My, you're a sparky little lady! Here's to ya (I had a high school teacher who began his lecture by saying, "The last thing I want to hear from any of you, after I spend this hour getting your undivided attention and directing you to learn to learn, is for one of you smart alecks to ask if I grade on the curve, of all things"!) He talked on and on to a completely quiet and attentive audience. At the end of his monologue, he asked, "Now, I'm very open to discussion. Do any of you have any questions"? Up rose the hand of one delightful little gal. "Yes,!" he responded eagerly, "what is it"? "Do you grade on the curve, sir"? the student asked.

rohaan: I know this. Come out, come out, wherever you are.... (just none of the rough stuff unless it's MY idea)
Now I'm a little muddled, boss. I don't quite get the meaning. I always thought it was kinda neat to have a little mystery there, of course all the silhouettes (if that's what you mean) look exactly alike. I "see" a personality in what is being said--and you look like a comfortable old shoe, to me . (That would be a fine thing laddie-so smile!) By the way, you made me laugh, that's a fine thing, too.
