    Hi Girls-

    Here's something to have a little fun with: <http://www.blogthings.com/index.html>

    Just scroll down a bit and find your stripper name, drag queen name, hippie chick name, etc. The quizzes are kind of fun, too. It's not a very serious site, but good for a laff or two.

    I didn't really like my stripper or drag queen names, but if my girl parts (which I ain't got but often wish I did) had a name they would be called "Tw*t Waffle" (don't want to say anything even vaguely porno)<g>. I did like my hippie chick name, though, which is Phoenix.

    Have fun.

    Hugs, Joni

    Well, since everyone's sharing...

    My brain gender is the same as Monika's, 93% female. I think my girlside has totally taken over, the remaining 7% just barely allows me to operate on auto-pilot at work and so on, while the rest of by brain thinks about makeup and going shopping. Whoops, strike that, that was horribly, horribly sexist. My wife and g-girl friends would give me that narrowed eye, pursed lip look if I said that in front of them.

    My porn name is Busty de Lusty which just sounds dumb.

    My stripper name is Rain, which I kind of like.

    My drag queen name is Agnetha Anus, which I think not only sounds dumb but is more than vaguely disgusting.

    My hippie chick name is Pheonix, which if I combined it with my stripper name yields Pheonix Rain, which for some reason I really like.

    Also I'm fairly honest, I will tell the truth most all the time, but am not above stretching it a bit, especially if it won't hurt anyone. "Why no, that dress looks really good on you, it doesn't make your fanny look big at all."

    And I'm more logical than not, 63% logical as opposed to what they don't say.

    Anyone else want to join in?

    Hugs, Joni

    There was a recent British Advertising campaign for a well known brand of Vacuum cleaner that would have visiting Americans doubled over.

    "Nothing Sucks like an Electrolux"

    .. Couldn't see the humour in it myself ....! But a quick search on google produced a whole site on this and other mis-translated or culturally inappropriate advertising ..

    Umm, okay, now my curiosity is piqued as well as peaked. So, Shan, what does "fanny" mean in Brit English as opposed to Yank English? In the US "fanny" is just a colloquialism for arse, and one so mild that you could say it in front of children. If it means something so outrageous you can't type it out loud, just whisper it to me.<g>

    Oh...okay. So saying to a British girl, "Wow, your fanny looks pretty cute in those jeans." might get your faced slapped. Got it, making a note now. Thanks, Shan!

    Hugs, Joni

    when in australia an english person might not get what they expected if they go into a shop and ask for sellotape.
    whatever you do don't try and wrap your presents with it.

    Well, I was sharing this interesting bit of linguistic trivia with my wife and she reminded me of a Britishism that gets wide eyed looks and giggles over here, "Come round and knock me up." Which means something completely different in American English.<lol>

    Hugs, Joni

    You are funny Shan! LOL!

    > Isn't Aussie sellotape condoms?

    I think that's Durex you're thinking of. In Australia it's a brand name for sticky tape.

    yes shan you are right, sellotape in oz is a brand of condom, at least it used to be, which is why you shouldn't wrap your presents up with it.
    surely durex is an english brand name?
