Affect (verb) = to influence, have an effect on.
Effect (verb) = to bring about.

Mazzerati's dismissal in the game against Australia has affected Italy's ability to effect a victory.

:p

Yes dear, thank you. I did know that. It was a mistake. I even invented a handy little word to remember:

Neva
n= noun:
e= effect
v= verb:
a= affect

I hope I have satisfactorily assured you of my positive zeal for correct grammar and spelling! (And thus salvaged our friendship, which might have collapsed completely after such a dreadful error.)

Darn it! Australia lost. I had an imaginary £10 on them winning the World Cup. I would have won over a £1000 according to bookie odds. Imaginary money, of course, but still!

Well, I struggle to have an opinion on your imaginary lack of succss in gaining, imaginarily, an imaginary £1000, but it did sux that Italy won from an undeserved penalty in the 93rd minute.

"ETA: So I get home and it's suddenly working again. *shakes head* Shan't complain!"

Does that mean you retract your previous statements/excuses? ;)

Watch your tone, young lady! I am a very busy man! My time is much in demand. Unfortunately, I'll probably lose internet access in a week anyway when I move house.

As for the you-know-what, it really needs Ronka to do her plot. I don't think I can really write it as I'm not involved on that end.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that your internet is cured!

And fair rides at a dance? How cool is that?
