Sounds like we have a herald in our mist.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herald

"A herald, or a herald of arms, is an officer of arms, ranking between pursuivant and king of arms. The title is commonly applied more broadly to all officers of arms. "

Unless you are demeaning me in some way.
I simply like the intellectual aspect of the word game. I don't like the opposite.

Knowing the heraldic name of a fur is rare. I studied it for a while and the suggestion is certainly not demeaning. Admired would be a better term.

Okay, My bad. My apologies.
It is more learn then know in my case. Words are very fun! I love following the proverbial " word White-Rabbit." Where will it lead us?

I didn't see the posts after "Big!" and then between my post of Pregnant.
I have to refresh to be sure. I caught that issue twice after refreshed but I didn't refresh this time.
So My fault.

LOL I posted "hot" in response to "Venus", but somebody beat me with "Aphrodite", but I guess I can still leave mine alone. :-)
I'm putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all, I think, that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.

I see that I am not the only one that has a problem with the combination Luxury and Covid. Sorry I just don't follow the connection and can find no definition of Covid that allows me to follow along. Admiral can you help move the thread. What is the connection? What is the logic? It appears that you stumped us.

Yeah, that put the brakes on the thread. I can't find any direkt connection between Luxury and Covid, other than that Luxury ships have problems with passengers tested positive for Covid 19.


Good thinking. That gave me an idea. Quarantine
