I too do not fret ending sentences with a preposition.

and sometimes splitting infinitives or dangling participles just have to simply happen

I used to be comma-happy, but in graduate school I learned to use them more sparingly. Now I spot rogue commas everywhere. In fact, rogue commas nearly spoiled the experience of a new book recently. There, were commas, everywhere.

I don't always notice, but I really get mean when it comes to using them improperly in a series.

I have four crockpots...

oh, think of the possibilities . . . paraffin melter, goldfish warmer, towel heater, chocolate melter.

Sometimes I just line them all up and polish them lovingly.

Holy crap! I wish our thrift stores had Cuisinarts.

found one in '89 or so; then a couple of years ago during kitchen updating, my metal blade went missing -- thought about spending $35+shipping to replace it; never did and then a year or so ago found another cuisinart at a goodwill store nearby, complete with metal blade. I think they're around, it's just a matter of dumb luck and/or timing.

How did I now know this! anonymous February 2 2009, 07:16:30 UTC

So this is why we get along so well. I think I just learned more about you in 25 well formatted numbered points than I did in 2 years. Miss you!
