I usually prefer throwing empty wine bottles, Frank. Is that OK with you, too??
Only kidding!!
Just wanted to say that I enjoyed reading this thread very much and had a really good laugh! Good night, everyone!!

Hi
It exists but it is not used anymore (not common usage).
After once, twice you say three times, four times...etc |

As for the relative thing, it might show up in a chart, but in spoken English we would say "a cousin three times removed".
Frank, it is used, but very rarely.

Uh, chart, yanogator. So it would be used by someone giving a quite formal business presentation and people wouldn �t be raising their eyebrows?
Thanks everyone!
