat. I lived a mile from work. I often walked. And I wore a sun hat. If I passed a woman I'd tip it.
  17. https://www.gaystarnews.com/article/coronation-street-actors-among-new-ambassadors-for-manchester-pride/#gs.dsmC=4I I have watched Corrie for over 20 years. Currently the show has three gay actors one of whom plays a straight character.
  18. It has been suggested.

  20. Maybe it could be moved to earlier in the day while the Sun is still up.
  21. On the radio I heard some advocate moving Halloween to a Saturday so children won't trick-or-treat on a school night. Sounds good to me!
  22. Thank-you! I missed that.
  23. I added (Movie) to the thread title but I had placed it in the movie forum.
  24. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robby_Benson I remember reading many years ago that the reason he chose his mother's name for his acting career rather than his father's Segal because it was Jewish and would hurt his career. I thought that was rather sad.
