The person who wrote this stupid crap I'm editing uses "ruff" instead of "rough".
WTF. Is the person's favorite song also Tuff Enuff by The Fabulous Thunderbirds?
'The Killer In Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Is the person secretly a dog?
I suspect the person is not-so-secretly a crap writer and should not have been asked to document this thing. There's also "differently" and "differentially", and I can't tell if it's supposed to be the same word each time it's used.
The previous section was written by someone who was much more coherent, but tended to use "e.g." at the end of almost every freaking sentence, e.g., like this.

I always write "cat food" on our grocery list as "cat fud" because of The Far Side.
t edit I also write "dog fud," just to be fair to both species.
Here is how you know I don't live in Mayberry: today the police raided the candy store on the main street through town, because the candy store is, as we all know, a front for drug dealers. (You can buy candy there, but I have no idea if anyone does.)
Oh, Northside.
Steph, or anyone else, do you have any ADHD stratagy book recommendations?
I'm pretty sure bay area 'fistas know about the Piedmont High School bird calling contest. The winners get to appear on Letterman. Last year the son of my Oakland PM was on the first place team. This year his team came in second. I've known this kid since he was born. Anyway, today is the taping at Letterman and it airs tomorrow night. He is the only dark haired kid on the second place team. I'm so utterly thrilled for him. Also, Letterman's team is very generous with the airfare and accomodations for these kids.

I'll ask Tim when he gets home. (Which is shameful, since I am the librarian for the CHADD group, and we do in fact have a section of books on ADHD and adolescents. But I don't know which ones are most useful and which ones are a waste of time.) I'm making a note right now to ask him tonight, and I'll let you know. Want me to email you?
