Just try to program in Delphi XE8 for a few hours. You'll go running and screaming back to VS2015 before you're even able to get your project to compile.

You should try searches on the etymology of words: etymology holiday[^]

Some, but not all. July 4th is a holiday for just about everyone in the States, but not a holy day (unless worshipping wieners and fireworks counts). Christmas - on the other hand - is considered pretty holy.

You're very welcome. Mr. is fine - Sir is usually reserved for very formal occasions (or when someone has been knighted).
Or as the old saying goes, "Call me whatever you want, just don't call me late for dinner."

Why my soapbox message is deleted "immediately"? It was only a link to deep purple....
Not a big issue, simply not clear.

Sorry, I don't have any idea. I'd think links to Deep Purple would go over well here.

Possibly got caught by the spam filter and some eager beaver kicked it into touch.
Re your question about titles, a Swiss friend explained it to me many years ago:
"My name is Johann Schmidt, my friends call me Johann, you may call me Herr Schmidt."

A coworker sent me this[^] about 20 minutes ago. So far I'm at 28/40 (14 title/artist pairs). A lot of them are rather obvious, but I'm stuck on a few.
EDIT: I'm up to 17 (34/40) now.

I'm stuck at 12.
I'd rather be phishing!

I'm stuck at zero.
The only album covers I would recognize are Abbey Road, the White Album, and Dark Side of the Moon.
EDIT: Ohhh wait... I get it... 10/40 so far
EDIT: Ok, stuck at 18/40

Got bored after ten seconds and decided to listen to actual music.

How does working on those "brainteasers" prevent you from listening to actual music at the same time?

26/40 so far
The "yellow and the green tree" was a PITA - I went through half a dozen cover artists before I got the original!
(Make that 28 - don't you feel a fool when the penny drops on some of them?)
Nope: I surrender at 32/40!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
