As to bragging: I find it very endearing that the English don't. <br />In private life (I hope) I only brag about my work out at the gym and jogging (because so many people behave as if my slim figure comes out of the blue), but never about things I own. <br />In the job I learned the hard way: my ideas were nicked by men, they bragged and got promoted - till I learned to open my mouth too.

St. Paul's reflected in an infinite one-sided surface --chrome combination of a Mobius Strip and Klein Bottle-- but mostly because it includes the photographer.

So I just naturally take charge of teaching everyone involved to do it my way.
