<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lrbguy, post: 2892498, member: 88829&quot;]Don&#039;t take my remark seriously.&nbsp; I was speaking &quot;tongue in cheek&quot; (an American idiom for &quot;kidding, joking&quot;).&nbsp; In American English the expression &quot;lump in his throat&quot; is also an idiom, which refers to being nervous - - such as, an unskilled person concerned about making a public speech.&nbsp; In my remark I was saying that the coin observes when he got the lump <i>out</i> of his throat, that is, got the courage to speak well in public.&nbsp; It was all just a bit of &quot;tomfoolery&quot; on my part, but maybe not right for an international forum.&nbsp; If anyone was offended, I apologize.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
