I recently learned that the shorts women wear under short skirts in China are called "Safety Pants" (安全裤）, and now often when I am driving around or whatever I find myself singing nonsense lyrics to "The Safety Pants" song based on the 80s classic "The Safety Dance".
Hoping this does not happen inadvertently in a business meeting or something.Comment

This is interesting. I'm not a sports better and have no judgment for those who are, but these findings are pretty damning towards the enterprise. It is concerning to me that sports events now seem so dependent on betting advertisements. I think it creates an unhealthy relationship between the broadcasters and betting houses that *could* potentially impact the on-field product.

I would not have thought of that as an effect of sports betting.Originally posted by YOhio View Post"I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

One of my business partners, the head of our Credit Risk group, has very good English even though she is not a native English speaker. Having said that, she never picked up on the nuance of the phrase "pile on", and thinks it just means "Add to". So she often sends emails that start out with something like "To pile on what Bob said", or "I'd like to pile on Brandon's thoughts".
I haven't said anything because it makes me chuckle whenever I see it.Comment

They are sure putting a lot of "Jack-in-the-Box" fast food places in in North Davis County - I've counted 4 in Layton/Kaysville alone. I hope what happened to the Sonic Drive-ins doesn't happen to them. The Jack people seem to be following the same plan. Of all the Sonics that were opened in a six month span, I can think of only two that are still operating.
I may be small, but I'm slow.

I've mentioned in another thread that I take occasional online Chinese speaking lessons with a teacher in China. In our last class we got to talking about daughters (I have three. She only has a son and wants a daughter), and the bond between fathers and daughters. She mentioned a somewhat common Chinese saying along the lines of "Daughters are their father's lovers from a previous life". She seemed a bit put out when I wasn't really all-in on the sweetness/preciousness of this saying.Comment
