You could buy me a beer. That has always been the best solution to solve problems between two persons (Do we have a problem?).

Now that deserves an explanation. How do females solve such a problem?

Since it rarely happens.... (I'm such an easy-going type of person with no temper)....I would probably have them over for coffee and some type of delicious dessert or take the kids to the park and talk there. If there ever is an argument between the partners it's usually gone as fast as it comes....and we all have a good laugh.

Personally, I think it gets worse the further along the alphabet it goes, but glad it says 'zed', rather than 'zee'.

I was taught to use "zed" rather than "zee", although I attended an American missionary school. And then people (mainly Canadians) started telling me "zed" was wrong.

Perhaps they had rejected the authority of their teachers?

You're not suggesting ..... anarchy??

Why would the callow inexperienced young be into anarchy??

I believe my kids are being taught "Zed" ... but then again, the teachers think they're teaching the Queen's English ...

I couldn't possibly comment...

My wife's sister's children are taught 'zed', I believe, and they generally talk a very nasal American-sounding form of English. I don't know if that makes sense to anyone else, but I hear it lots of younger Ontarians. Bu then, it's their universe...

People in Ontario sound nasal in comparison to Albertans .... over here it's very "aboot", "no doot", etc.

ZED ZEE what the hell and whats the difference - 'they' were certainly the last word in T!@S and either on top or not you would still suffocate - but a nice way to go though.
