 Thanks, although it's still not good enough, or should I say not updated
 enough, to understand a number of jokes. Too bad, but I'm still learning.
You
 people teach me something new every day! :-)
 No matter how bad my English is, it always feels good to hear a person whose
 first language /is/ English, say that it's still better than his or her
 (insert name of ANY non-English language here)... :-)))

Jerry, if we were trying to communicate using my knowledge of your language,
we would be limited to hand signs.

Try THAT over the internet!!

It's only through your "bad" english that we are able to understand each
other.  I have no complaints about your english...
