Jabber's English Note---010

Ji-Ang lent 100 dollars to Egg. After some days, Ji-Ang wanted to collect money from Egg. The first time Ji-Ang talked Egg, Egg promised to bring the money next day. On the second day, Ji-Ang mentioned the matter again, and Egg sincerely told Ji-Ang that his bank did not open.
In any case, Egg can find some excuses to fool Ji-Ang. For instance, he changed the jacket and forgot to bring his wallet. In such a situation, we may rash to a conclusion-----Egg is very elusive.

If a person is elusive, it is very difficult for us to catch him/her.

Recently, our business partner is supposed to diliver 15 StoredProcedures to us. It took us a whole week to get what they promised. When I was extremely frustrated, I suddenly got the word "elusive" and I told my CTO: " Those guys are really elusive". Probably because my words touched him, he responed: "How did you get this word? "

Are you elusive among your friends?

---I hope Ji-Ang and Egg are not offended by the example I created.
