Thanks TheB. I LOVE these linguistic idiosyncrasies.

As I read through them, I could see how they conflicted yet depending on circumstances and one's philosophy, they would each be applicable based on that person's belief. It is kind of funny when you get both, the contradicting advice for the same event, maddening too at times. Having gotten some of those comments / advice for the same events in the past (and I'm sure they will continue in the future), it will be curious to sort out what phrase is appropriate for each of us given the circumstances. In the meantime, each to their own.

P.S. I just have to save these; they really are great.
