Wait, Wait

Can't go to bed. Right after my CB post I checked my email and learned that next Wednesday, March 4th is NATIONAL GRAMMAR DAY! Brought to you by your good friends at SPOGG.

Mark your calendars; buy a T-shirt; do your civic duty by voting for the Worst Celebrity Grammar.

Did I use those semi-colons correctly? Speaking of semi-colons (or according to the NYT style sheet "semicolons":

Never use semi-colons. What are they good for? What are you supposed to do with them? You're reading along, and then suddenly, there it is. What does it mean? All semi-colons do is suggest you've been to college. --Kurt Vonnegut

That's a Big 10-4, Good Buddy.

I was watching Smokey and the Bandit last night with my husband, and I got to thinking: blogging is this decade's CB radio.

Oh, and if you haven't seen Bandit, in oh, say, 31 years, I suggest you rent it soon. Come back?

Polish up on your CB slang for a richer experience, while your at it. All the good numbers to you, little brothers. I'm off to press some sheets.
