Oh, sorry; I don't rememeber you mentioning that these text files would be
"those words that you regularly sprinkle in your conversations".  I was 
just providing a few more valid *and* "common" words for the contest.

Frankly, Derek, why don't you just piss off.  You've obviously taken a 
disliking to me and I've just done like-wise.  You want a bad mood?  Well,
you've just put me there.  

I'm PO'd (again) with your reaction.  I gave it too little time but I still
can't believe this shit.  I'm sorry to have inconvenienced you all with my
nonsense.

All hail the almighty Derek!@
