Yet another word game

[stringertom]

Checking one’s tongue or keyboard fingers might mitigate damage of an irreparable degree to one’s career and reputation.

 

[Vcore89]

Reputation is what men say about you on your tombstone;
character is what angels say about you before the throne of God.

-- W. H. Davies

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Godard's jump cuts may have been calculated cinematic revolution or merely a matter of necessity.

 

[stringertom]

Ty Cobb was given insane baseball skills but an insanely cold heart filled with bigotry and misogyny.

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Nylon stockings were once all the rage.

 

[stringertom]

Age suits fine art and wine much better than it does teeth, hair and bones.

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Bone softening occurs in the condition known as osteomalacia, but in children, it is called rickets.

Culture shock in a reverse direction happened to me as a teen moving from mod-age Europe back to not-so-hip northern Florida. Hairstyle and wardrobe preferences did not match up at all.

"Culture shock in a reverse direction happened to me as a teen moving from mod-age Europe back to not-so-hip northern Florida." Hairstyle and wardrobe preferences did not match up at all, as seen in these rare photos of @stringertom showing up at his new high school.

 

[stringertom]

High School Hairy was my moniker and beads and bell bottoms were mainstays of the wardrobe.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

The wardrobe of @stringertom, stolen when he streaked past security for a touchdown at a FSU football game, found their way many years later to an Amsterdam thrift store.

[Mike Bulgakov]

"Green Day" by Green Day is about a green day.

 

[stringertom]

Green Day is 4/20, one day after Bicycle Day on 4/19. Together, they are The High Holy Days.

 

[Vcore89]

Days Inn by Wyndham Niagara Falls is a bit of a letdown; won't elaborate, just that there'll be no next time.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Time is a matter of perspective.

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Perspectives differing so much from culture to culture, and even person to person, is what makes life so interesting.

 

[Vcore89]

So interesting is an outsider's perspective regarding gun laws in the US of A.

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

A+ grade is what I always received as a child in spelling.

 

[Vcore89]

Spelling words of incredible length is really not an exercise in futility, it's just long--and easy, but long, for instance, pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Osis is a suffix as is itis; in medical terminology it is helpful to know that words ending with itis denote an inflammatory process, such as hepatitis, colitis or gastritis.

Electric streetcars in New Orleans were my primary mode of transportation from my school in the afternoon to my evening ballet classes, and nothing beats that relaxing ride.

Electric streetcars in New Orleans were my primary mode of transportation from my school in the afternoon to my evening ballet classes, and nothing beats that relaxing ride.

This evokes very atmospheric imagery out of a film scene or painting. I have never been to New Orleans, but have many associations through films, music, and culinary lore. It's surprising how many films have been set in New Orleans.

Electric streetcars in New Orleans were my primary mode of transportation from my school in the afternoon to my evening ballet classes, and nothing beats that relaxing ride.

Nothing beats that relaxing ride of a large boat on water. I really enjoy taking boats between Denmark, Sweden and Finland. The ferry to Alcatraz is very relaxing.

 

[Vcore89]

Relaxing for me is to turn up the quiet!

 

[stringertom]

Quiet Riot might be as oxymoronic a band name as Led Zeppelin but are they as unreachable or have they ever made us remember laughter???

 

[Vcore89]

‘Does anybody remember laughter?’ ad-lib still embarrasses Robert Plant to this day.

 

[stringertom]

To this day, “Roger Daltrey never laid a hand on me!” is a quintessential example of the irreverent creativity of the clever mind of Frank Zappa, who first showed his flair by teaching television legendary talk show host Steve Allen how to play a song using a bicycle as a musical instrument:

 

[Vcore89]

Instrument of Surrender was the legal document which effected and ended World War II.

 

[stringertom]

World War II casualties included an estimated 70 million deaths worldwide, making it the bloodiest conflict in the history of mankind.

 

[Vcore89]

Mankind, Cactus Jack or by any other name Mick Foley [depending] would smell as sweet or stink. I personally think he's a stinker.

 

[stringertom]

Kershaw and October...not a good combination!

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Combination locks are preferable to key locks, providing one's memory is up to par.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Paris parties!

 

[stringertom]

Ties made of silk and cut quite thin are my neckwear preference.

 

[Vcore89]

Neck tie preference would be blue with subtle regimental pattern. [My retired Army Colonel relative always wear full-on regimental (Brionis) neck ties]

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Patterns of behavior, if completely unrecognized, aren't likely to ever change.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Forever Changes is an album by Love.

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Love takes many, many forms and isn't always easy to recognize.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Easy to recognize love for music as these three sing for free.

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Freedom should be revered above all else, most people agree.

 

[Vcore89]

Freedom should be revered above all else, most people agree.

Agreed.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Agreed upon transactions can be in the form of oral contracts, which are binding.

 

[Vcore89]

Oral contracts which are binding is synonymous to gentlman's handshake deals.
