Nothing is bigger than the universe. Some rich people want to have nothing. Poor people have nothing. If we eat nothing, we will die. |

Wow Jamie, you're a genius. I think you've got Rosalisa's riddle correct. And thanks for the jokes/one-liners. I'm still trying to understand some. Good practice for me.Thanks!
------------------------------------------------------------------------- Amy I still don't get it but give me some more time. I've been trying to find what's funny with Mary Poppin the whole day. Now that you've mentioned UK soccer I'd have to read some on that before I completely understand it. Thanks anyway!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rosa, (can I call you this?)
Nina is a very common name. I even have a friend with the same name. I would like to try harder but I think Jamie has got the correct answer.Hehe.
p/s: By the way my sister's name is also Lisa from 'Nuraishah Nurhalisa'. She's pregnant now and due this coming April, I was about to have the baby named after me but it's a boy(the first boy in the family).Next time maybe.

Amy I just opened the link you gave, but I don't think it's funny but I think it's clever (because it rhymes with Mary Poppin's thingy)
I guess different background made us receive things differently (ー_-#) |

That's often the difficulty with humor in a foreign language. I remember when I first went to Germany there were certain types of "German jokes" or humor that I just didn't get or think funny. It took me years to be able to appreciate some of them. |

Why not? Nino is not an unusual name in some parts of the world. |

Well, from my part of the world, it is unusual, I think.Not bad for a nickname though.I can tell 'Nino' when he's big enough to understand me, that a friend had given him the name
p/s: were you serious when you suggested the name? I thought you were just teasing me(#^。^#) |

Yes. I was perfectly serious.
But you never know what's a good name in some country or which is not. I know a man from Indonesia whose nickname is Didi. He has kept this nickname in the United States. He must be very confident of his masculinity, because in this country Didi is a name for a little girl. |

Didi sounds unisex to me.
