    If all is to be believed from what people post - there is such great sadness and lack of morals in the world. People who do not value their own life and therefore cannot value another's life. Also, I have learned, people misrepreent themselves to make their story more believable and sympathetic. Isn't that just like life? Lol

    Dictionary definitions don't cut it for me, my boy.

    I am trying to find a useful grammar link but as usual, high traffic volume is stopping me. I guess I will have to pull out my American grammar book. Hmmm. Now where did I put it? I will get back to you on that one, my friend.

    Another thing I have learned is what George Bernard Shaw said so long ago: Youth is wasted on the young!

    Didn't forget at all. Not at all my friend... Is any other country's usage of grammar of any consequence to AMERICANS? :p

    Actually Benny boy, look at the top section of your dictionary definition.

    "LEARNT
    –verb (used with object)"

    Ruby,

    Can you read it? Then be thankful. Not that it has anything to do with it but I'm Brit too, and I swear if it wasn't for my spell checker you would think you were on a forum for puzzlers and quiz addicts. Lol

    BR, my favorite forms of entertainment!

    Okay. I will shut up now. Apologies Ben. You know I love you. And, if you don't then your wife knows I love her and that should be enough.

    Ruby, I counter your negation with the classic WIBBLE defense.

    Learned and learnt are both valid, just like spelled and spelt or Ruby and Woobah.

    Everybody is in love with everybody else. Just human nature. Nice for you to vent here but have you learnt how to vent from people on this site? Have a nice day, sorry but the day is over. Lol

    Take care of yourself. New York, New York. I am surprised you do not have more attitude. Just kidding, just kidding.

    How to be diplomatic. To listen to Chuck. That allot of people don't know how good they have "it". What I don't understand is why people seem to post and then never check back?
