Welcome to the 'Downs, Apple juice! Enjoy being dead. It's been much fun for the rest of us.

Saphy, I agree with you. There are quite a few Americans who have an excellent command of this intricate tangled web of a lanugage called English.

If you're referring to the English, don't worry, you'll catch on quickly. And if you're referring to Boromir and Gil-Galad.... well, oftentimes we don't really understand them either.

Well, as for myself, I don't know half of the posters half as well as I should like;
and I like less than half of them half as well as they deserve.

Actually, it's a good idea being here, if only to practice English, since I
believe Bulgaria has applied to enter the EU, and English seems to be
increasingly the common language of the modern business world.

Excuse me? Not all Americans have a poor command of the English language, thank you.
They don't? I mean...oh shucks. I'm just kidding guys. (Once again I would stick a smiley in here except I'm boycotting them.)

Oh, and...Hi Apple Juice. A sincere Good Luck on understanding these combinations of letters we call English.
