4th edition, Enjoy !

1.  Why did Oral B name their floss Satin Floss ? The second thing is, why would they name it so that they lose all the business to religious-abiding people ? (Including moi.)

2.  Many words have a lot of meanings. For example, to say that one leaves in French, would be partir, which means TO LEAVE.

    So when young adults/teenagers say that they hang out, do they really referring to hanging themselves outside ?  Shocked

3.  If most of the Commonwealth countries has a Prime Minister, where is the Composite Minister ?

Grin

Thanks !
James

You know it's pronouced sat·in, not sa-tan.
As in the cloth or fabric.

Ive got one - Why is it that when someone starts a sentance with "No offense, but...", they usually want to tell you something offensive.

Sorry but I don't get any of it. Either I lost my sense of humour overnight Shocked or I must be missing the point here. ???

One has to wonder what you would make of satin finish paint. Roll Eyes

PS. I can't see the image you uploaded so I imagine it's been deleted for some reason.

PPS. Don't give up the day job. Tongue Grin
