Yes, I'm having my coffee right now. Hmmmm, it's good/wonderful. I agree about foreign languages. My second language is French, and it's great fun for me to read in it.

I like to read a lot of French, but especially thrillers, police novels, sometimes better books.
Yes, words, for sure, linuxmint7

Let's see: leushino is obviously not my name but rather a place in Russia. I'm Orthodox and years ago I read a book about the monastery in Leushino and it captured my imagination. My father, by the way, was born in Russia "before" the revolution (another long story) but the family fled to Canada where I was born. Today I live in the US and our son is a distinguished software engineer with Microsoft Corporation. He is one of the leaders in the Xbox division and doing extremely well. We're very proud. I've used Opera for years (along with Netscape back in the day). That's about it for me.
BTW... lem729 I want to commend you for your hard (and patient) work with those asking questions and presenting problems. I'm sure the Opera team appreciate your efforts. -

"Originally born" sounds interesting - implementing there's possible another birth, not so original;)

Hello, pal. Welcome to the forums!
We have a lounge here, too, as you can see...
And I called you to mention that you can edit your posts here - during the first 30 minutes: click on the cog-wheel beneath your avatar - and you'll see the option

Ruario, to better explain this langage nuisance, I've decided to add something here.
As a Russian native and a rather successful Englisg student and angloman, I basically speak two languages: Russian and
(British)English.
I can understand American English, to some extent Aussie English, to a better extent Scottish English (to an extent Lowland Scots too), to a significantly lesser extent Pakistani English. But I do not speak nor going to understand either Inglish or english(including variations).
I'm not even gonna read those - the only exclusion to that is when a speaker/poster is not at all an English speaker and only sort of forced to interact in the language.
Sometimes I can consider offering some advice or assistance to such non-native speakers, but it may only happen if the circumstances allow.

My last name is Laing, laingman is what my best friend in the USAF called me. I first got hooked on opera quite by mistake when I had opera mini on my old palm treo and saw something about opera desktop and decided to download it. At the time I was using a 3G connection card which was pretty slow by today's standards, so when I saw the pop up progress bar that let me see what it was doing, I was totally hooked and have never been interested in any other browser, including new opera.
By the way, beside opera my other passion is the now defunct palm webos, the greatest mobile operating system ever made. I still use a palm pre2 smartphone, so with that and old opera I now use two unsupported products as my daily drivers.
My native tongue is Jamaican patois and I find English to be quite dull. Used to live in NY, too cold, now living in Miami

@joshl I am British. It is my first language. However, your English is incomprehensible to me in at least half your posts. Perhaps you are not as successful as you think you are?
