It's an ephemerous feeling. Why call the whole thing off? What thing?

Glad to hear, BD, that your foul mood is merely ephemeral - let impermanence be the fate of all foul moods ! If it's now improved to the point where you no longer find levity inappropriate, read the song lyrics to which I posted a link and consider your «ejus» and Apo's «eius» in that light....

Strange, BD, it opens for me, and without my even whispering «Sesame» ! But here's the URL : «http://www.fredastaire.net/music/lyrics ... ingoff.htm» - see if you can get it to work !...

Sometimes humor just doesn't translate. I was able to open the link, and reproduce for you the relevant lyric:Your levity won't open. And I've tried thrice.
