Be careful what you ask..........

When a prosecutor asked whether his lawyer's statement that "There is no sex of any kind, in any manner, shape or form with President Clinton" was false, the President infamously responded that "It depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is." When asked about the impression that he gave in the Paula Jones deposition that he was never alone with Monica Lewinski, he replied that, "It depends on how you define 'alone.'"

Apparently he didn't look up the meaning of the word "is" or "alone".

OOF

After I answered your post, I went and looked it up.
(I could not take the suspense.)

I see my answer wasn't too far off (according to dictionary.com).

Actually, I can't tell you what the difference is without looking up other words...
