Dear teacher:
Thank you very much. Could you please tell me the meaning of the phrases in the following sentences?
a)Sales are up, and our new line of ceramic cookware is a hot seller, no pun intended.
What does "no pun intended" mean here?
b)The project manager should document the project’s goals and assume that the project is a go.
What is the meaning of "go" here?
c)Historical information from the recent blood drive project
What is a "blood drive project"?
'Hot' is the word the person is referring to as it can mean selling well, but also has the associations with heat, being an oven. It's not a very funny joke.
A go = one to move forward with
Blood drive project = a project to encourage people to give blood (I presume)
