RE: [Hornlist] Re: Slide Lubricants
cents is a similar corruption as dollar. Somebody knows the origin of dollar ? It was at Joachimsthal in German cultivated East Bohemia, where Count Schlick got the right to mint his own silver coins (also doubles, half quarters) 1520. They were named according to the place Joachimsthaler from the St.Joachim valley (German = tal). The name was reduced to thaler later, just for simplicity. And this became dollar, dollar, taler etc. Cent is 1/100th of a certain (main) coin. Centesimo or centime would be appropriate, but again simplified to cent. And in Europe we got the Euro now, which has not a meaning at all. It is like artificial honey. Since gold standard was abandoned, money has just a hypothetical value. Pfennig was a separate coin, a basic coin itself as was the old Russian kopek or lira or heller or penny (the English word for Pfennig). They had not adopted the metric (1/100) system then anyway. = -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2004 5:11 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Hornlist] Re: Slide Lubricants My two cents... sure, but why not my two Ore or my two Pfennings or my three sons?

Professor Pizka, Thank you for the complement, but on the BMI (body mass index) at the doctor's office, I'm in the middle, supposedly a healthy weight. Now if your calling me fat, I take that as a compliment because everyone else tells me that I'm to skinny and look like a stick, lol.

Re: [Hornlist] Re: Slide Lubricants
I know this is probably a little too much on-topic, but back to the subject of slide grease I've started using the Hetman slide gel. It takes a little longer to get on the slides since it comes out in a thin bead half the time, but I find that a little goes a long way anyways. Plus, it seems to have a very secure grip and seal all around. Just my two Euros... Now, back to your regularly scheduled program... -William In a message dated 4/12/2004 10:37:41 AM Pacific Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Professor Pizka, Thank you for the complement, but on the BMI (body mass index) at the doctor's office, I'm in the middle, supposedly a healthy weight.

RE: [Hornlist] Re: Slide Lubricants
Michael, with this size 5´8 142 lbs at age 16 are too fat. And your spelling of the Californian Governor´s name is unique absolutely: His name has nothing to do with vine-gar. His name is Schwarzenegger. This is some dialect spelling from Austria translates somewhat like (Man) from the black corner or (Man)from the dark corner or Black Harrow(er), also Dark (fat earth) Fields.(means good earth like vegetable mould). Or simply Man from Schwarzeneck, where Schwarzeneck means a small village name (Black Corner). -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, April 11, 2004 9:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Hornlist] Re: Slide Lubricants Thanks everyone, Yeah I do get allittle to worrisome at times.
