We seem to all be in agreement that anybody living in America should be speaking English. Sometimes, though, they just have better words than we do ...
- Tingo: A Pascuense language word from Easter Island that means borrowing items from a pal's house, one by one, until there is nothing left.
- Kummerspeck: A German word that literally means "grief bacon" but refers to the excess weight gained from emotion-related overeating.
- Bakku-shan: Japanese for a woman who "seems pretty when seen from behind but not from the front."
- Ulykkesbilen: Danish for an "ill-fated car."
- Putzfimmel: German word that means a mania for cleaning.
- Nakkele: From Tulu, India, this describes a man who licks whatever the food has been served on.K
- atahara itai: Japanese for laughing so hard that one side of your stomach hurts.
- Drachenfutter: A German word that is "dragon fodder" when translated literally, but means the peace offerings made by guilty husbands to their wives.
- Plimpplampplettere: Dutch for skimming stones.
- Backpfeifengesicht: German for a face that cries out for a fist in it.

Of course I can't pronounce them. But I'll fit them into conversations every chance I get, because who's gonna know the difference??
Wow I'm glad Bakku-shan got off the water dept.
Regardless of what you say there is no such word.
Rose! You need to make up a new word, cause I cant see where she looks good from any side. Call it fliber gastel or something.
usage Irregardless originated in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its fairly widespread use in speech called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that "there is no such word." There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.
R ye sayin she's just a kummerspeck?

Who is the dim witted preacher in Clay that said you can't be a democrat and a christan?
Ah come on do you realy believe that crap. that is another one of them thing that throwed out there to get people mad a preachers.my understanding that preachers are very carful who that talk to cause some people takes everthing out of contex to suit themself believe half what you read. everone has there own cause.
Preacher Jimmy Duffield.
Ha check out CRJ looks like she got the worst of that round.
I under stand that Link.- Will be running Clay County in [4 ] years. So kiss up and be nice. Or you may not get your monthly check.........
Ya need a republican on the comission to keep Link honest.
Maybe MP will change her party. We ain't heard the last of Ms. Lardo.
Running the county in four years? I didn't know there was an office for the president of Clay County. Or, maybe you mean he will be creating that position so that he can have the title. Or, perhaps you mean King of Clay County so he can wear a robe and crown.
What do you mean about hiring his personal staff? Come on folks! Get real. He is a commissioner. None of the commissioners in the past have done anything worth mentioning. Why be so worried that someone might actually do something?
King Link? I thought we already had a king? You can't "hire" royalty, so if he's going to be king, he's going to have to put family to work. Otherwise, his staff would just be a bunch of court jesters. So, you see, we DO already have a king! This place has been run by clowns for quite some time.
GOOD MORNING!!
You the people are the one that elect them.
MP thinks she is "the ONE" that elected him. So everybdoy can blame MP when he screws up.
and he will
Don"t count Link and Sirk out.!!!!!!!!.
anyone know what happened in ivydale area this morn. heard scanner traffic about 11 AM. ambulance and police trying to find a location. 11:45 AM coming out of clay north on rt. 4 met what appeared to be clay police car followed by state patrol car and ambulance with all lights flashing proceeding towards clay at a slow rate of speed. approx. 1 mi. out of two run.
Ron Sirk is a JERK!!!!!! He could not run for dog catcher in this county and get anyone to vote for him!!!!
Amen!!!!
Wonder what the word for it burns it burns is in German, Speckinsihot, maybe?
LOL
Go to I Lak Da Way You Tawk & have a little fun.
I typed in "it burns my a*s like fire" & got "es brennt meinen Esel wie Feuer."
But if you take that German translation & translate it back into English, it means, "it burns means donkeys such as fires."
No wonder nobody can get along in this world. Who knows what the h*ll anybody's trying to say??
LMAO
That picture on CRJ's website of Roger Grose is a little bit more of a close up than I'd like for it to be. YIKES!
Ya need a republican on the comission to keep Link honest.
Jesus Christ would have a full time job doing that.
The remark was " you can't be a christian and be a liberal democrat" what it boils down to (believe in everything as right and theres nothing wrong with anything) Translate that into plain English- A gip dog has more morals then liberals at least they choose who they breed with.
What do you mean about hiring his personal staff? Come on folks! Get real. He is a commissioner. None of the commissioners in the past have done anything worth mentioning. Why be so worried that someone might actually do something?
Link will need a Tanner to wipe his Arse cause he hasn't done that in years. As far as him doing anything for the county have you lost your mind? Its called fill your pockets not what can I do for the people. Power of the Almighty has been restored to Clay County by Link. The only thing he will do is raise your taxes until you can't afford to pay them so your property can be auctioned off in front of the courthouse by the Sheriff so Don can get it. Called the Starcher Syndrone or Goat herding
Sounds like Link will be too busy to service all the willing sluts around town.
There are sluts in Clay?????
Must be. Can't have "studs" without 'em.
Links to busy playing golf to service any SLUTS!
Sluts??
Where??
where are all the sluts??? i wanna know!!
Link does not even play golf. Once a year when he holds his tournament. If you are going to write something, know your facts.
Never mind all the rest. WHERE ARE ALL THE SLUTS?
LOL
Um ... I ain't sayin' nuthin', but ... Anon @ 3:01? You're awfully riled about getting the facts straight about Link's golf habits, but aren't you kinda defending the wrong "falsity"? You're not doing him any favors by getting hung up on that & letting the slut thing go.
Sluts & studs in Clay {shaking my head in disbelief}. Who knew?!
Why are you mad a LINK has he taken office yet?
Who knows what happen at Wallback?was there car wreck?
Who knows what happen at Wallback?was there car wreck?
Wonder what Links favorite club is, a woody or an iron?
And what's up with that Clay County- New York murder connection thing?
Of course there's a connection between Clay County & murder in New York. Surprise surprise what it is.

