I finally found something with which to agree with she whose face will not crepitate.

EXCLUSIVE: Nancy Pelosi’s Daughter: ‘My Mom Wants to Leave Congress’

[theDentist]

I was in the midst of a deep oscitation in bed when my neck did crepitate loudly, but the relief felt was enough to let me snooze another 10 minutes this morning.

[secret garden]

A+ for you and I like the new tag. We need someone to rally around.

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Glad to see someone else knows the “other” definition. There was some French guy who actually had a stage act crepitating in front of delighted audiences! I submitted this word to xsmommy, about a month ago, for her “Word of The Day” threads. Did it as kind of a joke. Thought the responses might be fun! I’m kind of surprised that someone else has used it!

[secret garden]

I’m not a fan of the face pulled so tight you can bounce a quarter off of it. A+ for you.

[secret garden]

Those extra 10 minutes can really help. A for you.

[NeoCaveman]

it’s a miracle she can blink

:)

[xsmommy]

come stai {no idea how to spell that, but that’s how it sounds ; ) }

[xsmommy]

When you get home and start missing Italian, you will have to come and visit our new parish. it's a lovely little church, with an ethnic rather than a geographic base. We were assigned parish family #202, so it's pretty small, but intimate and we like that. 9 am and noon masses are in English. 10:30 am is in Italian.

If you pour Folgers over Rice Krispies you get decrepitated coffee....

I’ll give the going away party for Nancy.

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

“My bad I always thought it meant fart.”

It does also mean “phart!” See my #24.

[martin_fierro]

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT

SO HERE'S A PICTURE OF A BUNNY WITH A CREPE ON ITS HEAD

[Silentgypsy]

Gym squats make my knees crepitate.

[Silentgypsy]

Root beer makes Rice Krispies crepitate?

[Explorer89]

You spelled it right.

Q: Come stai? (how are you doing/being? and you used the you-familiar, which is fine for us :)
A: Sto bene.

I’ll pass on the Italian mass. I am just barely able to function linguistically. It is really frustrating me now because I understand about 40% of the words around me, but cannot put them together fast enough. When people slow down for me, I can at least communicate.

[secret garden]

You’re punny today. A for you!

[secret garden]

A+ for you!

[secret garden]

Mine too. A for you.

[tioga]

I overslept this am, got up at 11:30. (Sigh) Now I am feeling lazy.
