A Humble Hello

[RinglingRingling]

I thought you redheads were supposed to be of superior intellect. Inferring is something the listener does when the speaker, or in this case, typist, IMPLIES something.

Maybe you're just flustered because Lisa G. is back? Hmmmmm?

CG are you a school teacher?

No, I just payed attenshun at school. English were my most favoritest subjeck.

Fixed it for ya

Much better! Fixed it even more myself.

I forgot to add, Mings, that a couple guys on here like to jump on anyone who uses words incorrectly (can't recall it happenning to me, I might add; I'm mostly geographically challenged), so I thought I would just tease RR a little. No harm meant.

so where is it that I get to tease you about your relative paucity of local/regional geography?

Where's CG when you need her? What is "paucity"? (All of the sudden Mings feels like he paid for something he didn't get in school - an education.)

In this instance, I'm guessing it's lack of knowledge

Hey, Mings, I was at the dentist... bad news gotta go back tomorrow and get another crown... Since there's already a Queenie, I guess y'all will have to call me Princess... J/K of course...

Oh, Ringling, I thought you did tease me about it... Way back somewhere about the highest mountain in the United States, and I thought it was on the Appalachian Trail in Maine or something. Let's just forget it!

BTW, I love your vocabulary! Paucity is an excellent word...

Here's one someone actually used at a meeting I attended tonight, and he was in his 20s. He told this guy who (very amateurly) runs an independent cable station, that it would "behoove" him to call the office and get some guidelines on something or other. I thought the local yokel cable guy would say something about it, but he musta thought better of it.
Not a word you hear in everyday language very much...

Hi Lisa

(since I missed yesterdays fun and do not intend on back-reading)

Let me just say Welcome and you'll find some truly great people here.

She was probably thinking about Clingmans Dome. Which is the highest point on the Appalachian Trail and second highest (41ft shy of first) east of the Mississippi.

What about Mt. Washington in NH???

Perhaps you should...and maybe even the day before that

[mings]

CG, sorry to hear about your teeth. That sucks, but at least your letting it get to your head, princess.

I still have no idea what Puacity means. I guess I'll just have to wait until my new dictionary comes from Amazon. Right now, all I've got, is that paucity is slang for "poor city". That's a reach.

Highest recorded windspeed in the Continental US, I believe; perhaps also the lowest windchill reading/calculation too.

no worries. and thank you. That subscription to Reader's Digest for "It Pays to Enrich Your Word Power" was well-worth the investment.

Nope, Mt. Mitchell is higher. (So is Clingman's Dome in TN, btw)
