Love the blog - bad grammar is one of my pet peeves, too, along with improper punctuation. If you’re recruiting a grammar vandal army, sign me up! It’s nice to know that schools aren’t failing ALL of today’s young people; that some, like you, are coming out WITH knowledge of proper grammar.

I love you. I bow to your Sharpie. I’ve snagged a few pictures of my own, and I humbly submit them for your approval.

Dear Kate,
A reader of my own blog sent me here after she read my most recent post, and I’m duly impressed to find someone who is even more militant about proper spelling and grammar than I am. It brings warm feelings to my heart.
My own post on the general subject is here:
And I think, now, I’ll have to add this one to my RSS feed. Thank you for spreading the righteous indignation of grammatical pedantry. You rock.
Best,
Simon

Hello Kate,
We are peas in a pod. My personal etymology, so to speak, for this affliction (addiction?) is my father’s insistence on correct diction and grammar at the dinner table. So, as you may imagine, I could no more disown my righteous indignation at the butchering of the English language than I could disown my grandmother — or my father, for that matter. (Think Barack Obama and his momentous speech on race in the United States.)
Will you marry me? Or, better: Shall we wed?
David

Oh, by the way, I am an alum of Boston College. It seems our common peapod includes the Boston area and Jesuit education. Way cool.
