gecko	BS: Irritatin' phrases.... (117* d)	RE: BS: Irritatin' phrases....	18 Nov 05
As I see it, the only good thing about 'catchphrases' is that they go out of fashion eventually - though not soon enough for me. Four that currently drive me to distraction are: whatever level playing field it's all good - Dave's wife beat me to that one, and not a problem. Don Watson's recent book 'That Death of the English Language' should be mandatory reading for all politicians and bureaucrats, to mention just two groups who regularly indulge themselves with mis-use of our beautiful language.
