croutons don't really do very well in the refrigerator....you know that, right?
"strip" is a very versatile word:
it can be happy - sung in a cake song, "i don't wanna go to sunset strip; i don't wanna feel the emptiness. old marquees with stupid band names - i don't wanna go to sunset strip..."
it can be sad - "...stripped of all his dignity/worldly possessions/whatever you might sadistically wish to take from the poor guy..."
(please don't run off with that to the wrong place in your comments, or i'll make you disappear.)
i love the word shalom. just because the hebrew word implies so much more than the english "peace."
strong's hebrew lexicon defines it as follows:
a. completeness
b. safety, soundness
c. welfare, health, prosperity
d. peace, quiet, tranquility, contentment
e. peace, friendship (human relationships/relationship w/ God, esp. covenant)
f. peace (from war)
yay. shalom to you all.

ummm, yeah - if, like, three is many...
and thanks for the comment, even if it's a nothing-to-say.
(:
yeah once my croutons... well I'll spare you while your eating...
and my deepest shalom wishes
Like in Japan, I bet we'll be able to just use hello, yes, and no. that'll be interesting.
shalom... yay.
Well, I wouldn't call the English language shallow so much as more specific. See, the Hebrews kinda had to have about five meanings per word, seeing as how their entire language only consisted of about 5000 words....which leads one to wonder if they ever got in the situation where someone says something that couls be taken two entirely different ways....hmmmmm.....
also, some languages have single words for things that are difficult to describe clearly in english, like the edge of a shadow...
Yeah, or all those Inuit words for snow...
(Oh, and the Hebrew language does in fact consist in its entirety of about 5000 words. Total. That's it. I think we added about that many words to the English language with just this last edition of Websters....)
dude.. i thought i commented on this..
"and the gravedigger puts on the forceps.. the stone mason does all the work.." ;P
you face is the edge of a shadow!!
wow i'm not in on this thread.. oh well.. *shrugs*..
jo, dear, if you're going to be saying things like that, you need to be like, "your FACE is the edge of a shadow!"
without some kind of emphasis, it totally sounds like you're being weirdly philosophical.
no seriously. for a minute i was like, "my face is the edge of a shadow? what does this mean?"
.............
*sigh*
oh GOD....
Well done.
