I can hardly take that verbal tic that prompts some people to declare everything some form of "amazing." Or "fabulous." Or "awesome."

Phone conversation with customer service worker this week:

CS: And what's your address?

Lodestar recites address.

CS: Fantastic!

Lodestar thinks, Well, it's nice but it's just the name of the street where I live and some numbers.

This is from the newsletter that the my city mails to residents:


There are not different fee's for Resident or Non-Resident. These classes are open to all!

Hopefully these are not English classes.

This is posted by a Wisconsin surgeon who nearly killed me:

Are you're legs fatigued or achey? We can help!

Not only is he a butcher of a surgeon, he's a butcher of the English language.

"need real and honest imput..."

Where did the notion arise that a word such as "imput" exists?

Very interesting (but not suprising) how the "church" chooses to allow it's members to "support" some issues/people and then throws the gontlet down on things they decide aren't aproppriate for their members to be a part of. Religious hypocrisy at it's finest. - on facebook


It's vs. Its... a battle for the ages. Good vs. evil. Ha! I'm throwing down the "gontlet!"

Well, the latest style is colored diamonds.

While describing a water rescue.......
" Jay tied a rope around his waste........ "
Would this have involved what are referred to as 'floaters"?
