planedriver Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 At Sydney's Jetstar Check-In today, I thought i'd humor the girl at the desk and said "Please send one of these bags to Hobart, one to Darwin and the other to Macua". She said, “We can't do that Sir!†--------I replied, thats utter B.S. you did it last week!â€
Ben Longden Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 Too true, really..... Ben *never fly jetstar again*

Admin Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 and recreational flyinga farce telling irony Try rolling a fiancee!!! Lofty lining a career a tolerence fir lying uh - sorry mate no understando, but to take a line out of Short Circuit, more "input" needed on Recreational Flying :confused:
Guest Macnoz Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 they are anagrams of Recreational Flying -- the letters in the words rearranged and used only once make the new words / sentences. Wasnt having a go at you or this site just the fun of words. Parliament is an anagram of partial men, Clint Eastwood is an anagram of Old West Action? All the life's wisdom can be found in anagrams. Anagrams never lie. The eyes = They see Mother-in-law = Woman Hitler Vacation Times = I'm Not as Active The Detectives = Detect Thieves Eleven plus two = Twelve plus one
Admin Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 aah - that's right I remember there was an anagram of something to do with an American president
Seal Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Now I´m curious, a Mac with engrish as a second language? Does not compute:big_grin: How about: test jar evil in burg Recreational flying has too many letters for me
Guest Macnoz Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 it should compute as Mac is the Gaelic and Irish word for son. so Mc or Mac before a name is "son of" as "O" before a name is abbreviation for "As" Irish word prounnced os which is "out of" in much the same way as horses are described Irish is my first language having been born raised and schooled in the west of Ireland where even English was and in some cases such as the Islands off the coast still is, taught through Irish.
Seal Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Interesting. Coming from here I still find it amazing that so many languages survive in such tiny areas. The social dynamic must be incredibly powerful. However, the part I was having trouble with was the juxtaposition of ¨Mac¨ and ¨engrish¨, the l-r substitution is generally associated with another part of the world. I guess you were referring to the Irish version of english. Cheers.
