  ... and only because colloquial English can be difficult for a non-native speaker, might I suggest a more proper phrase is "avoid like the plague "?

  Again, no insult intended. I can't speak a word of French or German.

    In my language, 'lort' means 's h i t' (sorry, I don't know if they have a four letter word filter here :-) )

      That way folks who like the films end up paying the price of your "pest" avoidance over and over again. ;^)

          ***Drink a glass of champagne & take it easy & relax..

          ...and put on whatever you enjoy... even if it is the LOTR!

          If we all always agreed on everything, what would happen to a good argument?

          It is, like a good enema, important every once in a while.

            From my background, in the end I always will tend to harmony...In the end....
            Let´s drink! In one hour and a half from now on, the festivities will be starting .
            I beg the Lord for a good start tonight, and a good continuation for tomorrow as we will have our tradionnal meal in my mother in law house at 12h with the rest of the family....
            And then with my friend from Munich we will do a visit at the " Kloster Erbach " ( where the " name of the Rose " has been partly filmed ) for a good walk....
            So Victor have the very best start possible.
            And don´t drink too much as you may remember than in May you will need ALL of your liver....

            Point well taken.

            Ouch! Point not so well taken. Are you suggesting that one should keeps one's friends close and one's enemas closer? ;^)

            Cheers,
