Near is "near", sort of like is, "is"! TnT

Hm......

You know, I'm beginning to think you're toying with me.

I resent that

Wolfgang

Is that what was going on with the "is, is" thing?

I don't know what that means.

Sorry Wolfgang, I did not mean to toy with you especially if English is
not your mother tongue and you did not understand. I am refering to a
statement made by our recent President Clinton, who when ask a question
regarding the Lewenski affair, defined the meaning of the word -"is, as
is." The whole definition was rediculous. You ask me to define near,
and I thought you were toying with me, so I responded by refering to
the previous situation.

Now in addition to not understanding English, I understand that you may
not be familiar with US geography, to know where Denver is located.
Denver is in the state of Colorado, and the locations you listed are
not near or adjacent to Denver where I live. I would not want to drive
very far, several hundred miles, to get a drink. The Fins most likely
have local pubs where they inbibe, or other locations close to their
homes where they can enjoy their healthful libations.

I begin to understand,

Do you? Hm.......we'll see.

and would certainly understand you resenting it.

Now I hope that I am in fact understanding properly, and I did not
intend to stir up any resentments. If I have yet to understand, please
feel free to inform me for my understanding.

"Would"? Not "do"?

Why don't
you have another drink, matter of fact have one for me as well,

Actually, I don't drink.

and I
am sure you will feel better in the AM.

Better......than.....?

Wolfgang

Actually I don't drink very much, nor advocate that others do so
either. I hope that you are feeling better never the less, and that
there was no insult intended. TnT
