I'd say they were 'queued up', but if I wasn't allowed to say 'queued up' I'd say 'lined up'.

Yes, Vee, I think I'm the only Brit in this thread, possibly the board (except for the BB threads). Or maybe the others just keep quiet :-).

Tishala, thank you for proving that some folks do say standing on line. This was exactly what my source said, but I was beginning to doubt. In fact, my source said that folks are about evenly divided...hmmmmmm.

No one using valises anymore? Perhaps that's an archaic word for suitcase. Stilts are also known as johnnywalkers and wishbones are known as pullybones and luckybones.

I hate to drop the ball (egg?) here, but I am currently all out of ideas. It's been a lot of fun. I leave you with one of my favorite breakfasts...egg. I call it a dropped egg, but I know that many of you call it poached.

Have a happy breakfast and a great weekend!

Vee, I think "standing on line" is mostly a NY thing. I know I picked it up because I spent large portions of my childhood on the eastern end of Long Island and everybody there to Manhattan said it.

Pantyhose, otherwise known as something you spend a lot of money on and are able to wear once before getting a snag or run in them.

Stockings, by contrast, require a garter belt or the modern equivalent of elastic tops to stay up. Altogether much more economical (if one gets a run, the other is still good), but generally less comfortable.

My choice? Wear pants or very long skirts so you don't need to wear these torture devices! :-)

These are fun! Can I try a few?

What do you call...

the top blanket on your bed?

this kind of cooking pot?

the skin-colored make up we use to hide zits and blemishes?

this flat-leaf herb used in many Asian dishes?

this garnment that is half skirt, half shorts?
