Yes, brainL is single at the moment. He ate his last wife a couple of weeks ago.

The police caught brainL at the airport before he could board the 'plane to India, so you're out of luck. He should be released in about 40 years time, if he behaves. If you can wait that long?
|
Now that is a disappointing news ! and I was expecting brainL to be a cuddly and huggable cannibal.
|
What's nice, looking to the future, is that BrainL likes kids. He couldn't eat a whole one....
|
...with fava beans and a nice chianti...did I ever mention that Thomas Harris based Hannibal Lecter on brainL?
|
Did you know that "Hannibal Lecter" is an anagram of "BrainL Chat n Eel"? Makes you think.

With the a/an thing, I've always gone by the pronunciation of the word, rather than its spelling. For example, "useful" might start with a vowel, but it isn't pronounced "oosful", it's "yoosful", and since the pronunciation is unusual (long "yoo" as opposed to short "oo" or "uh"), you would use "a" instead of "an".
Just IMO. ;) |
Is there some guide which can be followed to determine when to use/avoid "an" w.r.t a word starting with a vowel ?
and now I can't even call brainL for help since his evil brother has put him behind the bars :banghead: |
