  1. Kids will feign sleeping when their parents check on them in their bedroom so they can stay up later.
  2. And possibly Scandinavia.
  3. Teachers frequently glower at their students.
  4. So, does demure mean a modest person is hiding behind walls???
  5. Don't worry about Val. She knows how to handle those big snowfalls. It was last reported that she was hollowing out an igloo, and when she finished she opened a bottle of wine to help her keep warm.

    Fall From Grace

    I definitely agree with you. There were many other LGBTQ members that contributed in winning WW II for the allies, it's just that what Turing did was overshadowed by the fact that he was gay. Even though the British government apologized and pardoned Turing in 2009, it came 55 years after his death. Thank you for your feedback.
  7. And here I thought this word was going to have something to King George, possibly King George III. Boy was I in for a surprise! Thanks for setting me straight.

    Spacy Prompt

    Spacy prompt or spacy prompter? 😎
  9. So, another name for hoodwink or bamboozle.
  10. This is another interesting article I found. https://maternityweek.com/s/forgotten-icons-lgbt-wild-west?as=70&utm_source=AOL.com&bdk=0 This article actually ends when you reach the section entitled "The Richest People of all Time, and Their Obnoxious Fortunes."

  11. I just read this and you might find it interesting. https://maternityweek.com/s/gay-pilgrim-colony-merrymount?as=70&utm_source=AOL.com&bdk=0 The story ends when you get down to the section entitled 'John Billington.'
  12. I agree, and I'd just like to offer a theme for you to consider: starting over. Great job, Val.
  13. When some people do it, the 'dumb' in adumbrate becomes very accurate.
  14. I was wondering what the difference was between preternatural and supernatural and came up with this. Preternatural describes something that is beyond what is expected or normal, while supernatural describes something that must be caused by a force that is beyond the natural. I hope this helps to clarify the situation for others that were wondering the same thing.
  15. Unfortunately, many cultures end up including offal in their diets because they have to make do with what's available. This might be a current situation or something that they or relatives have used in the past and have acquired a taste for, but either way it came about due to necessity. I have a suspicion that possibly hot dogs came about in that fashion, but I'm not convinced it's the case with chicken nuggets. It seems more of a situation of using every part of the chicken and eliminating waste in the production process. However, I would like to thank @drpaladinand @raven1for pointing those items out.
  16. Offal - it sounds as if they're talking about pig's feet, among other culinary delights that I prefer not to have on my menu.
  17. Congratulations, Dodger. The promotion is well earned.
  18. So this means Myr is Gay Authors' journeyman computer expert.
  19. My children watched the Batman TV shows when they were younger, and sometimes I watched the shows with them, so I'll join you in passing my condolences along to his family and bid him a final farewell. Rest in Peace, Kevin Conroy.
  20. Steve, and don't forget Thanksgiving Day in the US when people are looking back on the things they can truly be thankful for. Sorry, Cole. I assumed Steve wrote this as a follow-up to his Weekly Wrap-up.
  21. Some people are considering the enormity of their waistline and trying to do something about it. 🤪
  22. My guess would be cute guys. 😜
  23. Not to be confused with compromise.
  24. Let me add my CONGRATULATIONS, kbois. it's well deserved.
  25. Hmmm... so all of this time I've been inditing and didn't realize it.
