Wigglesworth, you could not write your way out of a paper bag, even if you tried. jbe P.S. Sorry, but my scholarship is the real thing, whether you like it or not.

[Read some of my past posts on other threads and you may see that most of the time I post just for fun, without the pomposity, the phony scholarship, that reak the internet and this thread in particular.] Wigglesworth, you are being deliberately vicious here and I really don't understand it. Since I post here frequently, I feel attacked. If you wish to have a quarrel with jbe, it is your choice to do so, although why you wish to do so is beyond my comprehension. I do request that you not take a whack at the entire thread, however, since most of the time, we are simply having fun.

Well, Mr. W., I did go through some of your past posts. You say that most of the time you post "just for fun". Do you mean that you post in order to poke fun -- at other people? As in the following posts: Message 7482032 Message 8100671 Message 8987733 Message 9531661 Message 7655700 Message 7671331 Now, maybe these folks are all your buddies, in which case they presumably don't mind your "joshing." But if they are NOT your buddies, I think that you are being needlessly rude to them, and that your sneering at their misspellings, grammatical errors, stylistic boo-boos, & etc. is in the worst of taste. Of course, you do claim that you always flunked English Composition in college. Is that a prerequisite for becoming a Grammar Maven? jbe
