They might be called that in the same way that in the American South, respect is shown to your elders by calling - for example - your mother's friends 'Miss _____' whatever their first name is. They might have a different, shared last name which has not before been mentioned. (Mr. and Mrs. Shaker pops to mind) Or else it's like me and my DH. We are married and yet I didn't take his last name, though I do use it some (like in my sig line or when talking to the guy who was reading the gas meter). On the other hand, you may be right. After all, a 'blue' movie is borderline porno. Therefore, 'Blues Clues' must be giving you hints to its true, salacious nature.

Congratulations to the new parents. I mean, Mrs Pepper is obviously married to someone else - where is > the absent Mr Pepper? I suspect that like many married women with a career, Mrs Pepper is simply using her maiden name at work. Undoubtedly when she is not in the studio, she calls herself Mrs Salt (or possibly Mrs Pepper-Salt). I am quite concerned that she has not taken maternity leave, and hope that she is able to cope with her filming schedule with her newborn to worry about. I assume she had a straightforward delivery as she has a generous opening underneath.

Cheeky chirpy green jumpered Scouser called (also occasional " reporter " on Holiday on BBC1) lives in an animated house with his cartoon dog, Blue, and a cast of other animated characters including Mr Salt and Mrs Pepper, Post Box, Bucket and Spade. Whilst sings and dances his way through the day, Blue, frustrated by her inability to communicate and 's failure to grasp the blindingly obvious, leaves a number of " clues " (three to be precise) in the form of footprints for to find and deduce what it is she needs. After much hilarity and educational stuff, writes all the clues down in his " Super Dooper Notebook " and sits down in his " Thinking Chair " to think, think, thi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hink. Then they do whatever it is that Blue wants to do. And sing some more songs. loves it and apparently Blues Clues toys are going to be the next big thing.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2001 Report Share Posted March 8, 2001 The WORST thing about it is they show the same episode 5 days a week at the same time -and justify it by saying that toddlers learn more by repitition!!! No wonder we parents have to repeat things 5 times to get children to listen (hang your coat up...eat your tea....you get the gist) So maybe the peppers have quintuplets........each must have been adopted at birth as there is never any mention of older siblings. and Mrs P must have amnesia too ...I blame the pethedine. Only way I can get through it is to watch for continuity errors, especially watch the 'hand' shots - writing into the notebook. The UK (coloured) is patched into the US version where the -type is a white American.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2001 Report Share Posted March 19, 2001 Oooh I can empathise with him, tell him. I reckon it was C's luverly yummy tea, a trip round Castleford freeport, (no shoes - sob!) and a non stop school run combined with swimming meaning I had no opportunity to go to the toilet every 5 minutes that did it. And can I get an award for the longest sentence please. Sue feeling rather chipper (ha!) Oooh and thanks for the real coffee/tea morning - we will do it again before I go... fab131 wrote: > OUCH!
