I understand how the Rockies fans feel. It is a horrible thing to have your team loose the World Series

We were talking about cars having trouble driving in the Denver area because the air is thin. Is it true that you take out o2 sensors in the vehicles up there?

That is just too complicated for this early in the morning.

Hey, no harm, no foul.
 
I just thought you & a few of the others might want to go over there and have a read. A lot of the hosts post there, but it's been pretty dead recently.
 
We get into really crucial issues, such as whether there should be a space between an ellipsis and the word which follows or preceedes it. Arcane doesn't begin to describe it, but some of us are that way inclined. "Pinhead" is in the name for a reason.

The toughest thing was getting home at midnight last night, having a little chill time, and getting up this morning for the early shift. The young Rox at least now have something to build on and look forward to. Maybe next year they will start in April instead of September.

I would gladly see The Mariners get swept in the World Series, the Rockies made the list of "never beens" one shorter.

You are absolutely PRICELESS! I love it! Only a paratrooper from Nashville could think of that.

Thanks, Steve. I checked it out, but it doesn't appear to be as much fun as this site. Don't miss what Joel wrote this morning. It is sooooo good.

Do you hear those sirens? Its It's the Grammar Police! Run for your lifes! I mean lives!
 
As someone who holds an English degree, I absolutely hate apostrophe abuse. In some cases, I've walked around town and grocery stores using a marker to remove additional apostrophes whenever possible. I've even contacted the editor of the New York Times to complain about an article using an apostrophe to indicate plural instead of possessive. I also get annoyed when folks use an apostrophe for possessive "its," when they don't realize that the apostrophe makes that into "it's = it is."
 
Oh yeah, I also dislike "whom" abuse. They should do a better job of teaching folks when to use whom and when to us who.
 
Ok, sorry...rant over.

Well, as much fine as it might be here, we can't just let every discussion be a free-for-all. I love grammar as much as the next obsessive geek, but we do need to take those conversations to the grammar forum. We'll just move posts as needed.
 
And... we could MAKE other discussions fun, no?
