You know it's a fucked up world we live in when the U.S. Congress is likely to approve ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY BILLION DOLLARS for a completely un-winnable, useless war in Iraq and we can't even slow down for people trying to cross the fucking street. Hey, fuck face in the big black truck who doesn't give a shit if I live or die? I hope you don't kill somebody less important than you just because you're late for your stupid ass meeting...

Hey!?
Dumbass!?
It's "all intents and purposes" not "all intensive purposes"
It's "regimen" when it involves some sort of strict routine.
It's "regime" when it involves a set of rules dictating how a government operates.
It's "taut" when referring to the slack being taken out of a line.
It's "taunt" when kids are teasing one another.
"A.M." means before noon and "P.M." means afternoon.
Thus, if you have flight to catch at "8:00 A.M." you don't need to add "in the morning" to the end.
If you are going to Starbucks to get a concentrated coffee drink, you are buying an "espresso" not an "expresso", which simply sounds like some term dreamed up in a (now failed) ad agency.

If I have any readers (ever or remaining) you now have permission to skewer me in regard to my spelling and usage of the English language.
I only request that you flame me after 10:00 A.M. in the morning.
