When I started college the teaching approach was what is called New Criticism. It really has changed over the last 20 years. Yes we had Marxists and Freudians and others similar, but they were well in the minority. Today we have evolved to Feminists, deconstructionists, post-structuralists, new historicism, and whatever may be the latest fad. Yes there were those who were publishing papers 20 years ago, but it was never imposed on students until recently. You can probably look this stuff up, Joe.

Por una cabeza
Si ella me olvida
Qué importa perderme
Mil veces la vida
Para qué vivir

I think purse is old term that doesn't apply for people under 50 years old. I call my wife's thing a purse and she hates it. She insists it's handbag or just bag. She says that purse is a thing old ladies carry.

Ok, am I the only one who would happily eat of of those foods pictured. Especially the 2nd one mmmmm Poutine
There once was a scotsman named Drew
Who put too much wine in his stew
He felt a bit drunk
And fell off his bunk
And landed smack into his shoe ~(C) Ms Niamh Anne King
That's what I was thinking. What's wrong with poutine?Ok, am I the only one who would happily eat of of those foods pictured. Especially the 2nd one mmmmm Poutine
Wait a minute here...poutine in Scotland? I can drive south for fifteen minutes and get arive somewhere where absolutely nobody will know what that word means. I didn't think anybody was familiar with it outside of Canada.

I guess I did. This explains much.

Oh, is that what that stuff is? My town actually has a huge population of French Canandians, I guess I should have recognized it.My friend bought some at a local festival and went on about how great it was (albeit somewhat greasy).

My friends and I all call them purses....and we're 15! Some are American and some are British, but that's what we all call them.
Good old Swiss Army Knife. Have several, none that big. I carry two mini-multitools in my left pocket all the time. Plenty of gadgets. Two knives in the othe pocket at all times. Have over 100 knives, swords, and other edged weapons. That's why my first character was Jonathan Blade!Thank you Kathy. Quite true.
Now this is going off topic for a guys discussion. Let's talk about pocket knives. Does any one have one like this?
You never know when you're going to need all those gadgets.I go for the unusual more than for value, and have a knife called "The Torch" made for display only, that opens into four blades spaced in each corner. I wouldn't argue with it, I can tell you that!
Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us smoke
Some of us lie
But it's all just the way
that we cope with our lives...
Cool Pen. I used to carry that swiss army knife pictured when I traveled about (i kept it in my brief case), but since you can't carry those on airplanes anymore I stopped. I throw that or something simpler in my knapsack when I'm on a hike or something.
