Taking Chances, by E. L. Van Hine and L.H. Nicoll

All right so with the latest chapter, MadLori posts on Louise's LJ that this chapter makes her think of Foreigner's song,

"..Foreigner started singing in my head. I wanna know what love is...I want you to shaowwwww me..."


Oy-vey, now I have that damn song in my head. An ohrwurm it's called iin German (thanks Louise). No word for it in English.

Facepalm is right, Lori! LOL

There absolutely IS a word for it in English...it's called an "earworm," which sounds like the same word in German.

I'm new and I just registered.  This is my first post so hope I'm doing it right.  The whole forum layout is a little confusing to me here.

Hey NavyVet,

Welcome. Yes, you are doing it right.

Join the club of the addicted and obssessed. We are a fun and happy group and glad to have you here.

For the galleries and pictures....yes, you can click through the 3000+ posts that we have here (all of which are very funny and entertaining, I might add) or you can head on over to the "Fanfiction & Poetry" forum. Lucise has kindly gathered our various galleries together in one place which makes them easier to peruse.

There are also links over there for other stories you might enjoy reading.

Glad to have you here with us at Bettermost!

I know that is how it translates into English, but I have never heard anyone use that term. I mean, have you ever heard anyone say, "Oh, God, I've got an earworm of that Foreigner song?" I haven't. I hear people say, "Oh, God, I have that song from Foreigner stuck in my head."

But then again, Lori, you're a flatlander...things are different outside of the northeast....maybe they do talk that way.... (Leslie ducks and runs from rotten tomatoes which she is sure are coming her way).

Note on Spoilers:

I know of a half dozen NEW (i.e. starting from "Taking Chances") readers who I have invited to join our forum discussion here.  For those of you who are all caught up and feeling smug and excited to chat about the new chapters here, please be mindful and put SPOILER! on plot discussions.  Some people get a little discombobulated (and others avoid the forum thread) when they have the plot spoiled.
