I wear glasses, so you can't blame me for bad eyesight. Of course, there should be a space.

Actually, I've recently actually decided that I actually don't like saying "actually" as much as I actually do, at present, actually.

You are right about the first one. The latter, I think it's off a bit from what I intended to say. It sounds to me too much like overcoming a habit. What I intended to say was that even after I deleted the Win95 from my box, I occasionally still encountered them and had to deal with their 'cimoj' ie: bugs.

So your old avatar is gone. I miss Tucan [sp?]! :wink:

Tucan? You mean the Tuxen? I never had a Tucan as avatar.

Probably. But Tuxen sounds like a plural form of Tux.
One Emacs, many Emacsen, or one VAX, many VAXen.
:roll: Anyway, I liked the cute penguin in your avatar.

Actually, the word "actually" appeared only 4 times in this thread, your reply not counted.

I think, you know, I'll change what I, you know, slot in between, you know, other words, to something, you know, a bit less repetitive, you know. OK?

(I apologise for my seriously unprofessional derailment of this thread. I promise I won't do it again, until next time.)

I never had a Tucan as avatar, only a Tux... but you gave me an idea. :wink:

Edit: however, these are 2 different Tuxen.
