Could someone explain to me what this means:
“You’ve spun so many tales it’s hard to keep track”?

Forgive me for my ignorance my friends- but English is my 3-rd language. I speak English very well; however, I sometimes have difficulty understanding idioms like this one: I don’t understand the “spun so many tales”!

I kind of understand it but I’m not sure. “Spun” comes from “spin” >> which means to turn, rotate, gyrate something. The “so many” in my opinion means: “done something many times”.

“Tales” in my opinion means the –the main subject that is not written –but applied.
“Tales” is the topic or main idea for what the conversation takes place.

So, in my opinion the “spun so many tales” means: You have done “it” so many times, which “it” in this case is the main idea of the conversation or dialogue.

So my conclusion is: “you have done-what you have done for many times”, repeat-ably.

I would like to give to all of you the points but I will try to understand who is going to provide me the best information and explanation of this idiom.

I Thank All of You for Your Time and Effort.

as far as I know Catholicism introduced Christianity to the world, and it is the original Christian religion, so what's with all the "Catholics are not Christians" all about?

those Protestants owe their beliefs from the Catholic religion. if the Catholic Church is wrong in how they worship and serve God and and His people, then who can say what's wrong and what's right among the Protestants when Protestantism is just an off-shoot from Catholicism? even the Bible the Protestants use came from the Catholic Church.

so, if Catholicism is not a Christian religion, then there's no Christian religion, and all claiming to be Christians of today are not Christians at all.


*note: I'm not Catholic, but I know the facts.

(I have been a silent observer concerning Catholics vs Protestants, so I thought of asking this question.)

I know this question is pretty generic, but I am sick of being taken advantage of in the car buying/selling process. It doesn't seem like a single car dealership can be trusted to do the right thing for consumers. I know there are many online alternatives as well as advertising locally, but can anyone recommend any that are reliable, trustworthy, and effective?

anyone who challenges her statements. I went to read her other questions these were so ridiculous and she won't let anyone read her questions or answers, you can't add her as a contact or even does she allow anyone who doesn't believe her or go along with her lies. Doesn't that make you wonder about how honest people are if you cannot see anything about them? They don't allow critisim, makes everything they say suspect. How do you feel about people who do that?

I like him well enough. He a good person, not too many negatives and a pretty likeable guy. I think he can handle DC politics, domestic issues and foreign policy.

However, the Democrats are forcing me to vote for him. Why? Their shrill attacks on him even before he annouced for the race. They fear him. He's a bigger star than Rudy, more appealing than Obama and can CRUSH Hillary on just about anything.

In the end, any person who causes the Liberals to scream like little girls must be pretty good. The last guy to do that was Reagan. Is there anybody better out there?

Well this would all be fine and dandy if not for the fact that there is so much hatred between each islamic sect.
If america and Europe became muslim states, then which? Shi'aa? cos then we'd have the sunni on our backs.
Curd or Yazidis? well then we'd be killed off by more orthodox sects...so it won't really make a difference.
Bin Laden is TAPPED! how can you trust a man's promise of peace when he is happy to send hundreds of youths to their death.

Besides, theocrasies DO NOT WORK >< haha

My neighbor is trying to sue us because out chow dog bit her inside our home. I held the dog back and she only suffered a superifical wound. No blood, she is now threating to put a lein on everything we own if we get the chow back after the 10 days observation at the animal shelter. The dog is always behind a fenced yard and for some reason has always hated this woman. She is black we are white, and she stated my dad has trained the dog to hate black people, which is not true.The chow dog had always had a hatred for black people, dont know why? I know this sounds crazy but it is true. Please advise me does she have a chance of winning if she sues us. We have offered to pay for her tetanus and doctor bill. But like I said the wound was minor. She has turned this into a racial thing, and we have always been friends since she moved in. My dad is prejudicious but me and my mom are not. We cant control my dad he wants the dog back but me and my mom do not. Does she have a good case?

Before I buy a 1894 Nagant.. I would like to know if any one knows a web site or someone that still sells and has them in stock the .32ACP cylinder.
I have been to most of the usual sites to no avail and have run out of new ones.
I will not use .32 in the gun I can get original rounds but my local range will only let us shoot their ammo and they don't have 7.62x38r and will not stock it.
Best Wishes

I was wondering because everyone says we are out to "turn" other people gay. How many of you feel as if you were "turned" gay? I have yet to find any evidence that this is plausible. No matter how much they may try and claim it so.
