    May I ask why you use this ever so often, you really need it that bad...

    "The origin of the expression is from a prayer of confession of sinfulness used in the Mass of the Roman Catholic Church known as Confiteor (Latin for "I confess"), of which the first evidence dates from shortly before 1100AD. The phrase "mea culpa" appears in the prayer from the 16th century."

    Mea culpa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    "In the popular vernacular, the expression mea culpa is an admission of having made a mistake by one's own fault (one that could have been avoided if the person had been more diligent). It may be used even in trivial situations: if a sports player, for instance, admits that his team lost a game because he missed an opportunity to score, this may be called a mea culpa, meaning that he admitted his mistake, which he could have avoided (at least in theory), and that resulted in a subsequent evil."

    baltoed No harm no foul, us Baltimorons have to stick together. But I did have to read your post twice or I thought I would break a nail.......LOL....albeit I did use mea culpa mea culpa mea maxima culpa quite often when I was an Altar Boy and mass was still held in Latin. :D
