The true "Murphy's Law!"
"Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong...... and at the worst possible time!"

I stand corrected my Captain

Give him a leg up Annie... the man is passing time, and I will take that beer and toke ya know he is off his sauce for a couple of months.

LOL If I give him a break, he will think I don't love him any more

Oh we know ya love him... I just don't think you should waste the good stuff.. " Throwing pearls after swine" remember "You cant make a silk purse our of a pig's ear"

Sometimes silk purses go around charadeing as swine so no one knows their true worth.


(okay ugotarians what is the correct spelling of the action word charades as in ending with ing? Looked it up in Websters and it isn't there.)

Yees there are silk purses out there that appear and first sight to be swines ears... but some times ... a pigs ear IS a pigs ear
And no patchouli in your christmas pressies this year

Apple Annie;
(this is gonna kill you) (dumb winch)
1st. Charades n. Usually in plural form. No v. form.
2nd. There are two other words that manifest the same idea in the v. form. They are; "pantomiming" and "mimicking."
3rd. (this is the part you gonna hate) In your query for action (v.) word for charades (n.) as in ending in "ing"...the definitive answer is......

.........."ACTING" (v.).......(action word).....
"The American Heritage Dictionary"...back to the game!
4th. Remember Annie; "Sometimes you can't see the Trees for the Forest!"
5th. "If it was a SNAKE it would have bit you!"

YOu are right Debz. He is a swine. I was trying to complement him and he slams me.

If you expected a favorable response by calling me a dumb winch you are sadly mistaken, No man calls me stupid or a winch although I think the spelling you were looking for is wench.

definition for winch:
1.the crank or handle of a revolving machine.
2.a windlass turned by a crank, for hoisting or hauling.
3.any of various devices for cranking.
4.Also, wince. Textiles.
a.any machine equipped with rollers that guide cloth through a dye or finishing solution in an open vat.
b.a roller between two dyeing vats for passing cloth from one vat to another.
–verb (used with object)
5.to hoist or haul (a load) by means of a winch.

definitions for wench:
1.a country lass or working girl: The milkmaid was a healthy wench.
2.Usually Facetious. a girl or young woman.
3.Archaic. a strumpet.
–verb (used without object)
4.to associate, esp. habitually, with promiscuous women.
5.A woman servant.
6.A wanton woman.
7.A low, vicious young woman; a drab; a strumpet.
8.To consort or engage in sex with wanton women. Used of a man.
9. frequent prostitutes

c.1290 wenche "girl or young woman," shortened from wenchel "child" (12c.), from O.E. wencel, probably related to wancol "unsteady, fickle, weak," and cognate with O.N. vakr "child, weak person," O.H.G. wanchal "fickle." The word degenerated through being used in ref. to servant girls, and by 1362 was being used in a sense of "woman of loose morals, mistress." The verb meaning "to associate with common women" is from 1599.

Hey I do know you are teasing me, but I spent 15 years being thrown against a wall and told if you weren't so dumb....blah blah blah. I know I do not react well to it.

No Worries Mate!
................"TOM'S ADULTERATED DICTIONARY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE"
Winch; n. 1,A tool. 2,That part of the Human body located at the top apex of the legs, of the Female Sex. Used to twist that part of the Human Body, located also at the top apex of the Human Body of the Male Sex, generally referred to as the "Nuts" usage; "That 'Winch' really has me by the 'nuts'!"

so you are saying this sentence is correct.
I was charade like a swine yesterday.
I was acting like a swine yesterday.
That does not make sense. or you can only refer to playing charades in the present tense, but not the past? I know the verb does not exist in the dictionary. it just does not make sense.

Refer to the recent blog thread; "English is Illogical" and how Bamber spells "Potato!"
"If it was a Snake it woulda bit 'cha!"
(probably in the Fanny, Annie)

I spell it 'spud'.

Charading: M-a-s-q-u-e-r-a-d-i-n-g
Spell check doesn't recognize charading either. If I am not sure, I try to use a different word, or when all else fails... use phonics.

Yes SIR, Captain SIR! Masquerading; --intr.v.
Usage; "The Ships company has a "Token" Black "Masquerading" as an Officer to satisfy 'equal minority requirments'!"

Well... you know, you can fool some of the people, some of the time.

FYI I am allergic to Patchouli.

Awwwwweeee poor Bamber don't tell me you have to give up the sauce to pass a drug test too... *blush* Oh you are playing the gameSometimes it is hard to tell

I used to have a cartoon on the wall behind my desk of Garfield lying on his back with that as a slogan.

Garfield is the best I have to admit... here is one you may enjoy

"If you wanna get some water...You gotta get it from the well!"

I felt so down yesterday...I had to reach up just to touch bottom!
(true story)

"If you wanna get to Heaven....You gotta raise a little Hell!"

Bamber...."It don't matter how you play the game of Life.......'cause you gonna loose it anyway!"

The closer you get to the top of the ladder of success....The more dogs there are, nipping at your heels, trying to pull you down!
