(In fact, the Barents Sea, north of Archangel - not the Bering Sea over by Alaska)
I remember that film. Cute, but can’t really say it did anything to bernie the reputation and advance the career of … I think his name was Jonathon Silverman?
I don’t know about reputations, but I typically burnish wood to seal and protect it.
Are you a magician? Because a good prestidigitator can certainly make wood varnish – a plank may disappear into thin air with a wave of the cape and an “Abracadabra!”
Kings used to do that too - if they were feeling merciful they might vanish a criminal instead of executing him.
Sometimes they’d send them all the way to Dhaka in Banish.
Would they blow them all the way there using their Bangladesh torpedoes?
I never liked the music of the Bangalores. I thought “Walk Like an Egyptian” was especially obnoxious.
Yeah, I always found the song “Jingle Bangle Jingle” to be a bit obnoxious myself.
You don’t like the song Mr. Jangles? It’s a classic.
Bojangles is a classic all right, but it’s not a song - it’s a French wine!
While she is French and probably drinks wine, Genevieve Beaujolais is an actress who played Anne Boleyn in Anne of the Thousand Days.
Owning a** Bujold** drove me to drink, that’s for sure. Those damn French cars are just weird.
Well, you really can’t expect a car to operate very well after driving it into Washington state’s Peugeot Sound.
I imagine that area would be pretty puget on account of all the stinky dead fish and seaweed washing up on shore.
While they can be pretty stinky, at least it’s the sort of stink that does you good - a pungent is an ointment, balm or salve.
Celtling is doing a special report on unguents for her school science class. She is absolutely fascinated by flightless birds, and the focus for this month is the ecology of Antarctica.
I don’t think you’d find many penguins in Antarctica – even in Hungary, they’re not too common anymore, as they haven’t been used as currency since 1946.
I don’t know how many Pengos i spent- but the clothes were Awesome. I bought some great Hungarian Goulashes to wear over my Boots during the Famous Midwestern Tournedos season.
Welcome aboard, but you’ve not quite got the idea. You’re not meant to be introducing new byways like “galoshes” and “tornadoes”, but rather spotting that “pengoes” was meant in the previous quote, and then misusing it. Thus:
Currency? I don’t think a pengo would use currency - among the Dayaks even a chief just practises barter, unless they’re buying things with human heads! :eek:
A difficult word, but Wikipedia is your friend
