Possibly, Plausibly, Probably, Predictably and Practically
You know what it is like to be challenged by an idea. Well, this morning, I had to deal with the uncertainty of many ideas. It is more than obvious that facts come in different shadings.

"John! What's happening to the US economy?" asked Matthew."Why do you ask?" replied John, his head still fixed towards the TV in the corner. He was more interested in the basketball game.

Is Stupid a Word that Should Not be Used?
Logically, for me at least, the words smart and stupid are closely connected. What I have come to realize is how inexact the use of such words can be. I have a friend who advises me never to use the word stupid with reference to a person. The same friend constantly reminds me that whatever I say in any event is only my opinion.
