America was then the best-plumbed nation in the world, the bathrooms, artistic and beautiful, novel and complete, are a revelation. Rudy (not his real name) knows of the difficulties that indisciminate toilet-seat use can cause. tall and flabby, he rarely parts his hair. some days, he feels like a wet Texas sweet onion. why, your own daughter was seven months pregnant before you even noticed, and then you --

you thought she was just overweight! the kids were right.

"nous gagnons."

"Jesus ...," she mumbled. "... look at all them coloreds... you all right in here? then she remembered how Sally had mysteriously disappeared and Janet's cynical explanation. therein lay a problem. all toilet bowls were round, and centrifugal force could thus force the entering water to flow upward, so that a drip tray -- ominously called the "save-all tray" -- was standard equipment. having conjoined (A + B), we might derive (B + A). they are objects, foci upon which my attention is fixed -- not signs, vehicles by which my attention is conveyed. and there is the advertising. a red octagon with white borders and letters appearing at the end of an exit off the highway announces the necessity to stop. the so-called correspondence theory of truth has been rejected by some highly influential contemporary thinkers.

his closest friend is Harry Elmo Radich, a Ringo-type drummer and quiet beer drinker. a brown paper bag has been placed on his head, then squashed. he toys with a golden paper clip and complacently proffers the end of his tie. Boone leans back and complacently sucks on a massive phallic symbol disguised as a cigar. anti-semitism is trotted out in new clothes. that element of the clause which is in first position is known as the theme, and everything that follows it is the rheme. pink coatings are much in demand, and FD&C Red No. 3 (dye) is fugitive to light while FD&C Red No. 2 produces unsatisfactory shades. even toilet seats were available in colors (but rarely flavors). "they already know," Mr. Blue said, why was it that crooks and liars always used that phrase? here are a few remarks which may help you in your evaluation and use of this text.

3.3 Categorical iconicity revisited

microorganisms contaminate our air, water and food in relatively low numbers.

"look," he sighed. "can I help it if the girl got hot pants?"

"dont you say that about her!" not many of my readers suspect that, in addition to my well-known knack of expressing petty irritation in terms of high-sounding, moralistic scorn, I also possess an ability to create poetry of great confusion and charm. threats by the much disliked Carruthers Brothers and the imminent danger they pose are unable to dissuade the bedraggled varmint from telling everything to anyone who happens along. wood? tile? linoleum? if our experiences are in any sense typical, we are certain the mere mention of the word "grammar" will produce in you an immediate feeling of severe nausea, and we begin this book with that certainty firmly in mind.

private homeowners, of course, are not subjected to the rigorous authenticity required of museums. quickly (if not immediately), however, such a "zero degree" or "absence of style is seen for what it is -- a distinctive or unique style

if this means what I think it means, I hope I misunderstand it. a president appearing on television with a minister at his side may intend to signify the righteousness of the cause to which he is calling the nation. the mountains, lately, have been visible in her dreams.

black marks parade in disciplined fashion across numbered pages. in one case, these marks report what had just happened elsewhere; in another, they chronicle what occurred long ago; in a third, they create a world that has never existed nor even could. bees crawl on the quartered slices in the pan. the photographers will be down there.

the utility, the convenience, the sanitary and economic advantages of a well-planned, well-equipped bathroom are now almost universally acknowledged. "and yet," Tabitha replies, "recent studies suggest, and so forth, et cetera."

"on fait bien le guerre, non?"

a man stood just inside with a shotgun guarding what looked like a scene from an operating room. that remark is to be contrasted with the utterance: "That is a _____," where the blank may be filled in with any well-formed description in English. this suggests a class of possible alternative analyses of the switch-reference relation, which preserve the definition of the relation as indicating co- or disjoint reference, at the expense of redefining the switch-reference pivot. this last example, from Hsilgne, or English, illustrates one of the initial difficulties often encountered by people when they are first exposed to linguistics: namely, the question of what the content of linguistics could be.

Mr. Blue smiled. "shall I turn the sound up or down?"

ascorbic acid is often a desired ingredient in beverages, either for its vitamin activity or as a flavor protector, in which case it protects by scavenging the oxygen in the headspace air. materials from nature which fall into the category of unintentional food additives include radionuclides, a variety of material in the water used for preparing foods and the dirty residues, such as insect parts and excreta (which typified food of the "good old days" more than it does today). that night they took him out of his cell, led him trembling into the interrogation room, and they waited patiently as the sickness came over him more strongly -- the chills, leg cramps, violent nausea and explosive diarrhea.

3.3 Discontinuity
the scrap of pride left Fisher then, and his terror returned.
Fisher grunted ?Yum,? and Gumbie turned his back on him.
Wittgenstein now interpreted veil-penetrating visions of the
world as conceptual worries or cramps, and predicted, wrongly,
that they would be cured by his method. to show that this is
true, consider the following examples:
E13. (a) Never tell a lie.

    under Spanish colonial rule the African inhabitants of Fernando Poo (mostly Bubis) and those of Rio Muni (mostly Fang)

    the phrase median divider is a good example of stupid talk,
since it has the potential to confuse at least some drivers

"some of his poems happen to be very good," said Paula, a fat

blouse embroidered with flowers. in the past few years there
has been such an upsurge of interest in the field of generative
transformational grammar that every few months has seen the

Gumbie whispered, "get me out of here." in other words,
deduction proves that something must be the case; induction
shows that something actually is the case; and abduction suggests
that something might be the case (CP 5.171). the trend toward
the ideal of the athletic star on the part of the leading crowds
is due in part to the fact that the leading crowds include a
great number of athletes. you can tell them by their subdued
