Which is correct? Process's or process' ( to show a possessive form) Thanks in advance! bj.

Northern California. AE, Español. Sep 23, 2007. #3. This link suggests that "Poppens" is the name of the girl in the song. I looked at the lyrics of the song, and did not quite seem right.

Es un niño de 5 años, quien ya está botando los dientes de leche y le están saliendo los dientes de adulto.

Also called a " tantalus," a spirit case holds crystal decanters of spirits (whiskey, brandy, etc.) so that they are visible and yet inaccessible to the servants when the bar holding the stoppers is locked down.
