I'm trying to work out how we can get Purell or something at the krav centre so the instructors can discreetly clean up after handling sweaty students.

There's a whole lot of ick there.

Because of my intense bitching I'm going to have a meeting with the krav business people about leveraging online communities. Why did I get myself into this? Because I can't bear to see people ignoring the obvious.

Ooh, conversational is good. I'll try that for a bit see how I feel about it.

Lori has some of those, Plei. and I have some flannel ones. I just never get around to it. I am currently using some cotton medical pads that Noah came home with. We have lots of stuff like that still around so we use that. Like special saline bullets that are the bomb for snot sucking.

In education jargon the level below proficient is basic.

meara, conversational, to me, implies less of a "reading/understanding" and more of a informal ability to speak it. Does that fit your French?

This. I wouldn't say conversational unless I was prepared to speak it with the person who was interviewing me. FWIW, I was hired as an editor of French and Italian language books based on a "reading knowledge" of Italian.

I like to believe that the germs on the cart handles kill each other off like Kilkenny cats.

Heh. Well, the likelihood is no one would actually ask me to be doing much in French, with the possible exception of having to look at documents or medical records in French. Which I"m totally cool with. And I could chat a little in French with someone who was French but spoke English (which likely everyone would have to, to work on a project with me) (as in, we'd chat a little in french, but get down to business in english). I may change to reading knowledge.

It's mostly just filler for my "long" resume version.

Do you boil everything the baby touches for at least 20 minutes?

oh, man. Wonder how that kid is doing now?

Catching every bug in the known universe?

ita, I wish that they had purell or the like covered on a regular towel. So you'd wipe your hands on the towel and it would like just like regular towelling-while-working-out, but secretly you'd be de-yucking yourself. that would work for Krav.

oh my god. Have any of you ever used the NPR Road Trip? It's soo cool and supremely nerdy.

Now I want to take wipes with me to the grocery store.

Some place have a bottle of wipes by the carts at the door.

Don't ever start thinking about cash currency. Just...don't. Or if you do, stick to plastic

The trivia bot on Twitter says that 40% of all $1 bills have been in the g-string of a stripper.
