the rain in spain falls mainly in the mountains, the plains tend to be hot and dry.

So, "The rain in spain stays mainly in the plain" was a lie?!

I always suspected Rex Harrison wasn't to be trusted! :|

prof. henry Higgins valued results and was a pragmatist in terms of how he got them. if that meant bending the facts to make for a better elocution exercise, then so be it. :dj: IOW he was trying to teach eliza Doolittle to not say "RYE-n" instead of "RAY-n."

Sometimes, I'll be doing something like editing a picture on the computer and suddenly, the perfectionist will come out in me and I'll zoom in to 800% and I won't walk away from there until it's pixel perfect but it's not a burden. That's something else that recharges me! I can sit up to 3 or 4 in the morning doing that, catch a few hours shut eye and then get up and go to work. :D

Or if I'm programming and I come across a problem I find difficult to solve, i can sit there until the early hours trying to find a solution to it and I won't rest until i do!

I've never not come up with a solution. (Is that gooder English?)

I much preferred the way Eliza spoke.

"Come on, Dover! Move your bloomin' arse!"
