Thank you for correcting my misspelling . Unlike some, I don't mind at all.

No, " me " is NOT acceptable , when saying so and so and ...! The easy wasy to know when to use me and I, is to say the sentence both ways, whilst omitting the others.

Frankly, I usually don't correct other posters' replies grammatically ; however , due to the content of all of his, I made an exception. LOL

To: FreedomFriend, All
Please forgive me if I was in any way unkind in my communications. FreedomFriend, you are correct that my response to the e-mail petition appears to be mockery. Although, I believe it is flawed, my attitude was less than Christlike. In a couple of responses with you, I showed impatience and an angry demeanor. I am sorry.

i know the usage of me and i in most cases. for example, were you to say "my husband and i are going shopping" if you say it without "my husband and" then i would be proper. if i were to say "my sister is going shopping with my husband and me" and you say it without "my husband and" then me is proper.

that is why i am not sure on ff's usage in that particular instance. i still maintain that "younger than me" is proper and acceptable there.
