There are no stupid questions, only stupid people that don't ask questions.

You asked a question, and got an answer. If you feel stupid, it should not be for this.

Where's my waitress?

I don't think john's answer was intended to make you look like an idiot-- I don't detect any sarcasm, and he's doesn't strike me as the type who would be like that.

(I didn't know what "corker" meant either)

Hmm, maybe I looked at it the wrong way.

I was about to post almost exactly what johnfoyle posted this morning, WHAR, i.e. a dictionary definition. I would have meant no ill will and I'm sure john didn't either.
The expression must be much more familiar on this side of the Atlantic.
He was just saying that the new album is a cracker!

Do you mean the album is a saltine or do you mean it's a white guy?

It hardly makes sense, an album being a cracker.

I'm hungry.

cracker=a thing or person of notable qualities or abilities.

Anyway the new album's an absolute belter.

Sour Milk Cow · Post by **Sour Milk Cow** » Sun Aug 29, 2004 1:29 pm

yes, yes: it's a corker, a cracker, and a belter.

Great Post:

"There are no stupid questions, only stupid people that don't ask questions.

You asked a question, and got an answer. If you feel stupid, it should not be for this. "

We differ philosophically about as much as Rene Descartes and Fredric Neitsche, but I love the brutal simplicity of your post.

Thanks

You only have a few weeks to go. Patience, my son.

I know, I know. I have been spoiled by the last two albums, which leaked months in advance. It's so close to the release date now, the illicit thrill of hearing it early diminishes with each passing day.

Indeed!

A mediados de septiembre vuelve a la carga, y por
partida doble, el inagotable Elvis Costello. Al frente
de los Imposters, su nueva banda, presenta «The
Delivery Man», obra con la que el genio británico
regresa al territorio del rock después del sobrio
relato que, al piano de Stevie Nieve, representó su
aún reciente y emotivo «North»; de complemento,
Costello editará «Il Sogno», banda sonora que, en
tierras italianas, escribió el pasado año para el
ballet «El sueño de una noche de verano».

In the middle of September it returns to the load, and
by double game, the inexhaustible Elvis Costello. To
the front of the Imposters, its new band,
presents/displays "The Delivery Man", builds with
which the British genius returns to the territory of
the rock after the sober story that, the piano of
Stevie Snow, represented still recent his and touching
"North"; of complement, Costello will publish "Il
Sogno", sound track that, in Italian earth, the past
wrote year for the ballet "the dream of one night of summer".

Congrats, Mr. Foyle!

I also am willing to wait. There's nothing like getting a new disc, getting anxious during the trip home, and then putting it on for the first time.

Spooky and I were lucky enough to be at two of the Memphis HiTone shows back in April. I look forward to a nice CD with those songs arriving in our CD player.

If I could wait *coughcough* years before experiencing my first kiss then I suppose I can endure this as well.

wehitandrun · Post by **wehitandrun** » Mon Aug 30, 2004 8:30 am

I cant wait until it leaks.

I can't wait until it leaks. Paying is for losers.

John · Post by **John** » Mon Aug 30, 2004 10:17 am

So, will you not be buying the new CD, WHAR?

wehitandrun · Post by **wehitandrun** » Mon Aug 30, 2004 10:25 am

Ofcourse I'll be buying the cd.

John · Post by **John** » Mon Aug 30, 2004 10:54 am

Sorry, I think, wehitandrun. You didn't make the statement "Paying is for losers". Someone called werunandhit did.

wehitandrun · Post by **wehitandrun** » Mon Aug 30, 2004 11:01 am

I hope I didn't say that.

wehitandrun · Post by **wehitandrun** » Mon Aug 30, 2004 8:28 pm
