Hmmm...no option to quote text in Tapatalk HD...interesting. I don't know why you thought that would chap my cushions. The writer and I largely agree. Forex: Pitchfork is an outlier in this regard. That is, the vast majority of the legion of logical punctuators are not consciously rejecting...

No, you have the instruction of all my English teachers and every English teacher I've ever heard of, from this side of the pond, anyway. I think it was the Copy Editing book that detailed how this issue is handled differently in British English than here, but I'm not sure. I'll look it up when...

Electronics & electrical systems are definitely not my bag, so I don't know how this works. But I did have a cell phone battery that would drain quickly if I plugged it into my car.

Sorry, my elementary and high school educations weren't online. But that doesn't stop me from knowing or telling the difference between than & then: lose & loose: a & an; etc. and ect.; or how to punctuate around quotation marks. My English teachers from this side of the pond were very emphatic...

Keep in mind we're dealing with gummint officials who lower the unemployment rate by redefining the formula by which it's calculated, and supposedly eliminated the budget deficit during the Clinton regime (another lie) by cooking the books. They know exactly what they're doing when they use the...

Black, it is awful. Did you try cream & sugar?

American English, despite a recent push for it, doesn't use such contextual logic. Never has. That's why, when an American visits the jolly ol', Brits have been known to ask, "What brings you here? Coming to learn the language?" The writer, apparently a dummy, herself, is one behind the push to...

Pearl overstated it a bit. Every call, fax, etc. is saved by the gummint. For how long, no one knows. But each one is analyzed for hot words like bomb, president, and a whole bunch of other words. My posting those two words together means this message will be read by a G-Man whose job it is to...

And the woke nation would be a lot freer had that son of a ***** Lincoln not had the opportunity to turn our system of government on its ear. We wouldn't have the feral gummint, which was created by the States, be their master.

Voila...sigh...

I'm surprised there isn't one of these about the federal level. Maybe with Eric Holder as Hitler.

If that judge ever needs surgery, his surgeon should be one who was graduated from med school on the same terms and who had to take his boards over and over and over before he could pass.

The punctuation always goes inside the quotation marks, without exception.

Turtles have cloacas.

It was on its way out, unavoidably. Once the cotton 'gin was invented, the tide turned, and it was becoming more expensive to keep slaves than become mechanized.

Don't know how accurate this site is, but here it is for comment. I don't think even this administration is so foolish to believe America would allow gun confiscation. http://theulstermanreport.com/2013/01/16/republican-insider-obama-livid-over-gun-rights-backlash/

Looks real good. Split layout. Still no WYSIWYG editor. Can't imagine why that's so difficult.

I really don't think that's their reasoning.

I have a lot of differences with OVM, but I don't think there was anything wrong or defamatory in his post. He's merely stating a fact--that all empires fall, and we have indeed become an empire. And our fall is coming, and coming quick. How long will America be able to continue in a form we...

Uh, incestuous.
