Just ONE irritation... for a WHOLE day? To quote Monty Pythons "Life of Brian",
"You LUCKY, LUCKY..."

Oh, never mind  ;-)


(Mine are the use of the non-words "irregardless" and "nuke-u-ler" by supposedly
educated people such as public officials and broadcasters.)

Have a nice (i.e. pleasant) day. (e.g.  Spend time with good friends, eat tasty
and nourishing food and avoid all contact with chihuahuas.)

Best Regards,
Mike C.
