OT - grammar groan

I got email from DS's coach - he's arranged to have someone "sow" on the name



LOL - is there some slip as to how he thinks about people that sew?

Don't broadcast it. (I'll get my coat)

My other thought was go get the winter rye (commonly used by organic types as green manure)

Only if the name is Miss Piggy.

If I point out that the problem is not grammar, do I have to duck and run?

And I was *just* about to post this little grammar/punctuation exercise (you've probably seen it) I got from a friend:

An English professor wrote the words: "A woman without her man is nothing" On the chalkboard and asked his students to punctuate it Correctly. All of the males in the class wrote: "A woman, without her man, is nothing." All the females in the class wrote: "A woman: without her, man is nothing."

Just make sure he waters in it well.

Sheesh.

Sara

Oh yes!!!

Cheryl (who's been to two rinks today!)
