Dumber'n'a stump. The both of you.

[Bob J]

True. Better if I had written some. Sorry.

[knak]

And you're being rude.

[Snuffington]

Hey, no problem. Wouldn't be the first time I was the last to know something.

[The Mayor]

you got alot of balls!

[Nick Danger]

Dude, don't be casting stones.

I think he can. There's no glass in his house. I just read a whole page of his postings in other threads. Sister Mary Yardstick did a job on this guy... not one grammo in several dozen notes. And he goes to places in the language where a lot of people goof. There isn't even a spelling mistake. There is one misspelled word on his profile page, and that turns out to be an exact quotation from a scientific paper.

Are overseas columns welcome?

[prion]

Well, duh. I'm trying as hard as I can.

If you want to attract writers, you don't make a trailer park grammar error in the advert.

[Bob J]

Did you ever hear the phrase "technically correct but a social clod"...

[Happygal]

FYI, babe! :-)

[knak]

If you want to attract friends don't be an ass.

[Cool Guy]

prion - Just curious. What is a "virius"? This is from your homepage.

[Happygal]

Well, I'm a journalist for the last 13 years, and I often make spelling and grammar errors.

Thankfully, my company employs sub-editors to catch mine.

What's your excuse? ;-)

[prion]

Oh, Nick, you're such a tool :)

[Bob J]

Absolutely!

Please stop the sophmoric personal attacks.

[Cool Guy]

Do ya thunk U vil sumday pubklish my colum? vere kan I send it?

[prion]

Dogpile on the protein!

[Focault's Pendulum]

Satire is fine, think Ann Coulter or Mark Steyn. The issue with the example referenced above had more to do with the style in which it was written, it was like a transcript from a debate. The content was fine but the structure didn't lend itself to an opinion column.

Ok. got it. Road kill is out. Thanks.

'Tis a pity....I do good road kill.
