    Aw, don't worry about being 13, it's a good age, enjoy it. The case with my daughter is " The older she gets the smarter her parents get". And, no, we don't treat her like she's still 13. Not a Cisco certified engineer (working for Cisco) and a customer service manager. W'er proud of her and the main thing is to let her know it.

    little155, you sound like a good parent.

    Hey, maybe you could be my parent and teach me how to use the darned VPN Client! :)

    @Lethal_B, what is VPN Client? I hope your're not asking a computer question. I'm computer challenged. I have to ask my daughter if I have a problem and of course I ask here on afterdawn.

    yeah VPN is a 'tunnel', we use them for work so i install a VPN client on any machine wherever i am, i'm a bit of a gypsy, always on the move, can connect to work systems from anywhere. Cool in a sad geeky kind of way.

    it's Friday, 'sposed to be 70+degrees Fahrenheit today and i'm sat indoors in front of computers just to earn money. Bitch, bitch, bitch :)

    I thought she was the other one, the Roseanne look-alike. ;) That's why I said, "What a mug".

    If so, I suspect he scores okay in foreign languages. ;) Though I'd take points off for grammar and punctuation.

    @brobear...yes, if our boy is French, he does indeed have a gift for languages; not to mention, he seems like a really nice kid. I was born in Rhode Island but I'm from a French family and educated in French schools until high-school but one gets terribly rusty after 40 years LOL! If immersed in the language, it starts to come back quickly after a couple of days. I should brush up on the grammar and start keeping a journal or something of the sort. While I no longer speak with an accent, I cannot spell in English ... just never got the hang of it. French is similar to Latin in the sense that spelling is easy once you know the phonetics and also in the sense that it's very grammar heavy. I say I no longer have an accent but you should hear me (sho-d'ear me) after a few drinks LOL! I tried joining a French speaking social group here in Philly but the French is so seriously mispronounced that, half the time, I have no idea what they're saying. I remember all these nifty French jokes and have no one to tell them to LOL!

    the quebec french is habitaunt french which is different from the parisian french. when the canadian vandoo regiment were in france during ww2, the only area that understood their version of french was in the normandy area.

    Unfortunately my linguistic skills are very limited and mostly involve the written language. I have some basic Spanish skills, but I've not been in a Spanish speaking environment to truly learn the oral language. In other words, I've not developed an "ear" for the language. ¿Me da dos cerveza por favor? LOL If I'm lucky, I might get a couple of beers someday. ;) I'm sometimes surprised by the similarities in French and Spanish. Sometimes I'll see a statement such as yours and understand the meaning (or most of it). If I had heard someone say those words, I'd probably have missed the meaning. To make things even more difficult, I've not practiced using Spanish since college (a number of years ago), and there are few Spanish speaking people in this area and none I know personally; small town and I'm not involved in a public business.

    Sounds similar to the Yanks being in the UK.

    True, Norteamericanos, both English speaking Canadian and US, sound different from the English in the UK. Plus, if not being careful, they may look the wrong way and step onto a UK street and be flattened by a lorry.
