I'm out of practice.
Is it attractive to discuss subjects like word translations or schools?
Let's speak about beer or parties.

Wow, xerung is the real idioms guru now. Interesting, I often hear this phrase used incorrectly (even by Americans) ? ?have one?s cake and eat it too?, which may sound the same, but changes the meaning completely?.

Nope, maam, just a humble amateur

What was striking me the most while in the US, was how many pathetic lousy writers there were. I actually saw students spelling "could of" instead of "could've". Freakin farm boys...

Early Russian sexual traditions

By Evgeny Kamyshev

...I will take a risk to say that the source of the strange relations between a man and his mother-in-law should be sought in the 16th century. In that epoch parents wanted their daughters to get married as early as possible, at 12 - 13 years of age. On the first night after the wedding, the mother-in-law went to bed with her daughter??s husband to safeguard their girl from a lethal outcome. Then the lady continued sharing the bed with her son-in-law for 2-3 years.


Satan's feast
In the end of 16th century ethnographer Nikolai Galkovsky was the first to publish a paper on fornication in Russia. He believes, sexuality reached its peak in Russia in 16th century.

Sexual intercourses took place not only in taverns, but also on the streets. Most of sex was made in bath houses which were not separated, but common for men and women. Weddings were celebrated for 2-3 days, and on the second day no sober person could be found, and few guests had no sex with 2-3 persons of opposite sex.

Rich people went even further. Their weddings lasted for a week. ...

Кстати и в тему о прошедших выборах в США - нарыл где-то в своих старых записях, зацените:
"
I wish at this point to categorically deny that there is any substance to the baseless allegations being made at this time concerning my supposed involvement with persons who I cannot name because the matter is currently before the courts and we will all know the answer in good time. Thank you for taking advantage of my well known dedication to democratic government and consumer participation in the deceision making process which as we all know is particulary vital at this juncture in time.

Howdy, people. Who is keen in taking an active part discussing Scottish English? Apparently, the difference b/w Scottish and British isn't that evident when Scot speaks to Brit, however, once two Scotts do come into contact - they start murmuring some weird and odd phrases and words that could be hardly understandable or even not comprehensable at all by other non-Scotts.
