I think he might have a bigger line than he expects.

No idea what LR's post is conveying. Should I recognize the young woman? She seems very personable at first glance.

I right-clicked on "View Image" and saw "Jessica London" in the address box. I never heard of her but further research brought me here.

Well, anything to do with whales . . .

No +persons were injured during the course of making this obscure language joke

Meade--you may have to explain the obscure joke--I know whales in Spanish are Ballenas, but that is pronounced quite differently from balero/bolero. Can you give a hint at least?

It was just the root - bale.... In Afrikaans, baleia = whale

Another quip might be to use the name Gareth, but not the same kind of Wales. (Gob!)

OK, thanks. The Spanish word seems to have the same root, and I recall learining tht some whales did not have teeth but had boney plates called baleens, which functioned as filtering plates for their feeding.

I think Meade's and my efforts deserve a "meh"

This thread is on the verge of become a fat-shaming spew fest propagated by white privileged males. Being a white privileged male myself, in order to separate myself from others and show that I'm above the fray, I may have to kill myself and blame my death on MajGenl.Meade.

If it's in that order, I'm not worried
