Poor, poor Moz. He's so kind to animals that everything he does must be golden--detractors be damned!

Someone wrote of the site in question:

"The site, these days, is just a cock waggling/troll baiting bitch-fest. Best avoided."

Which brough this about:

"a cock waggling/troll baiting bitch-fest? I'm logging on as we speak, sounds fun."

Mr. Brian better watch his ass at the next Bunnymen show he attends.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

And the oxford comma? Someone mentioned that to me (of all people) the other day. I nodded politely, made my excuses and wemt and looked it up on the internet. As with most things I'm still undecided.

I was taught to use it, but I have no feelings about it one way or the other.

I was taught that the serial (Oxford) comma is optional; however, I prefer to use it. If others (just as correctly) choose not to, I don't fault them on it. All the English majors I know prefer the use of this comma over omitting it.

Well I always use a big letter to start each line and a dot at the end. So there.

Peter Allen invented the Oxford Apostrophe.
