gerardM a écrit:Top Ten One Liners
1. Escalators don’t break down… they just turn into stairs
2. “I’m sorry” and “I apologize” mean the same thing… except when you’re at a funeral.
3. I intend to live forever… or die trying.
4. We never knew he was a drunk… until he showed up to work sober.
5. A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.
6. A blind man walks into a bar… And a table, and a chair.
7. At what age is it appropriate to tell my dog that he’s adopted?
8. Want to hear a pizza joke…. nah, it’s too cheesy. What about a construction joke? Oh never mind, I’m still working on that one. Did you hear the one about the rope? Skip it. Have you heard the one about the guy in the wheelchair? Never mind, it’s too lame.
9. I used to be in a band, we were called ‘lost dog’. You probably saw our posters.
10. I childproofed the house… but they still get in!
A clear conscience :a knowledge or belief that one has done nothing bad or wrong
To have a clear conscience means "avoir bonne conscience "ou "avoir la conscience tranquille"

Re: Jennifer Saunders Fan Club -2-
Hi Muriel,
"Interested by" is not correct.
I wrote about prepositions a few days ago and I wrote that even though it looked a past participle and a state, the preposition was not always "by" like for a passive form.
Interested IN... interested IN... interested IN...
What is this bloody dictionary that doesn't even provide the most common meaning?
"Break into" by 80% means to enter by force.
I don't understand Muriel, what was like your dog??MurielB a écrit:Gérard it was like the dog we previously had.
![scratch](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_scratch.png)
NO Muriel!By the way i am very interested by the phrasal verb
"Interested by" is not correct.
I wrote about prepositions a few days ago and I wrote that even though it looked a past participle and a state, the preposition was not always "by" like for a passive form.
Interested IN... interested IN... interested IN...
I'm a bit upset... not at you but at the dictionary..."Break into"

Gérard our dog was not scary, he was nice. I had the feeling that if burglers broke into our house he would help them
Ok I will repeat that verb 3 times. TxInterested IN... interested IN... interested IN...

As you know there're oodles of weird websites: good and bad.
Aren't there enough free famous dictionaries? Cambridge, Oxford, Collins, Merriam-Webster... Please, choose a serious one.

Re: Jennifer Saunders Fan Club -2-
Gérard I often use Merriam-Webster which I find very good. This time I wanted to try another one which was not a good idea. Anyway let's return to the matter at hand. I agree that most of the time it is more idiomatic to use "Interested in" but under certain circumstances "interested by" would be correct. What do you think ?
https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/226727/interested-in-or-by-something
You might use 'interested by' to refer to something which had caught your attention

Also read https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/interested-by-in.3195577/
Natives admit they might use "interested by" but foreigners have to insist much - this "by" doesn't look natural at all.

Re: Jennifer Saunders Fan Club -2-
Let me repeat, it's not the only example where the French must not translate using "by", just thinking of passive voice.MurielB a écrit:Gérard tx I agree that « interested by » is like French translated into English

Re: Jennifer Saunders Fan Club -2-
The neighbours thought it was odd, but 93 year old Morton was dating again.
One Monday morning Morton woke up with a funny feeling that something important happened last night.
It was during breakfast that Morton finally remembered what it was.
He had proposed to his date Greta.
But what she answered he just couldn’t seem to remember.
Morton picked up the phone and dialed.
“Hi Greta”, said Morton, “I have a funny question for you, do you remember last night when I proposed?”
“Oh my gosh” gushed Greta, “I’m so glad you called, I knew I said yes to somebody but I just couldn’t recall who it was!”
