yeah, I wondered about that too... but why can't US citizens go that way as well? if they travel from some third country, and Cuba doesn't stamp passports...?

They (we) can, we're just not supposed to. I know USC's who've bent the rules and gone to Cuba.

And as soon as I get my Canadian passport, I'm going! Course, it's entirely possible that by the time that happens USCs will be allowed to go.

But why wouldn´t we be supposed to? When someone is an American citizen and another country citizen as well why would the rule have to be to only use the American passport everywhere? Anyways, I´m not gonna go there without Scott so I´ll wait till he can too :)

wow, StP, it's day for you now? Weird how this funny world works. Silly things I really should be used to by now, like time difference, still blow my mind.

It´s funny that you say that cuz today I realized I still sometimes think STP is in Australia. But I always manage to correct myself :P

Maybe its me, but it always bugs me when someone refers to his/her SO as "my baby".

I see these thread titles referring to "finally being with my baby" and I immediately think of an infant. :blink:

Or they'll say, I just posted new pics of my baby. So I open the thread expecting to see a cute lil baby, and instead I get some inapprpriately dressed chick trying to look sexy.

What do you guys think? Isn't it kinda weird? Or am I turning into a curmudgeon? :unsure:

I agree with you completely, it drives me nuts! :girlwerewolf2xn:

I think you only get it from those people who think that their love is better and stronger than anyone else's. Personally, I think it shows a certain level of insecurity in them, this constant need to show the world how much they are in love. Or perhaps I'm just getting old! :lol:

Well, since I'm certainly not getting old, then you can't be either!! :star:

And that settles it - it is definitely them, not us!!! :lol:

I'll third it :D

I use it sometimes, when speaking to Dave, but not otherwise ;)

I'll also register an EXTREME distaste for the word 'hubby', wherever I encounter it, but that's just a personal prejudice ;)

The Very Secret Diary of Legolas Son of Weenus - by Cassandra Claire

Day One: Went to Council of Elrond. Was prettiest person there. Agreed to follow some tiny little man to Mordor to throw ring into volcano. Very important mission - gold ring so tacky.

Day Six: Far too dark in Mines of Moria to brush hair properly. Am very afraid I am developing a tangle.

Orcs so silly.

Still the prettiest.

Day 35: Boromir dead. Very messy death, most unnecessary. Did get kissed by Aragorn as he expired. Does a guy have to get shot full of arrows around here to get any action? Boromir definitely not prettier than me. Cannot understand it. Am feeling a pout coming on.

Frodo off to Mordor with Sam. Tiny little men caring about each other, rather cute really.

Am quite sure Gimli fancies me. So unfair. He is waist height, so can see advantages there, but chunky braids and big helmet most off-putting. Foresee dark times ahead, very dark times.

Oh, and me too! Loathe that worrd with a passion! I used to work with a woman whose every sentence started with, "Hubby says...."

It drove me mad!!!!!

P.S. I don't ever call Griff 'baby', however, I will say things like, 'hey babe' to get his attention. I NEVER refer to him as my baby.

I think if you actually have some REAL babies this distinction would become more important... in any case, I prefer 'sweetie' and 'honey' and even 'chick' ;)

Griff calls me an interesting array of terms of endearment, including all of the above, plus his most favorite 'chuck'. I also get 'duck' and 'love' quite a bit, along with the odd "hen" and "pet".

my Grandma always used to call me 'pet'! :)

'hen' and 'chuck' are very British :)

I like them too :)

I like having silly names... not 'Squidgy' and 'Ickle Patootie' and gumph of that ilk, but for example if you're being silly, we always say you're being a 'munchkin'... and of course the Australian term of endearment/epithet 'dag' comes into play a lot ;)

Scott and I will refer to each other as baby and lots of other silly pet names, but yeah, I would never say "my baby" to refer to him when speaking to someone else.

I have a friend who used to be married who would refer to his wife as "The Wife" and I always hated that; find it rather sexist. Like back in the days when husbands would refer to their wives as "My old lady". I hope it's all back in the days, anyhow.

:lol: But if someone uses the word "hen" on you in Czech, be sure they think you are stupid and they are being rude to you :D I think it doesn´t matter what people call themselves in private but in public it´s rather silly to talk about your SO as if he/she was your baby :P
