You are the one that told me last month that the saying "the English Language" was an Americanism.

When I informed you that Dr Samuel Johnson wrote "A Dictionary of the English Language" in 1746 and the United states was created in 1776 you soon scuttled off back to your corner.

When you want to try and put someone down at least try and have a higher standard of education that them.

I am flattered you follow my movements so closely. IIRC I was away at the time; sorry I wasn't able to stroke your ego for you by replying promptly.

No doubt that was another of your oh-so-clever 'traps' you put in just to catch me out. Yeah, right. You're just upset because nobody was impressed that you did a lot of fighting when younger - misjudged your audience there, didn't you?. Some of us think that is pathetic: boxing is an alternative to an education.
