Asa: It's over between us. I'm leaving you! Your Icelandic list is no longer meeting my Icelandic needs. I'm creating my OWN list. It's for the best. I hope you understand. If you need to vent, try emptying your sorrow on Cry for Me Brangelina. :)

Asa: I have more dictionaries and resource materials than I have brain cells. Icelandic is one of my "favorite" languages. Interestingly, an Icelandic newspaper published an article about my "Shoecabbage" comic panel a few years ago. (Publications in Malta, Jersey, Latvia, Albania and Fiji have also written about my cartoons).

Asativum, I guess the "special pages" features didn't exist at the time the other wordies added their comments there...

You got it, Pro. See more of me here.

Asativum, where does your name come from?
A. sativum, maybe?

I just sit here and free-associate...the computer opens that up quite a bit because it's so instantaneous.

Thanks for the encouragement, Asativum. I'm glued to my computer by circumstance at the moment and I have so enjoyed the distraction of my endless citations, however redundant they turned out to be.
Just don't want to appear insensitive or oblivious. I'm enjoying the camaraderie on this site, too.

No worries, A. You certainly haven't been the only one!

Sigh. Not my day. Apologies all around, with two on Fridays.

Another hilarious misunderstanding!

Nope! That was skipvia. We look alike, though. ;-)

Fixed--thanks! The typography police are satisfied. :)

Many sorries, resetee! I think I fixed it...

Asativum--I think you forgot to close an italics tag in your post on palindrome. On the comments page, everything after your post appears italicized, to me at least.

Hey, thanks! Really, I didn't mean to offend. And I really wasn't trying to make a crack about snacking on vegans; I meant pickled in the sense of polluted, or even lightly tipsy. Forgot about the yeasties, for which I have a certain fondness as well...

Why get mad in the first place? :-)

asativum-- dammit, I can't stay mad at you. You have that winning Wordie charm. ^_^
