Clucking Tip of the Day

By -
This is a tip for our friends who either live or work in the Wilmore area. If you hurry, Clucker's Corner is running a special where if you purchase any store item, including fuel, you can get a free small popcorn! It's that yummy popcorn that movie theaters make. So, grab yourself a refreshing fountain drink, or "The Mother Cluck" breakfast special, and tickle your tastebuds with the buttery goodness that is Clucker's popcorn.

I got fussed at the other day because I was clucking to my computer to hurry it up, kind of like you cluck to a horse.

This is a great tip. Because I'm low on gas, I'm totally taking going to cruise by the ol' Cluckers after work. I have to say though, the breakfast special is called (at least by 8Gers) "The Mother Clucker" - not The Mother Cluck. Your version just doesn't translate appropriately. It's ok, Jay, it's because your mind is so pure and innocent (shhh shhh...)

Wow, I think this is the first case of cyber-shh-ing that has ever taken place. Good job Jules.

although "shhh shhh" probably doesn't convey the same feeling as "shut yo mouth, motha clucka!"

Spelling Tip of the Day

By Stephanie -
I have always had a hard time spelling the word "hors d'oeuvres," for the times I've sent out party invites. And it's a pain in the tush to try and find it on M-W.com. So here's a good way to remember how to spell it:

HORSE (but no"E") + DOE+ UVRAYS (But spelled like it's pronounced by Julie Andrews in the D0-Re-Mi song on the Sound of Music...UV UV+RE...silent H...S)

Then remember there's an apostrophe after "D." Or, if you took French (I did not), apparently "oeuvres" means "works," if you can remember that (I'm not putting money on it, because I just used freetranslation.com). Here's a fun article on food spellings.

Sensitivity Tip of the Day

By -
When a friend, who is visually distraught (cracking voice/moisture under the eyes), it might not always be best to agree with them. Say for example, she just had a bad, um I don't know, eyebrow waxing incident. She might ask some thing like "do I have angry eyes?" This would be a perfect time, even for the super agreeable person, to disagree with their question. If you're up for an extra challenge, just don't lie through your teeth. Come up with something creative and sweet, such as "Could you try to smile for me real quick." (wait for smile) "No, your eyes don't look angry when you're smiling."
