12 What is meant by the Latin phrase as it would be in modern usage, i.e. not its litteral translation - "Pons Assinorium" ?


Not bad but these were wrong, or in the case of 10, I would like you to clarify what you went by size, length, width or what?

3. 1932
5. Corsica - in 1808 he was already up and going, do you mean to suggest he invaded Russia at the age of 4? LOL http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif
6. USS Monitor 1862
11. Metal spikes driven into the ground at 45 degrees as a medieval defence against a cavalry charge
12 well litterally it means a bridge for Donkeys, but it would mean a test for beginners

5. Donotes wheel structure for the Engine. 2 means two front wheels, then 6 on the Locomotion part, and then 4 behind, holding the 'coal' part.
6. Horse Racing was the best I could find . . . describing the weighted races based on handicapped . . . not sure here . . .
9. Well, they had a meeting from June 25 1979 to June 29th 1979 . . . did they share a Geisha Girl? (jking)

BK


Again not bad, mostly right, fewer passes http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

2. Port = red, Starboard = Green easy to remember with the line, "there's no red port left"
5. Almost, but the third number isn't necessarily the number of wheels of the coal part as you put it. It is the third wheel set, which may well be under the coal part of a tank loco, but on an express one with a tender, then these wheels are under the cab. PS also only relates to steam locos, diesels use a different nomenclature.
6. Darts
9. Do you think either wanted sloppy seconds, they're world leaders!!! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif No it was in fact the peanut, JC farmed them, HH studied them (fascinating pair http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif )

Not bad, considering you are asking specific questions in areas that I have no previous knowledge! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif Not complaining, mind you . . . Cloudy, put down the whip! OUCH! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

Sorry to be so mean, but blantantly favouring Arsenal, I mean come on http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Interesting point, at what point does specific knowledge becomegeneral knowledge, most people would consider sports and soap opera to be general knowledge, but my sporting knowledge is restricted, and I do't on principal watch soaps, so its not my general knowledge, whereas historial warfare and maritime issues are.

Hey BK

If Jack helped you off the horse, would you help Jack off the horse?

Your damn right I do whatever I want! what oh...coming mom.

javelina is prepared similar to kalua pig. Except instead of calling it a umu they say dig a hole soooooo unimaginative and they throw wood and haole spices on instead of bananna, tea leaves and yams and island spices.
