Absolutely not true. Dogboy, aren't you tired of being wrong all the time?

Well, I could have said something like "Come on, Alexei, it's obvious, pay attention."

"With it" means you understand what is going on with respect to that particular topic.

It probably derives from "get with the program". Ummm, picture an intensive training class. They have a program you have to follow. If you are not succeeding, they tell you to "get with the program". It then devolved into a colloquialism.

Oh. It was my fault. I should have been more attentive.

Aaa, thanks.

Thought so.

No...I...can't....lose....not to Dogboy.....NO!!!!!!!!!!!!

:D

P.S. I wrote "Lyokha" because I don't like the translit style of picking English letters that look like Cyrillic ones, e.g. 4 for Ч, X for X, and so on. If I wanted something that looked like Лёха, I would have just written it in Cyrillic. Otherwise some people might think I was calling him "Lek-sa." :wink:
