Question game

[JackOfHearts]

Yes, I did read the paper, and while it is funny in a juvenile sense, it doesn't detract from your appeal at all.

What color were the eyes of your first crush?

[Lady Quindecim]

The color of my first crush's eyes _are_ brown.

what colour is the ink in your pen?

[JackOfHearts]

Black.

What color are you wearing?

[dharmaqueen]

Blue.

When was your last trip to the laundry?

[Go? Fencing?]

Sunday.

What kind of tea did you last drink?

[JackOfHearts]

Snapple, white tea. Pretty good, actually.

Are you being served?

[Lady Quindecim]

No, not at the moment.

Faulty Towers?

Any tips for fencing to make it more interesting for a newbie like me?

[Lady Quindecim]

1) Watch and learn as much as you can... even outside of lessens.
2) If you are not in shape, put in some extra effort to get there. It will help your body do what your mind tells it to do. (In or out of shape has little to do with over or under weight. I dropped a lot of weight (again) and am really out of shape )
3) use the search... this thread is not likely to produce a serious response to a serious fencing question... it is more of a "hang-out" thread and we tend to get silly or whatnot. (There is a "new to fencing" section for just this kind of post.)
4) Be likeable and have fun with it.

Welcome to the sport.
[But what about-]
{No, I'm not gonna-}
[It's making me nuts!]
{Fine - sheesh.}

By the way... I think you would find "noob" or "noobie" more common spellings, but as the word implies....
[EDIT] okay, "newbie" works [/EDIT]

[Tazz]

a question?

[Lady Quindecim]

Was my post missing a question?
Actually, I fogot what thread I was in and though it was rather odd for someone to ask for tips in the 5xxxxx thread. So I was kinda brain-missing on that post.
Ok, now a real question:

What does CAVOK stand for?

[Tazz]

Ceiling & Visibility OK... and yes I did google that

What was the mos expensive gift you've ever received? (and from who).

[JackOfHearts]

My fencing gear from my mother.

What's one gift that means the most to you, sentimental-wise?

[Tazz]

My amazing silver and diamond bracelet from my amazing boyfriend

What is the most expensive gift you ever bought for someone?

[JackOfHearts]

A claddagh ring.

Kind of regret it now, but meh.

Did you pull any decent pranks yesterday?

[Tazz]

Nope.. I wasn't even aware of which day it was.

A claddagh ring? Thats a traditional Irish, no?

[JackOfHearts]

Si. Which means yes. The symbolism was lost on her, however.

And I've got a little Irish blood in me.

Hows your day going so far?

[Tazz]

Irish and Spanish huh? Por favor, llame al médico.

My day is going fine.. its time to go to sleep though.
Work work work.. thank god my university breaks up tomorrow for easter.

¿Donde puedo comprar un bigote falso para mi perro?

[JackOfHearts]

It gets worse. There's also a little french and italian mixed in as well.

Sweet dreams.

You might want to try the costume shop down the street. The sombreros run a little tight, though.

Ever been to New Orleans?

[Tazz]

And American surely?

Not too bad, not too bad. Im a bit of a mongrel myself with Dutch, German, Portugeese, British, Irish and Russian.

I have never been to New Orleans, no.

Why?
