I wrote the above because I suspect you are an American. If you are not, erm . Well, anyway welcome from an uptight Brit.

Elementary my dear Watson. Firstly, you spelt favourite without the u. Secondly, the frisbee thing. Your style of writing is quite candid, that is VERY American. I'm in a very good mood with Americans at the moment . I saw Michael Johnson in a shopping centre ( a mall) and when I recognized him he said Hi! Well small things amuse....
There is a veritable army of Americans on this site, it may come down to a second Boston Tea Party!

Frisbee isn't that popular in England? I don't know why that surprises me.

Too much familiarity. We are all hotbeds of repressed emotion. Mr Spock is really English. Why do you think we made all those Hammer Horror films, Christopher Lee plunging his fangs into those virginal necks, gasps of pleasure etc. all very Freudian. Mind you it doesn't explain why we are all so intense about gardening.
