    Oh my...you just used one of my favorite words...colloquially. Although I usually use it in a noun form. You know big words, like to drink and are from Australia....I think I'm in love. :rose:

    He probably does not know you are a woman - and might get scared off these forums. That'd be a huge loss - so please watch what you tell poor Michael. :rolleyes: Regards, Nish

      Is it just me? Or do any of you other wowsers out there think those are higher unacceptable lyrics to be broadcast to our kid sisters and children?

                    It's a James Blunt song, Three Wise Men that was playing on the radio at the time of my post. The title is one of the lyrics. A Semi is colloquially almost an erection.

                                  I thought of a truck. We call a 18-wheeler tractor trailer truck a 'semi' out here. So I was trying to figure out who gave a darn that three wise men had a truck by the sea. I've seen better runs in my shorts! - Patches O'Houlihan

                                      Even accepting your premise that semi refers to a partial erection, why should wise men not have erections? Why is it offensive to suggest that they might? If this is truly your opinion and you aren't just baiting people then you have correctly identified yourself as a wowser. Further, your interpretation is flawed. According to the lyrics, said wise men had a semi by the sea. Not three semis, just one. And they had it jointly. And it was significantly located by the sea. It's a semi-detached townhouse, which although still an erection, is more the bricks and mortar kind. Inside said domicile they got stoned all day, according to other lyrics. You can take offence at that, if you want to, although before you do it would be a good idea to find out how frankincense and myrrh were traditionally used.

                                      PeterW -------------------- If you can spell and use correct grammar for your compiler, what makes you think I will tolerate less?
