There is a NYT op-ed that is making me seethe today. I can't imagine what Lily Ledbetter must be feeling.
Which one, Sparky? I could do with a good seething.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Semi-colons have a use in sentences, especially with lists, but I think they're ugly and think that a sentence should be split into two instead of being joined with a semi-colon. To me, using a semi-colon is just showing off that you know how to use that particular punctuation mark and that you don't care about the esthetics of a sentence and being as clear as possible to the reader."
Now I want to send her an email with as many semi-colons as possible.
I'm not sure what that means in this context, but it sounds good.
The doctors and nurses swear my pain management doctors have created a pain contract for me in the ER, and that they must follow that to the letter. No such thing ever happened, because my pain management doctors refuse to prescribe me any sort of medication (don't ask, I can't answer). But when a doctor/nurse is feeling balky, they cite some magic document. My migraine specialist has finally found this document, and I hope he can exercise some degree of control over it. I can't bargain on cool nurses like last week.
If I hadn't had such a decent ER experience Sunday morning, there's no way I could work after two nights of such poor sleep. My head is killing. I just really need to drag myself through every day this week.
I really am the whiniest sick person ever.
OOOH, a challenge!
I join your seethe, Sparky. Equal pay for equal work - how hard is that to understand?
A few miles from my apartment, a business had half of its roof blown off.
I was surprised to see all that on the news last night. It rained here, but I didn't notice any crazy wind.

Who gets to clean up that tube?
What if I have two independent clauses that have a lot in common and want to be joined together? Why can't they express related idea love?
Ooh, Christina Hoff Sommers! This oughta be good.
