Guest guest Posted March 10, 2000 Report Share Posted March 10, 2000 Vikas-- I'm surprised you would choose the name carnival. It literally means " celebration of meat " ., a time before Lent to use up all the meat and fats and sugar in the house before the 40 day Lenten fast. Most romance languages carne- or carni- is the root word for meat..... I know to some people it just means a good time, so I apologize if this caused offense.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2000 Report Share Posted March 11, 2000 Ee gat! I am going blind! Nadine, what are you talking about ... porn? what porn? Oh no, there is hair growing on my palms!! Oh, and Carol .. I am so deeply offended ... I think some censorship is in order in the room! Barton? Where are you when we need you? All kidding aside, Carol ... that reference point never once crossed my mind (carne) ... how silly of me?!!!?!?!?!! I guess to me, and most other people, Carnival infers a side/freak show .. that travelled around ... and I sort of dug that ... But, again, thanks for pointing that out .. and, of course, no offense will ever be taken ... All the best ... Vik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
