    When talking about Borderers to other people, I'll usually phrase it as "I have this friend who..." lol

    I especially have to do that: (I have this friend <LOL>). I mean, Verna has no objections to my infatuation with Eagles or even the Wilsons, but I sort of have to be careful about mentioning any of you guys to her <LOL>. Not really. She knows that 99% of Eagles fans are Women....the few Guys who will admit it openly are usually fixated on Joe Walsh. Stands to reason that I'd be on an Eagles board mostly consisting of the stronger sex.

    And that's okay. I have nothing to fear but Fear itself...so far.

    Ditto! Sometimes, to change it up a bit (read: to hide my "Eagles-stalking" from the family), I also say, "I know someone who..."

    Right. It is set in Oklahoma. "Grace" is a real "character". I've only watched it a couple of times. She is on the Police Force but is somewhat of a delinquent herself. She has this angel named "Earl" who is trying to get her to help with someone....but it really isn't about Angels <LOL>

    I tend to say 'A friend of mine in the States......' or 'A Friend....in the UK'. As many people here have friends in the USA and in the UK it just rolls off. The fun starts when I say 'A friend of mine in "South Africa" or "Australia" or "Canada"' Then the eyes start to open just a little wider.....
