No English dictionary has been able to adequately explain the difference between the two words.****In a recently held linguistic competition held in London, England attended by the best in the world*Samsundar Balgobin,**a Guyanese man from Bachelors Adventure was the clear winner with a standing*ovation lasting over 5 minutes. Here is his answer which made him receive an invitation to dine with Queen afterwards who decided to call him after the contest.*He won a trip to travel the world in style and a case of 25 year old Eldorado rum for his answer.*

His final question was this.... How to explain the difference between*COMPLETE and FINISHED*in a way that is easy to understand.Some people say there is no difference between*COMPLETE and FINISHED*.***Here is his astute answer*.... when you marry the right woman, you are*COMPLETE.***And when you marry the wrong woman, you are*FINISHED.***And when the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are*COMPLETELY FINISHED!**
