The question mark and the end of your post suggests you are trying to trick me in outing Ezra as Satan , I would never do that to the dark lord :twisted:

I'd prefer tea but I don't think you get to be picky in The Dark Lords house

I have finally worked out that I have been using the word 'it's' as a possessive it.

It's only taken me about 40 years to realise this.

I will start to use 'its' properly now. :oops:

So she passed on her hard earned lesson to make sure you didn't suffer the same fate - good old mother.

I wonder what other things she taught you? :wink:

I can type in perfect technical English for many hours, annunciation however eludes my lazy Colorado accent.

many, many things, but notably, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all," and "Troublesome people are often people in trouble."

My biggest problem is typing how I talk .

So the use of its and it's is not my biggest faux pas.

I imagine both of these have probably helped your relationships over the years.

My problem is remembering to use both of these unspoken rules instead of just when I want to.
