Gentlemen, an analysis of this sentence from the previous post suggests to me that the Queens English is indeed in dire peril. Or that the poster is related to the cast of Monty Python.

I havent felt this exited since the day my mother-in-law said she would never speak to me again.

I have no real problem with un-contracted have not, nor have I a serious issue in ending a sentence with the word "again"; however the word exited is contextually wrong.

I have not felt like this since my mother-in-law exited.
Or my mother in law exited and spoke what she said were her final words ever to be directed to my attention.

Or did you mean excited my dear man.

That would thus imply a degree of elation.

Really dude, congrats on both finding this software and severing ties with you mother-in-law.

I one the other hand do anything the mother and father in law wish, and more. The have the mineral rights 60 feet from a 'marginally viable diamond deposit'. The report from the analysis of the drill hole says that if a 20 percent increase in the price of diamonds occurs that the mine is viable. And, they need to do it open pit. And there is more of the same under the father in laws soil. So having in-laws sitting on a diamond mine cannot be a bad thing right?

So I have a gem and potential gems.
