I read your message from 05.10.2013 16:20 AS>> In Russian, the word for pig is used to blame someone for AS>> dirtiness of their own, or untidiness of their place or AS>> eating process. RW> RW> In America when I was a teen (a long time ago), a 'pig' RW> described any female that was a homely, over weight, sloppily RW> dressed girl or woman. RW> 'Man! What a pig!' It reminded me another story: Three boys from different countries met in some place. "Do you know," said the boy from Germany, "my grandfather is a priest and everybody calls him a holy father." "It's nothing," said the boy from Japan, "my grandfather is a Zen guru and even Emperor touches his feet." "That's bullshit," said the boy from the US, "my mother weights 600 pounds, and when she is in the street people exclaim 'My God!'" Bye, Roy!
