That would be my American schooling failing me while trying to make a quick joke. I should have said, "Nile," in response to RG's question of if she's using Siri.

That was the worst post ANYONE has made on this board. <shudder>

 

[Krakosky]

I don't get that one either.

Getting back on track...
