“Near miss” always confuses me...as does parking in a driveway and driving on a parkway...or things sent by sea being CARgo, but things sent by truck being a SHIPment...

How about “partial nudity”? If you’re nude, your nude. If you have any clothes on, your not.

That’s sort of like “half dead”.

yeah and what about the “W” ?

ONE has a “W” sound but no “W”
TWO has a “W” but no “W” sound.

and how about “I before E except after C”
It’s not rocket science, and don’t be deceived, but it’s an ancient axiom and what’s weird is Einstein has it wrong twice in his name. Either this axiom works or neither work. I’ll raise a stein to that.

I believe I’ve achieved my purpose.

i’m outta here.
