...to my User Profile page. About time too. Did away with that daft "Your Birthday Is..." thing. Although it was apt, it was also twee - and I dislike twee. It's a stupid number, anyway.

"Judgment" is not incorrect. See HMCS. I used to struggle with that whilst at Russell-Cooke as, unsurprisingly, Word cannot spell.

It had not occurred to me that I could have simply added it to the dictionary.

I think the world's problems could be solved if everyone sat down at a table and takled about things.

I don't know what "takling" is, but maybe you do and it is what you meant. I fear, though, that the average LiveJournaller will not know either.

You pedant, you! ;)

I've corrected my erroneous mistake of 'takling'. I really should use the mystical gift of re-reading my words before posting.

As for 'judgment'... well, the nature of it was slightly tongue-in-cheek. I know it's not incorrect. It is, I believe, more of an Americanism than I usually employ in my writing.

In other news, how's you? Bearing up under the twin strains of impending dissertation and impeding union? ;) We don't speak nearly enough, dude.

Strangely enough, I really like the new look ;p Did you know, I wrote both mine and Matto's profiles xD Furthermore, I love your posts because they make me feel clever and stupid at the same time. For example, I know what 'synecdoche' is but I can never pronounce it :3

You can tell wrote my profile. I'm the kind of man who required a dictionary to read this post of yours.

"Sin-ek-dock-ee" if you were interested. And that's following the Standard British Pronunciation Of Classical Greek Words. Which, as my Greek friends happily inform me, is incorrect.

And no, I didn't realise you'd written Matto's profile. Here was me thinking he had *some* iota of literariness... how cruelly dashed my hopes are! ;)
