bluesbassdad Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 No way, man! That'd be like giving a gift certificate to Weight Watchers or a case of deodorant. The only time I take exception to what I perceive as misuse of the English language is when it is done by media types, and even educators, who I think bear responsibilty as role models of sorts. My friends ( ) can dangle participles, split infinitives, and use run-on sentences all they want. I figure that if anyone wants my advice in such matters, he or she (Whew! I almost wrote "they". Close call.) will ask for it. The last time that happened was some time before 1998, the year I retired. Yours truly, Dave Morefield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_in_Canada Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 LOL This, my friends, is called bird-tracking. Poor Nick was just lookin' for some advice and now he has to wade through pages of grammatical ponderings. Dave, the whisky and whiskey lover.

kitzg Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 Oh, Sh#t -- Now since I am an educator you want me to be a role model! Well, at least I enjoyed the fun with Dave. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
