No apologies are necessary, Kayla. It's just that a couple of times here, when I meant no offense, members have let me know that they felt attacked. I just wanted you (and everyone) to know that it is not my intention to attack.
But, oh, how I enjoy a good mockery... <-- the winky graemlin lets everyone know that I'm harmless.

Approximately 75 percent of Americans pronounce aunt like ant. I'd say you're one of the few people who still says it wrong. Posts: 9945 | Registered: Sep 2002

You know, every time I see the subject line of this thread, I hear George Harrison singing "The pain that often lingers," with his incredibly clear ennunciation of the "t" in the word "often". I love Beware of Darkness, but I'm actually starting to get a little sick of hearing it, or at least that line of it.
