                    Oh that is gold. πŸ˜„

                    Reminds me of that gesundheit joke.

                    Another tangent flashback: I wish I could recall right now a misheard lyrics bit of my friend but I can't. That one sent me weezin' for minutes. I was blue in the face. It'll come to me later. Probably when I try to sleep.

                                          French. I live in Quebec and speak mostly French during the workday.
