First Contest Of 2005
Don’t listen to te SecWar.
He’s plotting another coup and went into my posts purposely planting errors to discredit me.
Reallly, I would’nt lie.
Damn! I should get extra points since I’ve been pointing out “the great one’s” many errors for a while.
I’m SURE we ALL remember the Wesley/Ramsey Clark incident from last week-don’t we Vilmar.*peers over glasses-gives the “mom” look*
Btw boy genius-It’s COMICS-not-CXOMICS.

Yo, when I was up to a baker’s dozen in
missing commas, not to mention the spelling
and fat-fingered typos, I gave up. Syntax?
Oh, we won’t go there. But there is this ...Word Jumble
Illusion? No. But it does play on the mind. What is it in the brain that allows things like this to work? Even though the letters are jumbled in the following paragraph,most people have no trouble reading it!Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn’t mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.

OK, let’s assume I made just “a couple” of those errors. (note to self: must change password so SecWar will not access my posts and purposely place errors in them)
The question becomes this:
Would you rather I delay posting until 10 AM so I can make all the corrections you demand/poke fun of (thus depriving many people of their ability to enjoy this blog at work with their coffee?)
Or would you rather enjoy the postings of a caffeine deprived lunatic mind early in the morning, all of them ready and waiting for you as you arrive at work or awake from your deep slumbers (thus giving you not only news and information but excuses to sharpen your spelling and grammar skills?)
Steel, you’re just encouraging him.
Go to you’re room.NOW.

El Supremo is looking for scapegoats. I never touched any of
thishis posts. Never. Never. Never..... well, almost never. I have been known in the past to set about with my erudite grammarian’s pencil to correct many of El Supremo’s most egregious pontifications and holistically erroneous sentencifications.
While he was not looking, of course.
...I never touched any of this posts...
Ummm,
Memo to Z Woof.
Feel free to contribute to the butchery.
But remember, no knives in class and no
knaves in glass.
....ouch, that really hurt. I’m going to
turn this stupid litle box off now.Posted by Steel Turman

As a product of the government schools, I clearly have nothing to contribute to this posting. Besides, being from the South, English is my 2nd language and I am, therefore, handicapped by my ignorance.
Ya’ll go ahead, though. Maybe I’ll learn something.
Did you say, “You’re a GordHead,” beermeanie?

Or would that be GourdHead, Z?
Actually, according to some -
if ignorance was bliss, I’d be a solid bliss(ter). Go figure.I WISH I was “allowed “ loaded coffee.Alas,Caffine and I have a love/hate relationship-it tends to make me MORE annoying if you can believe that-so I fear I’m stuck in a permanetly “decaf” coma.

From ‘Broken Newz’ on 12-20-02:
The Oakland Board of Education held the first of what they hope will be many all-school Ebonics Competitions this past weekend, and the winner, Huong Lee Fong, 13, couldn’t be happier.
The Grade Eleven student moved to the United States from Wuhan, China with his parents two years ago, skipping three grades and becoming fluent in English after only seven months. He tackled Ebonics next, along with calculus, computer science, algebra, trigonometry and economics.
At his school, Malcolm X Memorial High, he is at the very top of his class in each subject and in the top two of his class in French, History, Geography, German, Spanish and Physical Education, Shop and Drivers Ed. Fong takes home a prize of $100, a Black History Month Sweatshirt, a complete autographed set of the works of Eldridge Cleaver and a promised dinner with Louis Farrakhan sometime in the next month.
Malcolm X Memorial High principal, Leroy Washingon Junior, denied reports he was disappointed that the winner of the competition, designed to increase African-American pride and self-respect, was won by an Asian student. “Not at all, not at all,” he chuckled. “Why, little Huong Lee has worked hard. And anyway, I’m just glad he isn’t a Jewish kid.
