Heh, M + Y = Red; and C + (± 60% M) + (± 10% K) = Blue.

Or is that just crazy talk? :wink:

lest we forget, CMYK is for print. RGB is for web.

there's a reason web designers refrain from using yellow text. a good one too.

WOuld it sound that Hollywood Fantasy is the least popular title? Naked on the Meach seems the most ridiculous. I'd try to pick the most silly so I compete against all the asswipes. The serious songwriters tend to pick the more genuine titles. I can't take myself that seriously.

I'd be interested to know how you define a 'genuine' title, and for that matter your definition of a 'serious' songwriter.
'Naked on the Meach' is Deep Throat at his/her best, the title I've picked and is, therefore, positively not ridiculous.

FYI In England (land of the free, etc) it's arsewipe. An ass being a donkey like creature with big fluffy ears.

I am either a serious songwriter defying tendency, or I'm an asswipe. Most likely both.

And my dictionary defines "homonyms" as words that are spelled and pronounced the same way but that have different meanings.

'Arse is prounced 'arce' via the German arsoz from the ancient greek orros (tail), first attested in c.1400. and 'Ass' derives from asinus and indirect evidence of the change from arse to ass can be traced to 1785 (in euphemistic avoidance of ass "donkey" by polite speakers). 'Asshole' dates to 1935.' (info from the online etymology dictionary)

That's just the sort of vital trivia I like to regale fellow drinkers with when ensconced in a public house.

hmmm..... Meach

Are you telling me you actualy know this word? (by which I don't mean googled for it) . How in the name of all thats profane is one supposed to use it, am I being naive when I fail to connect it with deepthroat?

As for your Arse/Ass, we went to a lot of effort to half-inch our lingua franca, and we dont take kindly to you colonial types playing fast and loose with it. Look there's no hard feelings, just ask nicely, and we'll take you all back ;-)

Use it well. Abuse it well. Amuse and bemuse, you see mews (or are the trees in the way)? Great, a freak with cheek. :wink:

Though I can't fault your attitude, I'm still no closer to the holy grail of comprehening meach, in retrospect, that's not much of an objective to found a knightly order upon, no wonder my bretherine are so dispondant. Well to the comprehension of meach, and other great mysteries, we ride!

As much as I don't like to give people the angle I intend to use, look up Meach, not meach. Then it all starts to make sense ...

How do you know he wasn't referring to an article designed for wiping donkey-like creatures? Pehaps even for wiping thier big, fluffy ears?

To save confusion - maybe 'bum-swipe' should be substituted.
