I used the word "apostrophe" and then someone quoted me and the whole shebang ended up italicized. In my original post, my words weren't italicized.

A weighty question, no doubt!

I understand what your saying and my child does no better. I by far not making excuses for my son's actions but please understand that I am owning up to this as my son has n trying to make this rite. N want the parents of the district to know exactly what's going on. - a woman posting on a local news station's facebook page about her son who was expelled for beating another student while a teacher encouraged him. She attended, "Porn Star University," too, so she has that going for her.

You are perfect for the job, MQ. I suggest a cost-saving stock-up trip to Costco. I was also looking out the window on Dangling Participle Day, I never made it through the first round in a spelling bee (fine by me...more time to look out the window) and I have an odd affinity for run-on sentences.
