Clever advertisement:

To give someone the slip

*** semer quelqu'un
[sens figuré] Se défaire de quelqu'un d'importun.

*** give someone the slip
[figuratively] to escape from a pursuer

(eg. "We were on his tail until he gave us the slip.")

What girls want

This list was compiled by a girl called Hayley from Essex (UK). At first I though she was Leo, but she is not and I know nothing about women.

1. Ask her to dance.


2. On windy days, brush wayward strands of hair from her eyes and mouth.


3. When she’s coming down the street, across the room, or up the stairs to meet you, walk towards her as soon as you see her.


4. Kiss her between her shoulder blades when she turns her back to you to go to sleep.


5. Put your arm around her when you introduce her to your friends and family.


6. Grasp her hand when a scantily dressed, beautiful woman walks by.


7. Call her when you’re feeling sad.


8. Kiss her eyelids.


9. Ask to see a picture of her when she was a child.


10. Wash her from head to toe in the shower.

12. Stand her naked on a sturdy chair and lick between her legs.


13. Occasionally call her by her first and middle names.


14. Buy her your favourite rock album of all time on vinyl.


15. Order coffee for her, remembering exactly how she likes it.


16. Undress her and put her to bed when she falls asleep in the car.


17. Mention your upcoming anniversary before she does.

20. Call her just before you get on the plane.


21. Pick her clothes up off the floor.


22. Try desperately to make her laugh when she’s feeling down.


23. Take her to see your favourite sport live. Pay more attention to her than to the game.


24. Touch her arm when you leave the table to go to the bathroom. Touch her again when you come back.

Lucy Kellaway - FT.com podcast - The battle is lost, going forward

Better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.
– MARK TWAIN.

I would like to recommend this podcast about "Jargon fighting". When it comes down to fighting jargon and pomposity, LUCY KELLAWAY does it better than anyone else!

This podcast is about the use and abuse of the expression "going forward" among the English economists and businessmen; a bit like the expression "au jour d'aujourd'hui" is a disgraceful lingustical abberation spread by journalists in France. Finally, this is a podcast about those people who try to look smart, and who end up looking stupid.
