Complete or Finished
!!!!!
No dictionary has ever been able to define the difference between "Complete" and "Finished".
However, during a recent linguistic conference, held in London, England,
Samsundar Balgobin, a Guyanese linguistic expert, was asked to make that very distinction.
The question by a colleague in the erudite audience was this: Please explain the difference in a way that is easy to understand.

Mr. Balgobin's response: "When you marry the right woman, you are ‘Complete’. If you marry the wrong woman, you are ‘Finished’.
And, if the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are ‘Completely Finished’.”
His answer received a five minute standing ovation.!!!!
