Let 's add string after the end text. smile.gif

 

... Leather and jeans

Garage glamorous

Not sure what it means

But this photo of us

It doesn't have a price

Ready for those flashing lights

'Cause you know that baby I

 

I'm your biggest fan

I'll follow you until you love me ....

 

I'm your man.

some prompt in some link

Let's sum up, ladies and gentlemen.

 

For the present we have 5 tasks for fun and profit:

 

1. A puzzle: "Jane talks faster than Mary who talks more slowly than George. Andrew talks faster than Jane, but not so fast as Alice who talks faster than George who (as you know) talks faster than Mary who doesn't talk as fast as Jane. Who talks fastest of all? (It's easy, just write down the names and cross them out)

 

2. One more riddle: "What makes a road broad?"

 

3. Misprint 19. The text below contains a mistake where ONE LETTER in a word IS MISSED. For example, if the word should be BOX it is printed as OX.

 

"HEAD WAITER WANTED FOR FIVE-STAR HOTEL Experience essential, with a good knowledge of food and beverages. The successful applicant will have a smart appearance and peasant manners. 40 hrs/wk. Excellent salary."

 

4. See Serdar's task above.

 

5. The story: "Natasha From Russia".

 

Good luck and have fun!

 

PS Oh, Serdar, It's too long, I'll do it tomorrow.

Alice.

Jack -Let me see , I will check maybe there is some other problem in your internet connection . Natasha stood in frenzy without knowing what to tell. At least she find the decision.

 

My dear I think you are so hungry. They had supper and have gone for a walk smile.gif

 

In the evening when they were back a surprise was waiting for them…Natasha’s mother.

Without any greetings she looked at Jack, her eyes flickered.

- Can he dig potatoes?

- Mum, don’t start.

- He is skinny, I don’t think he can. Can he plough?

- Again your dacha!

- Yes, I told you many times I need a helper in the garden. But if he is an American I think he will do with those Colorado bugs. (chuckling)

As all this was said in Russian Jack didn’t understand a word. He stood there like an idiot.

The only word he understood was Colorado.

- Yes, yes, i am from Colorado!

[Serdar 2]

"- He is skinny, I don’t think he can. Can he plough? " And then she has thought inside herself mind: - Small louse but painfully bite.

* As Jack was the cultural person he acquainted with Natasha's mum and has politely invited her to Colorado.

He was surprised when Natasha has translated that they will visit Colorado with great pleasure .

Natasha did know yet that JAck has a family on his homeland.

 

There are waiting for him 2 small children and his nice and clever wife

[Lady LG 4 159]

to everybody!

"And now, my darling," Natasha continued, "it's time to talk on business matters. Your idea of opening a new English school sounds great! You're a native speaker and people will pay a lot of money for your lessons."

"Yes," Jack nodded. He felt pleased and important. "Let's start right now. We should advertise our project and we'll do it through the Internet. Where is your notebook? Tell me your nick and password and it'll take me ..."

"No," interrupted Natasha and shook her head doubtedly, "I'm afraid we can't advertise anything in the forum. It's forbidden. Our moderators, especially Banner, are very strict. We'll be banned at once. We had better put an advertisement in our local paper, "Puskinski Vestnik."

 

- Oh, I think no one reads this newspaper - said Jack. Except grandmothers, which are interested in other things. I have one remarkable idea - Maybe I will start to stydy English with your friends at the same time I will get acquainted with them. We may begin now. Open your Icq and write it to your friends.

 

At this moment Natasha understood - if she opens her Icq he will know a lot of new things about her . She tried to find an excuse.

"I wish I could do that," the girl said, "but I'm afraid I can't. There's no connection with the Internet today. "Azimut" isn't working."

-Let me see, I will check maybe there is some other problem in your internet connection . Natasha stood in frenzy without knowing what to tell. At least she found the decision.

PART VII

Even his father didn't know that Jack and Jane were married. He thought Jane was just his son's girlfriend. Jack and Jane's children were charming twins: a boy and a girl. They were two years old.

Yes, Serdar, you're right!

No problem.

 

'peasant manners' for head waiter there are no, but 'pleasant manners' there are !

[Molly Malone 4 452]

Even his father didn't know that Jack and Jane were married. He thought Jane was just his son's girlfriend. Jack and Jane's children were charming twins: a boy and a girl. They were two years old.

 

No one knew they were married because the wedding took place in Las Vegas when they came there for the weekend. At first they both gambled heavily, then drank, and then got married.

 

"I wish i were a captain on a ship," he thought. "Then I could have a wife in every port"

 

(I'll add from myself: Men...)
