I had this wicked thought pop into my head... And it amused me, so I thought I would share.. Please, if anyone is at all offended or feels angry I will remove it.. Especially Randy D, who I know has seemed quite cross on a previous occasion where I mentioned his name in a post. But I wondered, just what the great and wonderful Randy D, (respected and admired by myself and others) would make of my assignment! If he didn't die of boredom through reading it, I am sure he would make mincemeat out of the grammar! He'd have the time of his life correcting all those grammatical errors! And I might even gain a few points when it gets handed in to my tutor :P Mind you, I'd need to re-draft it to get rid of all those crossings out and red-ink marks :P less

I am waiting until it plays again to verify which one it is. I went online to research it, but found nothing definitive. ~
