I didn't know how to do a screen print. I had to ask diebitter to explain it to me [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] And Katy then had to try and walk me through that whole process that diebitter posted in the Jackson Pollock thread. Sadly it was not working, so Utah came along online (he's in Siberia) and walked me through. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ] Wasn't the pimento question asked in another thread? Katy do you remember? I looked up tostada and Katty you are correct, but in Cuba and Spain it can refer to bread that is toasted.

Re: general knowledge everyone knows (but you!)
Maybe it's because I just woke up, but I can't think of a single example of how this applies to me.
However, I'm quite confident that I'll be reminded of one before the end of the day. (I'd have to guess if asked to find Iraq on a map, but I don't consider that to be "common knowledge".)

Re: general knowledge everyone knows (but you!)
We had a class last year in philosophy called Normativity, the study of norms. A norm is something that you should do. Some may have heard the distinction between a subject (for example ethics) being normative or descriptive, concerned with what we ought to do and what we actually do. We'd had this class for ten weeks and in the last lecture the professor asks the class what a norm is. A guy I know to be quite intelligent and one of the better students insta-calls the question with "something that usually happens", dead seriously.
Professor not best pleased.
