Byflist: Ole and Lena jokes
http://byflist.blogspot.com/2005/12/ole-and-lena-jokes.html
A blog of lists. Who doesn't like a list? Friday, December 09, 2005. Ole and Lena jokes. Old Ole was in bed dying. Downstairs he could hear Lena rattling pots and pans. Pretty soon he could smell the sweet smell of potato lefse wafting up from downstairs. And Ole thought, "Oh, my darling Lena, she's making me potato lefse for my last meal before I pass on.". That's for the funeral! Thanks to Catherine Jensen). So Lena, worrying about how much it might cost, said simply, "Ole died.". You don't need 'em...

http://byflist.blogspot.com/2005/12/limpiaparabrisas.html
A blog of lists. Who doesn't like a list? Friday, December 02, 2005. I actually got up at a decent hour today. Working late hours as I do, I rarely get a chance to see New York in the morning.

Check is waiting on the table. 3 Mail out car insurance renewal form. Stamped envelope is on the table. 5 Order limpiaparabrisas online. Not done. Youve come a...

A blog of lists. Who doesn't like a list? Thursday, February 02, 2006. There are certain words and phrases you read only in the newspaper. I hate most of them. Tout A headline writer's favorite. "Bush touts oil independence," etc. Massive. I hate it when I read about a "massive" protest or some other "massive" effort. How can it be massive? It has no mass. Tony, Posh. How often are these words, used to describe something upscale, used in ordinary conversation? Halt What's wrong with the word stop? That's...

Byflist: Labels
http://byflist.blogspot.com/2005/11/labels.html
A blog of lists. Who doesn't like a list? Monday, November 07, 2005. I hear people go on all the time about how they eschew labels. (I hear this most often from bisexuals.) My question is, what's wrong with labels? Twink: We've been through this one. Bear: A large, usually older, hairy gay man. Muscle bear: Add muscles. Daddy: An older gay man, usually with authority issues. Muscle daddy: Add muscles. OK, let's just say you can put "muscle" before any moniker. Ditto "leather."). Chicken: A young gay man.

A blog of lists. Who doesn't like a list? Wednesday, November 09, 2005. You've come a long way, Cyndi. This is not "MTV Unplugged," folks. The arrangements are genius. I urge you to purchase/download "The Body Acoustic". At your earliest convenience. I'm still listening to the album so can't provide a complete review, but so far I'm amazed. The tracks:. 1 "Money Changes Everything" with Adam Lazzara. 2 "All Through the Night" with Shaggy. 3 "Time After Time" with Sarah McLachlan. Posted by Byf @ 1:30 PM.

Byflist: Mis palabras favoritas
http://byflist.blogspot.com/2005/12/mis-palabras-favoritas.html
A blog of lists. Who doesn't like a list? Wednesday, December 07, 2005. My recent post about limpiaparabrisas made me think about my favorite Spanish words. I'm far from fluent, but I've had enough instruction that I love the language and its quirks of pronunciation (of which there are few). My favorite words in Spanish:. Los blue jeans (Blue jeans). Putería (Queeny slang for gay bar; literally, whore store). Encebollado (With onions; literally, onioned, which I think should be an English word). Women of...
