badmigraine 0 Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 Don't you love seeing a headline about an earthquake striking here or there, and you just know that somewhere in the first or second paragraph of the story, they will refer to it as a "temblor"? "...the temblor struck Japan's northernmost island..." "...the last temblor recorded in the region was in 1966..." "TEMBLOR" I just love that word. Nobody ever gets to say it, except maybe newscasters. Temblor...temblor...temblor... What a great word! Link to post Share on other sites
miteyak 0 Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 Maybe one could use the phrase to describe a lass in over the knees and micro-shorts... My oh my, quite the tremblor... Oh yes, registering rather high on my richter scale... a veritable 8... Gutter talk for the pseudo intellectual Link to post Share on other sites

Siren 0 Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 Bloomberg said no eruption is expected but a TV programme last week predicted the 'big one' is definitely coming, the question is only when and how big. Nikkei 225 will finally go to its true level (i.e. 6000)? Link to post Share on other sites
