#10 BD - I'm not making fun in any way - she's a work of art and I suggest she's perfectly, um, balanced and symmetrical! I enjoyed Howard's excursion into American English immensely! It was hysterical watching the pieces fall into place - one by excrutiating one - which sent Dave spiraling and left me with a quandry to solve! Trust me, she does not need saving from us in that sense, lol!

#11 Indeed, .com. Balanced and symmetrical never let me down. Balanced and symmetrical: guaranteed to win mother's appproval.

If she needs a shoulder to cry on - 's all I'm saying....

#14 BD - you scurvy swine! You've got the inside track! Lol!

YS - Not quite symmetrical to mine exceptionally well-trained eye... But a juicy comment, nonetheless!

Frank G - Yes - an excellent site... which yielded:

Howard UK - Check this page out and you are thus vindicated! All thanks to Frank G, the Lynxmeister!

#15 I am NOT "spiralling," just wishing I'd been born about 40 years later than I was.

#20 Somehow I don't think that this belongs in the "Short Attention Span Theater" section. It's been holding my interest for some time now.

#28 And the Muslims protesting for Sharia law fall silent . . . and the mullahs' heads explode . . .
Don't I wish. Can't say anything more; girlfriend might see this.