SEPTEMBER 3, 2004
"MURDER MOUNTAIN SAGA"
From the last edition, in the war zone known as Murder Mountain Richard Cummings was shot four times and Tommy Young Sr was arrested on felony wanton endangerment. His bond was set at $150,000.00. Son Tommy Jr was evading police with pick up warrants at the ready.
Since then, here’s the skinny… Bond Reduction Hearing for Young Sr Aug 23 2004, 1 pm With ten or so in Judge Alsop’ Courtroom attorney Jerome Novobilski made the plea to reduce Sr’ bond. His statements included: Sr doesn’ have the resources to go the $150,000 bond; he only collects $570 per month on Social Security; only his wife Renee has a job; during previous court appearances Sr has already showed up; there is little risk that he would run away; he has been a resident of the county for 8 years; he has kids here…. Novobilski asked the Court to reduce bond to $50,000.
Alsop wasn’t buying the plea and suggested that if Sr was out on bond he might try to assist his son who’ also wanted.
Novo wasn’t done yet. He worked it harder with: this case is one man’ word against another; there is no evidence that Sr did anything; Cummings was angry at Sr because Sr turned over evidence against Cummings; sr and his family were in bed asleep when the shooting started; and, Sr was a good citizen for turning over the evidence ( a meth lab) and now his good samaritian deeds are negatively impacting him.
Prosecutor Grindo came back with: this is extremely serious, there were a number of shots; Sr may already be on bond in New York and the son was involved there; they could be repeat offenders.
Alsop was firm, with five pending felonies, and with Tommy Jr violating his home confinement terms, with charges against Sr in NY, Nope Nope Nope. Sr remains in jail until he comes up with the $150,000.00
Before you had to go to 7-8 blogs to get the news. It's so refreshing now to get it all by just clicking on the "one and only LIFE IN CLAY County"!
kool
You mean we got murders in our mists. I can smell a law suit here somewhere. Ruthless people running rampid on our quiet little streets, old ladys being muged, young ladys being raped and they even stole the flags in town, PITTIFULL!
There was a wreck in Wallback indeed. It was right infront of that gas station place. A gold colored car with two male passengers was layin on its top. Was told by a bystander that one was just scraped up and the other was ejected from the vehicle an didnt appear to be good. Do not know who it was but i hope they will be alright.
GOOD MORNING!!
Wow. Pretty diverse place here, huh?
Apparently, there are murders all over these days - Channel 3 news is talking about the one in Clendenin as we speak.
Have a great day! (Hope your day is a little more laid back than my last few have been!) It's supposed to be almost 80 today!!
As for myself I think they are lying about the weather but I am not taking off my insulated, back door flap, long handle red undies til that mometer hits 90. You can't fool an old fool many times.
i'm still looking for those sluts in the county. the murder in NY has nothing to do with me finding sluts. any one have a clue?? who's a slut? i wanna know!!
sluts have aids,be careful when you find them.
Check out WRJ they must had one heck of a party in Cambel Co
Per chance does anyone on MM drive a "dually"?
Inquiring minds want to know.
WHERE ARE THE SLUTS?
A dually with a flat bed body.
A white dually with a flat bed body.
C'mon, Slut Seeker. Don't you read these blogs? You don't find a slut; they flock to YOU.
You put on a silk shirt & a tie, then promise jobs to the wind. The wind will carry the promises to unsuspecting ears & even the finest, most upstanding citizens in the county become sluts. Just fall right down at your feet, from what I've read. Then you promise jobs to all their family members to keep them sluttish & hush-hush about it all.
Try it & check back with us. It's a fascinating phenomenon.
Wasn't there some chatter about stolen duallies being found around the MM area not long ago? Hmm. Isn't that interesting. Surely it's just coincidence. Yeah, it has to be. Those weren't "duallies" up there, they were "doolies." Must be talking about something else altogether, huh?
I hope Anderson Cooper & Shepard Smith do the national news coverage.
Doolies?? Doileys? dual - two ?
Plenty of duels up there too.
Anon if you aren't finding any sluts then perhaps they are running from you.
Backpfeifengesicht - Rose Cantrell
Sir Henry I don't think aids is popular.
Rose you don't seem to be all too popular with someone this morning either. LOL!!
Hope you all are getting better weather back there than we are here in OR where of course...it's raining. Suprise. Suprise.
"Have a goodern!" (Did I spell that right?)
