Until and till are both correct. They are what is known as "synonyms."

Come on over here and give me a little sugar and I might be inclined to agree with you.

Mother told me, yes, she told me I'd meet girls like you.
She also told me, "Stay away, you'll never know what you'll catch."
Just the other day I heard a soldier falling off some Indonesian junk that's going round.

Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird.
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.

Father says, "Your mother's right, she's really up on things."
"Before we married, Mommy served in the WACS in the Philippines."
Now, I had heard the WACS recruited old maids for the war.
But mommy isn't one of those, I've known her all these years.

Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird.
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.

Whatever happened to all this season's losers of the year?
Ev'ry time I got to thinking, where'd they disappear?
When I woke up, Mom and Dad are rolling on the couch.
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out.

Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird.
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.

Away.
Away.

Repeat Chorus 7X

Ok, you just made the English Major/Professor in me cringe.

Is that really your analysis? It can't be a Christ symbol because it is Christ? What do you think a symbol is? It is meant to represent, or (get this) symbolize the thing in question, or in this case the general concept of one dying and being reborn to save others.

So Aslan dies and is reborn in Narnia (sorry for the lack of spoilers kids - I'm sure I've ruined it for you) and Neo "dies" and returns to save people. Heck people argue ET is a Christ figure, because he "dies" and comes back. Personally I think that is a bit much but that is neither here nor there. You know, Neo is really more of a Moses. He doesn't really die for our sins. He struggles to accept his abilities in order to free his people. Aslan does though, he is specifically willing to sacrifice himself to make up for the sins of one of the humans. And he is resurrected because of the purity of his act of self sacrifice.

And now you have made me a Christ timmy, and I think that sucks.

All I need clarification on is whether or not "well alrighty then" has been approved by the Timmy patrol. Thanks in advance.

I find it appalling that you are disclaiming membership in the Timmy Club.

Yes. Of course. What was I thinking? Cheap Trick is the ultimate source of spelling, grammar and all that is right.

I'm too tired to read the edit, but I've never noticed the different usage. Perhaps it depends on the area. If my parents said anything freaky, like that I would correct them. They still can't pronounce lieutenant or aluminum correctly, though, so what the hell do I know? I is going home now to take a nap.

take a look at my moniker, then get back to me. I am not a capitalization Timmy. I am a spelling, usage and grammar Timmy. I assume that is explained in dtb's mysterious packet.
