there's also the use of 'alright' as a query at the end of a sentence, as in 'I'm gonna go do this now, alright?' In that case, a contraction of 'is that all right?'.

In any case, I'm with you on this one, alright is an entirely acceptable word to use.

Wah.

You're forgiven for making me wait... ;-)

Your use of alright is totally alright IMO.

You do a good job of avoiding "try and," also. That's *my* pet peeve. (People use "try and" when they mean "try to.")

Even better: your story is great! :-)

Alrighty, then....

Grammar! Who cares the story's great.

And alright has been around a long time. In my Websters Collegiate Dictionary, published in 1940 and copyright 1936, alright is listed as a commonly used form, but not recognized as proper by authorities. It is, without question, a word.

English language is evolving like thoughts, images, perception and understanding etc just to name a few. Chill brah.... not word yeah Aussie Aussie oi oi oi
