Shott or Not?A duel was fought between Alexander Shott and John Nott. Nott was shot and Shott was not. In this case it is better to be Shott than Nott. Some said that Nott was not shot. But Shott says that he shot Nott. It may be that the shot Shott shot, shot Nott, or it may be possible that the shot Shott shot, shot Shott himself. We think, however, that the shot Shott shot, shot not Shott, but Nott. Anyway it is hard to tell which was shot and which was not.

Americanisms Which Seem Illogical to We BritishThat will learn you ... - Don't they teach pupils anything in American schools?
A Regular Cappuccino. - I would not want an irregular coffee.
Alternate Thanksgiving Turkeys. - Do they osscilate? Or is it reserve, or an alternative?
Deplane man. - Ambiguous. Is this an American from the south of the country pointing out an aeroplane? Or a male getting off a plane?
Bi-weekly magazine. - Is this an American phrase for the opposite of a free magazine? Or could it indicate a new periodical genre? I note they are always published every fortnight, that could be a clue!

Good morning everyboomie.
Hey hey hey it's Friday.
Monday AND Friday for me.
The week was a blur.
Like vapors in a cloud, so are the days of our lives.

Maybe it means hot on the top, and wet on the bottom.
Have a happy day everyone.
