i am rosemary, apparently.
and i'm not so sure about the pronunciation of 'herb'. i've always pronounced it without the 'h', that's just the way that i was taught, but i suppose it is acceptable either way. i do find that when i watch chefs on food network, they tend to use the 'h', which leads me to believe that is the proper way.
i must check out this program you wrote about. and yes, barney is crap! but teletubbies and boo-bah are totally scary (and i believe those are creations from your neck of the woods? hehe).
so glad to see you back.

I'm basil too.


I can only remember one song from the herbs. And then its only a line about tarragon the dragon.

I got moly, same as Tam. What the hell is moly, anyway?

I say pronounce the 'h'.

I was mandrake

:(

i drive people insane

I'm moly, too.
And I do not pronounce the "h" in herb. I'm American, dammit. ;-)

Damn! i wanna be mandrake!Driving people insane is MY job! (See "job description" thing in Profile).

But Dani, pronouncing Herbs without an Aitch in it just sounds so, so... common! (heh!)

And while i'm here:

B... what the hell is a "Boo-bah"?!?! I'm familiar with the Teletubbies from stoned/drunk early mornings of a misspent "youth" though, and think they're great.

"Again! Again!" i say.
and also
"Eh-oh! Wheredjer bobbin'?"

"Away-away!"

i'm a rosemary herb too like b ... :)
(p.s. there are herbs and then there are 'h'erbs... pending on which one we're talking here).

Oh the controversy of it all!

I feel quite faint just thinking about it.

I am right of course. Mainly because God spoke to me in a dream, wearing the form of a tomato... and he said "Tell them bloody Americans that their diction is rubbish and that herbs definitely has a "H" in it when spoken. Also, that they drive on the wrong side of the road, and that all drivers should drive on the left, like those marvellous English people that i'm so fond of..."

At least i think it was God. It might just have been a talking tomato. With a grudge.

oh, he must've been a rotten tomato. i heard that tomatoes don't like americans anyway, so his remarks are not at all surprising.
stella! how could i have forgotten that other herb?!?! geez, has it been that long? guess so.
i must admit that the first time that i saw teletubbies was just after an early morning 'bake'. i was in a hotel room in atlanta flipping thru the tv channels and came across it. i was totally scared by it. but, now that boo-bah is out, teletubbies seem pretty sane. apparently boo-bah is created by the teletubbies folks. they are different colored round things that giggle a lot and fart.

Good god! Well i consider England revenged upon America for kicking us out and installing it's own "democracy" after seeing that. And now i see it's on our tee-vee this afternoon... i shall watch... with eyes afearful.

So now Ye ole England is avenged, that just leaves, The Indians (american ones), Africans, Mexicans, parts of Europe, most of the Far East, All of the Middle East (except Israel), Russia, and healthy parts of South America. Plus Cuba. And whales. And if i've missed anyone out, i'm sure they will remind us when this Global Warming malarkey REALLY starts to bite...

It's not much fun being an ordinary American at the moment, i'm thinking. Still... i love you, regardless of yer gov.

The Herbs used to scare the bejesus out of me.

Anyway, I'm Catnip, apparently.

My cat used to get driven to ridiculous heights of sexual excitement by catnip.

That scares the bejesus out of me!

Hehe Starbuck. Cats looove you!

Hmm... time for another post...
