LOL but I deliberatly misspell Harlett... as HarlOt is an occupation and not mine <wink>

Hi MH

When I read yours, I got the "harlot" reference. But I also got a "Miss Scarlet" as in Gone With the Wind. No?

I like clever names. Wasn't really thinking (or, ahem, following the rules?) when I chose my s/n here. (LonDom? Bo...ring). But elsewhere, I'm DomKnots and OliverTwisted. Wordplay is fun. And, if you're a funny/clever guy, hopefully such a nick communicates that.

Boy, talk about a downer.

Now I'll have to change my name to "someoneIlovedcalledmeMasterforthefirsttimeonValentinesdayanditmeanttheworldtome" How the heck am I going to abbreviate that?

Maybe just take out the vowels? Works for some folks.

And then there are those that are "Collard" instead of Collared

Yeah, but anyone who'd spell it "Collard"...must be pretty green. (ie a newbie)

Okay, kinda wrecks it to explain. But colouredin and others around the planet may not get the ref. Collard greens are a leafy vegetable. (As, I'd say, people who mix up dominate & dominant. Vegetables, that is.) It's a staple in Southern (US) home cooking. But I see it in my grocery store here in Ontario, Canada, too.

(I love rapini, which sits near cg. And I've tried chard & kale. But I've never tried c g.)

Okay. I was going through the thread. Numerous things inspired me to make my cute little comments. But this is three in a row. If I keep reading the thread now I'll probably be "inspired" to further posts. Sooooo...I'm gonna come back later.
