I like them too - they are so-called homophones (they sound the same but have different spelling and meaning). My favourite one is "I scream - ice cream" _________________

My favourite - nonsensual English:
Kod: | "One fine day in the middle of the night"
One fine day in the middle of the night,
Two dead men got up to fight,
Back to back they faced each other,
Drew their swords and shot each other,
One was blind and the other couldn't, see
So they chose a dummy for a referee.
A blind man went to see fair play,
A dumb man went to shout "hooray!"
A paralysed donkey passing by,
Kicked the blind man in the eye,
Knocked him through a nine inch wall,
Into a dry ditch and drowned them all,
A deaf policeman heard the noise,
And came to arrest the two dead boys,
If you don't believe this story’s true,
Ask the blind man he saw it too! |

In that case, probably after struggling with my conscience for couple of weeks or even months, I would decide to speak, just to keep it clear and don't feel guilty for not telling about the comitted crime. You may say that on the other hand I should feel guilty for breaking the obligation of keeping the secret. However - there are always some exceptions from the rule and you have to choose whether it is appropriate to break it or not. _________________ QPoland - skoro jestem już oficjalnym współpracownikiem, to warto zachwalać

That's right. Thank you. I was influenced by You Don't Fool Me:

BeBe - I don't like translating English into Polish but just defy is something like: po prostu sprzeciwić się. It's taken from As I Am which you already know. _________________ Whatever happened to playing a hunch? The element of surprise, random acts of unpredictability?

I see Good influence, BTW But Freddie's "you'll be playing by her rules" is more like "you will behave in accordance with her rules" or "she'll be the boss" or "she will pull the strings in the relationship" _________________

Well, to be honest it's hard to say in what kind of school I didn't teach No, but seriously, since January I've been working in a private primary and junior high school (it's in the same building ). As I said, this school is a private one but, of course, it has got the status of a state institution. So, this takes up my mornings and early afternoons As for the evenings, I also work in a regular language school, not to mention some private tuition... Oh, and this private primary and junior high school also runs special courses (financed by EU) i.e. for unemployed or retired people, so, recently I've devoted quite a lot of time to this as well
So, as you see, I teach almost everybody - young ones, old ones, elementary through upper-intermediate, you name it The youngest dude I have ever worked with was a 5-year-old Finn called Tuukka (he spoke neither English nor Polish and my Finnish was far from fluent too ). The eldest one is probably 61 - a retired lady from the EU course I'm doing now.
I guess that's it _________________

And why the apostrophe in 'want'? We don't need that lil' bugger here
All right, the joke time:
'A bus stops and 2 Afro-Americans get on. They sit down and begin an animated conversation.
The lady sitting next to them ignores them at first, but her attention is attracted when she overhears one of them saying:
'Emma come first.
Den I come.
Den two asses come together.
I come once-a-more! .
Two asses, they come together again.
I come again and pee twice.
Then I come one lasta time.'
The lady can't take this any more, 'You dirty, sex obsessed pigs,' she yells. 'In this country we don't speak aloud in public places about our sex lives.
'Hey, coola down lady,' sais the man. 'Who talkin' abouta sex? I'm a justa tellin' my frienda how to spell ' Mississippi ' _________________

Sounds to me more like two people of Italian origin, not Afro-Americans
Which brings me to this classic monologue:

All right, I think I've read somewhere about it. In such a case the priest cannot break the vows, even if an innocent person facing long-term inprisonment is involved. The only thing the priest can do is try to persuade the killer to confess the crime and turn him/herself in. In other words, the priest cannot talk - he can only do his best to make the killer talk (or have faith in qualified CSIs who, after processing the crime scene and the body of the deceased, should be able to determine who the killer was ). _________________

Homophone of the day:
Back hurry back
