When the Teenager was about six years old, we watched "Much Ado About Nothing" on television. She loved it; so much so, that when we went to visit my grandmother later that day, she gushed "Nana, I have to tell you about this new guy called Shakespeare. He's really good."

We speak the English language in South Africa - ie (that is) the Queens English and alas, you Americans just.had.to.go.and.change.it and make up your own! *lol*. Did you hear about the American who went to London and asked for the way to the elevator? The doorman pointed him in the direction of the lift. The American said it was called an elevator because "we" invented it. The doorman answered, we call it a lift because we invented the English language. *rofl*.

Alas this word is now taking over my own damn vocabulary.
