Recs

Note how the above does not include apostrophe abuse. I just finished reading an excellent book; Eats, Shoots & Leaves, by Lynne Truss. It is a most excellent, humorous, and instructive book about punctuation, including some simple rules for the proper approach to all the common marks. The apostrophe, comma, semi- and colon, dash, hyphen, question mark, exclamation, and full stop (known to us in the U.S. as the period), as well as parentheses and brackets, and a brief detour around the ellipsis are all given educational and amusing coverage. Read her book and inform yourself of the beats within the dance of language!

I must also recommend again the tv series Due South. I just re-watched one of my favorite fanvideos for it and I must share.
