Sorry...you. Had forgotten you didn't have many brain cells left and shouldn't overuse them.
Leave one neurone to remember you have to make an important phone call asap.

Thanks a lot, Gemma, for your grammar explanation. It's clear now, although my hunger is still the same. By the way (or incidentally), I don't catch what you say about being provoking...

I don't think it is a lack of vitamin B. More a vestige of his former self. Has he never told you who he was in his past life?

No, pero puedo adivinar. Farandulaba en un sideshow de circo de mala reputación imagino. ¿Estoy en los cierto? Geeks, mujeres barbudos, traga espadas, etc

Quisiera saber si existía esta practica en España tambien.¿ Hay una palabra para geek en español ?
Yo siempre pensaba que un geek era un chavo que nunca salía del sótano de la casa de sus papás y siempre estaba metido en sus computadoras/programación/internet etc.

That's the new definition. It's similar to a nerd, but stranger. The original
geek was in the circus side show. The geek's specialty was biting heads off live chickens. The geek's associates were sword swallowers, glass eaters as well natural phenonomenonals like pinheads and hermaphrodites. There's a toned-down freak show currently in operation in Coney Island, but its appeal is limited. Apparently American Idol, Britney, and Amy are too much competition.http://www.coneyisland.com/sideshow.shtml

David, both neuron and neurone are correct spellings.
