freecounterpoint: Of course Tecs wants badly to go to Abilene

Sunday, August 29, 2010

Tecs ululates all the way to Abilene.

Tecumseh said...: What's Abilene? Some kind of dinky town in the middle of nowhere in the Texan puszta?; 8/29/2010 8:33 PM
Mr roT said...: I am glad you put the Hungarian there. I was thinking you meant pula, from a nearby language.

Actually, the Abilene thing is described here in this newfangled wikipaedia thingy.

Heard of it?; 8/29/2010 8:56 PM
Tecumseh said...: The city of Pula is in Croatia, which is indeed nearby Hungary. But the relief there has nothing to do with Texas. On the other hand, the Hungarian puszta is very much like the Texas prairie, from what I gather. Not that I've ever been to either Texas, or Hungary -- just guessing, that's all.; 8/29/2010 9:41 PM
Mr roT said...: I think the putz is very similar to the pula if you choose the right languages.; 8/30/2010 5:24 AM
Tecumseh said...: The name of the city comes from Latin: Colonia Pietas Iulia Pola Pollentia Herculanea. They eat polenta there?; 8/30/2010 10:41 AM
Mr roT said...: Yeah, and then they stick their pulas in each other's colons or something.

Sounds like a Kayla town to me.; 8/30/2010 11:53 AM
