    Hi, All!

    Is it polite to describe him as a "blowzy man"?

    Bye, All

    Hi, Alexander! Recently you wrote in a message to All:

    In a word, no.

    Rule of thumb: if you wouldn't say something to his face or write it in a report card to his parents you may need to reword it a bit... but just between you & me & the gatepost, I understand what you are referring to. :-))
