Give it up for Azaelia!

I'm not sure if underwhelmed is in current English usage, :nerd: but the root word "whelm" actually goes back to the Anglo Saxon period in which it would be, just "whelmed."

I'll get more information for you, BRB.

I think you sig is very funny and appropriate.


I may be being picky but refering to azaelia as Az can be confusing for some of us older members of the board as we have refered to Azriel as Az for a long time.

first, my apologies to Azriel. From now on I will refer to Azaelia as Zael.

Second, underwhelmed IS a word that has at least some history. I haven't looked in the OED yet, but an older dictionary here at the library listed the word. It said it was used informally, but I suspect it has more history than that.

Thirdly, thanks for all the compliments for my new wonderful avatar...and thanks Zael! :D

" I know you can be overwhelmed, and you can be underwhelmed. But can you ever just be...whelmed?"

"I think you can in Europe..."


:rolling: :rolling: I need to watch that movie now (10 Thing I Hate About You) :lol:

And about azaelia...why cant we just call her Amy? or Ame? [/quote]
Amy it is.

And if you would like, you can call me TCW, or by my full name, Tad Charles Wesley. Mr Wesley will do. ;)
