-=> Quoting Kurt Weiske to Nancy Backus on 05-08-19 11:20 <=- NB>> That certainly gets all the letters of the alphabet... :) We've done NB>> the alphabet game on trips many times, finding each letter from A to Z NB>> on signs and license plates and such... and then returning from Z to NB>> A... Sometimes multiple times... it does help the car trip go a little NB>> faster... ;) KW> Oh, back in those days when the kids weren't watching DVDs... True... DVDs weren't even invented back then.... nor TVs(/DVD players) for the vehicles... :) To this day, I still will do the alphabets, even if I'm driving alone in the car... :) KW> There's a scene in the movie "Tapeheads", an old '80s flick starring KW> Tim Robbins and John Cusack as two guys who stumble into a career KW> producing music videos. They're drinking in a bar and the bartender KW> says that they need to pass a sobriety test for him to serve them any KW> more. He asks them to recite the alphabet backwards, skipping the KW> vowels, and signing the letters in ASL while doing it. KW> The actors do it. KW> I thought I'd never get served again if I had to do that! I could do it.... ;) at least as long as I can still sign the vowels.... :) Having read your message, I tried it... no problem at all... except for figuring out whether or not to say the Y and the W (which are sometimes vowels).... I often sign the alphabet as I do the game in the car.... along with manual spelling out the words on signs, just for practice... :) KW> ... Have you ever asked a question you weren't supposed to ask? Of course.... :) Occasionally it even gets answered.... ttyl neb ... I'm on a different cutting edge. ___ Blue Wave/QWK v2.20 --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5* Origin: Fido Since 1991 | QWK by Web | BBS.FIDOSYSOP.ORG (1:123/140) SEEN-BY: 1/19 15/0 16/0 19/36 34/999 90/1 104/57 106/201 116/18 120/302 544 SEEN-BY: 123/130 131 140 153/7715 203/0 218/700 221/0 1 6 360 222/2 229/426 SEEN-BY: 230/150 152 240/1120 5832 250/1 261/38 100 1466 266/512 267/155 SEEN-BY: 275/100 280/5003 282/1031 1056 291/1 111 320/119 219 322/0 340/400 SEEN-BY: 342/13 396/45 633/0 267 280 281 412 640/1321 1384 712/848 801/161 189 SEEN-BY: 2320/105 3634/12 5020/1042 @PATH: 123/140 261/38 320/219 221/1 640/1384 633/280 267 |
