I never teach it because I'm not convinced of its utility. But I do enjoy it.

I vaguely remember having fun diagramming sentences in middle school but I can't remember how to do it now.

Grammar turned into formulas, of course I loved it. (Now, it didn't really help me with english grammar. I read so much my writing was intuitive. I don't think I really got a firm grasp on parts of speech until I started learning foreign languages.)

Holy shit, smonster. I would cast blame on New Orleans. Tell 'em to get a lawyer, because... hell to the no.

smonster,

do they have title insurance? that's the kind of thing title insurance is supposed to help deal with.

There should not have been a closing on the house if there was an outstanding mortgage. The title company could be (should be) sued.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

They can't figure out how the existing loan didn't come to light when they bought the house originally.

Just no. If a title search wasn't done to obtain a clear title when the loan originated, it's the title company's fault, not your friend's. Lawyer up!

So tomorrow afternoon my department is supposed to play kickball. I've elected not to play considering that it's going to be HOT tomorrow and I have a history of heat stroke. I'm already feeling not so great because it's been super hot for days, and I really don't want to be the one who passes out.
