Just found this thread...:D:D read it post by post and figured out the roasted lamb reference before the spoiler.:)
Do I win a prize?

Please turn up the heat in Iowa.:|



yes you win a prize.

no, it's not roasted lamb, real or symbolic.

no, it's not heat. it's 6-8 more weeks, maybe more of freakish cold weather.

congratulations!

Your prize is the knowledge that you are quite clever.
Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

I still oppose the use of this mnemonic. I mean, there's just nothing hot about lamb. RL is hot, ergo I do not think of lamb. Red Licorice, maybe. Raspberry Lollipop, perhaps. Romaine Lettuce? Mmmmm, no, but it is definitely better than iceberg.

Anything is better than roasted lamb:S

Anywho, I bought a new blow dryer today. I wanted one of those ionic, defusing technilogically advanced air-blowers;) The first three warnings on the label:

Do not use while bathing.
Do not use while showering.
Do not use while near a wet surface.

I found this humorous and wanted to share:P

I tried to explain this to rl, but I don't know what you would actually call it.It is not REALLY a mnemonic. A mnemonic is defined as:

A device, such as a formula or rhyme, used as an aid in remembering.

The fact that most mnemonics often create the rhyme from the first letters of the actual items is entirely incidental.The reason that roasted lamb is NOT a mnemonic should be obvious:

I would never NEED one to remember her. :ph34r:

However, I cannot think of what you would call it instead, so I let the whole mnemonic thing slide. ;) I guess you would call it just 'word substitution."

In anycase, out of the choices you laid out, licorice, lollipop, lettuce, and the one I gave, I would be far more inclined to choose lamb as my lunch. :ph34r:

And roasted lamb can in fact be quite a romantic meal if prepared properly.

Man I must be bored to write such a long defense. :D

Well, that ruins my plans for today: blow drying my hair while washing it.



The funniest part is, it came with this extra little piece---which I figured out where it goes easy enough, yet did not quite understand its purpose. I opened the literature that came with said dryer in pursuit of a description of extra piece's usage.

I did not find such a description, however, anywhere in the booklet.

Apparently it is ASSUMED I should know what the extra piece is for, yet warns me repeatedly, just in case I'm a dumbass, not to use the dryer while bathing:S:D

Edited to add: This disturbance requires some Bengay;)

Oh, and by the way, tin foil hat-master---It IS a mnemonic. GOSH! :P
