Although I am Italian, it sucks. My father, a full-blooded Sicilian, did not teach his children Italian, much to my detriment and chagrin.
I think FZ will forgive my jibe, as the lose/loose interchanging has to be called out by me. It's the one grammatical faux pas I cannot overlook.
As I said, I took my alias because of it.
Que sera, sera!
