MANEMAN Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 No. Dont go worrying about it Doug. - The world hasn't ended !Just try gently to remove your head from the leg of your pyjamas and you'll find things much the same as the way they were before you got into bed.

D4\/!d Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Nicked from a google search. The antepenultimatewordOf this limerick isn't absurd,Or even befriend(Though that's nearer the end):It's just it's—counting back, it's the third.My wife wears an "X" on her sweaterAnd if I didn't know any better,I'd fear she's devisingSome strange advertisingWith that antepenultimate letter.Penultimate, while looking as if it might mean "the best," actually means "the next-to-the-last in a series." Antepenultimate means "the next-to-the-next-to-the-last in a series." "Y" is the penultimate letter of the alphabet and "X" is the antepenultimate.That'll be all. Thank you Doug ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
