English is Hard - Great Poem
We’ll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes,
But the plural of ox becomes oxen, not oxes.
One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese,
Yet the plural of moose should never be meese.
You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice,
Yet the plural of house is houses, not hice.
If the plural of man is always called men,
Why shouldn’t the plural of pan be called pen?
If I speak of my foot and show you my feet,
And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth,
Why shouldn’t the plural of booth be called beeth?
Then one may be that, and three would be those,
Yet hat in the plural would never be hose,
And the plural of cat is cats, not cose.
We speak of a brother and also of brethren,
But though we say mother, we never say methren.
Then the masculine pronouns are he, his and him,
But imagine the feminine: she, shis and shim!

RE: Not that hard really
Try challenging your students to write a grammatical sentence that includes the same word 11 times in a row, as a way of demonstrating the importance of punctuation.
RE: Not that hard really
Two students, Tom and Pete, were trying to write a sentence including the word "had". Tom, where Pete had had "Had", had had "had had". "Had had" had had the approval of their teacher.
RE: Not that hard really
Wow! I wish some of my teachers were hosts on here when I was in school! I can think of several I would love to have seen in prvt! And then there were some I'm glad they were not! Would have ruined me forever! haha
Still going through it
I met someone 10 years ago an became friends. She became very special to me. There was a bad situation occurred then she backed away. It has been a year and we barely talk. I think of her everyday and wish so hard that we could be friends again. What advice do you have? She was my best friend.
RE: Still going through it
JUST GO UP TO HER AND PLANT A BIG WET ONE RIGHT ON HER LIPS. She'll come round..-)
RE: Still going through it
Have you said you were sorry, and asked her to forgive you? Seems like a beginning place, if you haven't. And then also Belle's advice.
Going crazy
Here's What Breaking Up Does to Your Brain
When the love of your life dumps you, you’re going to go a little nuts. But it’s a very specific form of crazy: It’s like you’re falling in love all over again, only in reverse.

The Rodeo
Two cowboys are out on the range talking about their favorite sex position. One says, "I think I enjoy the rodeo position the best." "I don't think I have ever heard of that one," says the other cowboy. "What is it?" "Well, it's where you get your girl down on all four, and you mount her from behind. Then you reach around, cup her breast, and whisper in her ear, 'boy these feel almost as nice as your sisters.' Then you try and hold on for 30 seconds."
Leave the Light On
Innkeeper: "The room is $15 a night. It's $5 if you make your own bed."
Guest: "I'll make my own bed."
Innkeeper: "Good. I'll get you some nails and wood."

Golden Rule 10
Sean, "Golden Rules of Life"
Never miss an opportunity to make others happy, even if you have to leave them alone in order to do it. So be happy, stay cool, keep on smiling and love your neighbors.

RE: Hairy/natural or groomed men - what do you prefer?
Groomed! Too hairy is bad, and completely shaved is even worse!
RE: Hairy/natural or groomed men - what do you prefer?
What is wrong with a man who has natural hair all over. Don't you enjoy being taken by a real man?
Why ?
Strange and scary how our life depends on money. Without them, our dreams and goals are empty / I do not know what to do. I have a goal, desire, aspiration, but there are no resources, so I have to live my life is negligible .. Why do people God gives financial condition, and I'm always trying to get out of poverty. I do not know what to do, I lost faith and left very little say hope dies last, will soon feel the end. I hurt, very sad that I can not do anything.
RE: Why ?
If you are healthy that is a plus.
You are a beautiful girl and the giving and receiving of love (in its many forms) is the most important thing in life. Take care and smile xx

RE: Why ?
Well on the bright side, you're doing this. Once you start to treat camming like an actual career/business, and you invest time, creativity and last but not least (a little, to begin with) cash, you'll discover you can make a lot of money out of it. Wish you good luck!
RE: Why ?
And how do you know that she isn't treating this like a career? How do you know she has a little cash to invest? Your judgment and arrogance astound me.
RE: Why ?
If you would pay attention, you might see that EvaL is 20 years old, and MissW is 30 years old. Perhaps you would also see that MissW is a successful Dungeon host. Perhaps MissW feels she has some advice to give.
But that would mean actually paying attention. Instead, you see judgment and arrogance in your own judgment of her. And so, you astound yourself. Happens often, I'm guessing.

RE: Why ?
No seemsreal, i read her post correctly. I am well aware of the differences between the two. Waltrude has no respect for the painful reality of evalife's post. She assumes that evalife's problems are simply easily rectified by a little cash, a little attitude adjustment, when in fact she has no idea what evalife is experiencing, or what her real life situation might be. I have known hosts who have absolutely nothing doing the best they can with what they have, putting in long long hours yet not succeeding. Waltrude offers platitudes not advice.. She assumes Evalife's not giving what she could.
RE: Why ?
I just don't see MissW's advice as condescending. MissW puts herself completely into what she does. So I take her post as being honestly what she thinks.
You had to attack her as a person to make your point. I don't understand that.
I do understand that hard work doesn't always mean you will achieve your "dreams" or succeed in some other way here. I think the issue goes much deeper and also this is not the appropriate forum to discuss it.

RE: Why ?
Wow... Just speachless. Being proud and work for your goals and dreams is a better solution than moan on a forum about it. Dont wait for the prince charming on the white horse come and shower u in money girl. Stop moaning and do something about it if u really want it . Crazy ...
RE: Why ?
There is old saying "You've got to spend money to make money". I run successful online fashion business. I had to spend money to make money!
I agree with MissWaltrude's 1st posting about investing time and creativity. That's how I got my own successful business.

Anyone remember Stacey
Or the delightful Rosebud from Perm. easily the best girl I`ve ever met on this site.
been gone for quite some time now, but I`m wondering if any other hosts know what happened to her?
of course they all have other lives outside of here. but if she came back under a different name it would be nice for a heads up.

Little did you know
Little do you know just the sight of your picture on this site makes my heart smile; seeing your on-line makes my heart race, and seeing your smile makes my world brighter. Little do you know
RE: hmmm, did you know
The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off.
