Sorry to break in, but Mr. Sixth, are you still unable to change your profile?
If so, perhaps I can help. Simply give me your password, and I will attempt to change it for you.

I'm only here to help.

Thanks for the offer! Kind of you. We'd tried that already but succeeded not. I figure if I can't bribe the computer with cake then no one can.

That said, huzzah! The clever people who look after these forums have dug in, whacked the code gremlins over the head and everything seems ticketyboo now! It works!

Curses! Foiled again.

pssst! Over here! I checked your profile. You spell fantasizing with a 'z' in there somewhere, not two esses. Back to the drawing boards!

Sixth, what is skivering?

Picky picky...

I spelt fantasizing with two esses and not a z. I prefer the z, so i changed it. I think either might be correct, one perhaps older English than American. At least, Word when set to English (real) doesn't complain and the dictionary seems to suggest either.

Skive - to slack off, to avoid doing any work, to play truant.

Thank you for explaining, my little truant. I really meant no harm about the z vs s. Just pointed it out in case it was in error.

 

[Sixth]

I live to learn. Really. I think I feed off information. Spelling is a bane. Feel free to point out errors (along with the corrections).

I promose, whatever happens, I'll not take control of your computer, morph it into a monster and use the keyboard to whack you on the side of the head if you do. I can be sure of that.

Why am I suddenly very nervous?

Hi, Sixth. We are almost the same age; I am 13 days older than you.
Anyway, welcome.

You've nothing to be nervous of.

If you catch your keyboard looking at you - just ignore it.

This is all a remarkable coincidence. However, check this out: my Greek art professor prophesied that I would receive an answer (to an ever-nagging question) on the SIXTH day of the SIXTH month of 2006. This is amazing.

Amazingly, I predict that I’ll keep on asking nagging questions until at least 2006!

Olivianna, that is a beautiful and unusual avatar.

RR,
Thank you. It is a 17th century manuscript painting from Safavid Iran. Persian painting is just spectacular.

And it has been predicted that you will keep on asking nagging questions until at least 2006.
