rennyba: there are some who consider that to be a fundamental law of the universe - the universe gives you more of what you focus on.

freckled-one: I don’t think I have worn out any words lately.
tin-tin: I don't know, it probably was a blue-screen of death moment (BSOD) at the time.
matt: I didn't feel like such a genius, especially since I went and looked it up.
mary: Thanks for leaving a comment mary. Generally, learning a foreign language is hard. Especially if it is very different from your native tongue. I would suggest you get a blogger account and then people can interact with you on your blog.
