Eric,

Regarding standing by: and I won't repeat it for the third time

Lesson #1: Surely you meant to say either that you won't write it for the third time or that you won't repeat it for the second time. If you don't understand that both ways of saying that amount to the same number of stand-bys, be sure that your hands are free so you can count on your fingers. It's easier that way.

Lesson #2: I look forward to the day that you don't repeat it the first time. (But three times is indeed better than four.)
