|  Firefox Browser - ScrapBook Extension Someone over on the UKWorkshop forum was asking if it is possible to save individual threads which they found particularly interesting. One of the mods there (Chris) mentioned that users of the Firefox browser can install an extension called ScrapBook which will do this. I've just installed ScrapBook into my browser and it's the bees knees  . I'm sure other forum members here will also find it useful for keeping track of their favorite threads.Gill

| I guess it's yet another of those phrases that haven't crossed the Atlantic... I'm not quite sure how that saying came about, but it's much politer than the other phrase we use: it's the mutt's nuts! Actually, there's an even cruder variant which is much more prevalent, but I'm not going to mention it here.  Gill

| The Oxford English Dictionary records the expression bee's knee as meaning the type of something small or insignificant from 1797. The plural form is US slang dating from the 1920s, when there was an explosion of terms meaning 'the acme of excellence': compare the cat's whiskers/pyjamas. The first example is dated 1923. Some of these have lasted, and some have not (the flea's eyebrows, the canary's tusks). Most of this slang was part of the speech of the " flappers " of that era

| Dang, we went from slang terms that were actually funny to hear to modern day slang like "Fo' Shizzle". Now can someone tell me what the heck that is?
