Chatty!co-worker suggested that I hire myself out as a grammar dominatrix.

That would be the best job ever. "That's a restrictive clause, bitch." Thwak! "See that comma?" Thwak! "What do you do with that comma?" Thwak! "Remove it, bitch."

And in a confluence of topics, I was just bitching to my co-workers about people who misuse commas and how I must kick their asses. Chatty!co-worker suggested that I hire myself out as a grammar dominatrix.

Hee. I was just running back to Bitches to do exactly what Tommy did. Damn my slow brain.

Dont tease, Teppy everyone. Its just, not nice if you no what I mean.

General poll: what did you do after you graduated college?

I worked for several months in a factory to save up enough money for a car. Lived with my folks, driving down to visit DH (who was then my fiancee) on weekends. Took a series of soul-sucking, menial jobs and then got married. We lived on nothing but love and macaroni and cheese until DH finished college a year later.

I'd encourage people getting out of school to travel and do some fun stuff before deciding on anything.

well, I certainly want to beat the crap out of people for bad grammar, so i can sympathize. Or start a franchise in DC, whichever.

I was living with Paul and working part-time when graduation occurred. (We should have graduated together, but I blew off some incompletes and took a mental health year, during which I worked lame, mostly temp, jobs.)

I suspect doing fun and exciting things requires that you either not be part of a couple, or that neither of you have jobs and rent to pay.

Speaking of dominitrices:

DEDHAM, Massachusetts (AP) -- A dominatrix was acquitted of manslaughter Monday in the death of a man who prosecutors say suffered a heart attack while strapped to a replica of a medieval rack.

Prosecutors said Asher confessed to police, but the alleged confession was not taped.

Investigators testified they did not save their notes.

Asher's lawyer, Stephanie Page, said there was nothing to prove Lord was even dead -- no body, no blood, no DNA.

During his closing argument to the jury, prosecutor Robert Nelson put on a black leather mask with a zippered mouth opening and re-enacted the bondage session.

With both hands, he reached back and clutched the top of a blackboard as if strapped to the rack. Then he hung his head as if dead.

Asher's lawyer objected, and the judge agreed.

"That's enough Mr. Nelson," Judge Charles Grabau said. "Thank you for your demonstration."

yeah, I can't believe they went through with this case. There was nothing to prove the guy was even dead. And who doesn't cover their ass with a grisly dominatrix/murder confession? The whole thing stank. I am amazed that the motions to dismiss were denied. Now, even if they find the dude, can't they NOT try her again 'cause of double jeopardy?

And who doesn't cover their ass with a grisly dominatrix/murder confession?

People who are lying because they want to see the kinky freak locked up?
