Crazy internet. Three hyperlinks after Cooper's teabagging, I discovered this gem of a greeting card company. I'm totally sending my mom the "thanks for not drinking booze while carrying me in your womb" card for mother's day.

I'm sure there's some sort of logical explanation for getting from Anderson Cooper to greeting cards, but I'd be hard pressed to figure it out.

I can't take credit for that one. My 9th grade English teacher was a mad can/may stickler. If someone asked "Mrs. Sporinsky, can I go to the bathroom?" She would snap back (lightheartedly) "Can you? No! You're an idiot!"

Damn...getting shot clean through the head and literally having the presence of mind to make tea?! What the deuce is in that Mississippi water, Padre?

Inquiring minds want to know what kind of tea she made.

I've got u beat, my parents are both writer/editors so I was corrected from a very early age... which instilled in me a love of esoteric grammar...

less/fewer, farther/further, can/may, well/good, subjunctive mood... the idiom ones are great too... different from instead of different than, etc.... not to mention pronoun agreement, parallel comparisons, the list goes on...

Haha no kidding. I wonder if I could get in on performing these tests... for science, of course. Any volunteers? Wes?
