Am I turning in to the grammar police because the poor writing bothers me the most? Capital letters, spelling, paragraph usage? Am I just an old fogie?
BTW, Michele, I'm still waiting for my copy of the "Blogger Chicks Gone Wild" video.

I watched about 5 minutes of it before i got sick of it and turned it off. i was also going to blog about it, but i didn't hang around for the question and answer session, so i thought it better not to, since i didn't have a total frame of reference. I don't want to clutter your inbox with another piece of mail, so consider this comment praise mail.

These are the moments that I suggest skipping to the candy store - skip, damn you! - and picking out lollipops of every color of the rainbow. Then, you put them in a bag, and pick out a lolipop. Sing about the color of the lollipop - sing, damn you! - and then consume it slowly with lick after lick.

Try being quoted in USA Today... I had one nutjob email me, the PA Bar Association, the OH Bar, and the National Bar association because the article mentioned I was in lawschool. Thankfully, the person was a bonafide nutjob so the hatemail will likely not have any sort of negative influence on me. What is meta filter, btw?

Laurence, you scare me more every day.
What really scares me, however, is that it sounds like a really good idea.

People still read MeFi now that there's Fark?
Posted by: Ian S. | April 14, 2004 10:55 AM
Ian, MeFi is to Fark as Wonkette is to The Command Post.

I'm sorry you're getting hate mail. I like you, even without ass-fucking.

Dianna, my husband said the same thing to me last night!

You think there's a high correlation there? Start commenting on the Yanks and Sox again, and watch us come out of the woodwork!

Why is it people with appalling grammar and bad spelling never write nice emails?
Posted by: Crank | April 14, 2004 08:40 PM
Of course, I rarely get hate mail - maybe it's because my email address has an underscore in it, which requires mastery of the "Shift" key.
Posted by: Crank | April 14, 2004 08:44 PM
Oooh. Good idea, Crank.
Michele, you were linked over there? Couldn't find it on the main page.
'Course, I didn't look too hard.
