Lottery Vendor of Inability

The correct english would be 'lottery vendor with disability' or 'lottery vendor with handicap'.

If you wanted to use an adjective, you could write 'handicapped lottery vendor' or 'disabled lottery vendor'.

"Vendor of Inability" implies that the person is 'selling inability' or that the person is a god or other fingure representing inability. Inablility, while technically correct, is not used to describe people with missing limbs or other physical or mental attributes. Inability refers to a persons inability to perform a task. Disability or handicap refers to the reason they cannot perform a task.

Handicap is also used as a term in betting. We handicap horses and people by measuring their inability and ability to win a race. In a more negative sense it also means harming someone to cause his or her inability to perform a task.

www.dictionary.com defines these words.

I had to restore the balance. The American most of the rest of the world now sees on a regular basis on the news is GWB, who as President represents the best and brightest of 250 million Americans. :eek:

Lotus in the Wat. Lotus is the holy flower in Buddhism.

I don't know the flower's name. I think it is the noble flower in Thailand.

It is not Angkor Wat, but Wat Phra Kaew in Bangkok, Thailand.

I take it that Wat means temple/home of a god/place of worship and Angkor or Phra Kaew identifies which one.

Do I see what I think I see? :blush:
