It always amazes me that you have such an extraordinary command of English, as you are not a native speaker. In fact, I cannot think of a single native speaker that I know who has a better command of the language than you do. At the same time, you express yourself in a way that people of our generation used to call “colorful.” Very candid, and no word is beyond being called into usage.
