chatting back and forth Explanation: . -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 mins (2004-05-27 20:01:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry, read your explanation later... I\'d say CHITCHAT -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 mins (2004-05-27 20:04:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- If you wanna be witty, you could say CHIT FOR CHAT which is a play on the phrase \'tit for tat\' which basically means back and forth, one for the other, as well as the term \'chitchat\' which means friendly, small talk. CHIT FOR CHAT -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 mins (2004-05-27 20:08:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- \'pep talk\' has a completely different meaning. |
