Yes, and you know what? I have never heard real Christmas bells. Only on the radio and TV. I have never even seen real Christmas bells. It must be something American.

May this be a historical document that marks the point between me having the idea of using my own vocals on my recordings and the moment where I realise that I'm really not cut out for singing.

I don't know if he's that poor. That is, if that door is in fact connected to the rest of a building. Of course, if that door is all he owns then perhaps he might indeed be poor. But I doubt he'd be chatting here if he really was so badly financed.

Worse than that dear friend. I have a wife and 3 daughters, 1 son, 2 grandkids, and 3 cats. Thank God at least the oldest 2 have moved out.

What?! Three cats?? It's a miracle you're still posting here. How come you still have all your fingers? Or does someone else type for you?

If you have a wife and 3 daughters, 1 son, 2 grandkids, and 3 cats you can not afford a pen.

We prefer British spelling but consistent use of American spelling is acceptable.

Generally, abbreviations should be followed by a full stop (Doc., No., para., ed.) unless the abbreviation includes the last letter of the word (paras, eds, Mr). Where a shortened form is an acronym in capital letters, no full stops are required (UN, WHO, EEC, ECHR).

I thank thee for thine lesson in English writing.

As the great Robin Williams said in the movie Good Morning, Vietnam:
Seeing as how the VP is such a VIP, shouldn't we keep the PC on the QT? 'Cause if it leaks to the VC he could end up MIA, and then we'd all be put on KP.

Also, the development of the heritability of the fief by the vassal's heirs was accompanied by the development of its alienability by the vassal. Such alienation sometimes took the form of subinfeudation, that is, the enfeoffment of a subvassal.
