It's more of an exaggeration to my natural lisp.Well, we'll see what happens. I think it's more of a psychological effect -- I don't think I'm actually (significantly) slurring my words. God I hope not. If so, what would that indicate? A stroke? And if so, what would be my prognosis? Wouldn't I know if I'd had one? Is a stroke likely when I'm in relatively good shape, run regularly, etc.? Of course mixing uppers and downers is never a good idea ...
[I think at this point I'm keeping the thread going to see how creative we can get with our delimiters.]
