Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I am the exception to the rule.
I'm with Sue.
And Sue and sumi prove once again that the One True Common Trait amongst Buffistas is that they all share no common traits (again, cept that Buffy show maybe).
Except that I'm not sure what a comma splice is.
A comma splice is two main clauses linked by a comma. (ex: The wind was cold, they decided not to walk.) You can usually fix them by throwing a conjunction after the comma or just making them two sentences. I know you didn't ask. But I haven't edited anything in days and I was feeling some grammar withdrawal.
ION - did all emusic users know that once you've downloaded something you can download it again and again and it doesn't count against your monthly total? Very handy considering how much stuff I have lost off my hard drive since I opened my account.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I feel for the poor misunderstood semicolon; no one understands it.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Eff the semicolon. There, I said it.

I feel your love. But as I told my brother when I was writing his last paper helping him with his last paper - you want a dead giveaway that somebody wrote something for you? Go from being a comma splicer straight to using semicolons.
He wanted a semicolon in there so bad and I said no college professor would really believe that anyone still in college knew how to properly use a semicolon. Well, not him anyway.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I feel for the poor misunderstood semicolon; no one understands it.
I've been known to use the semicolon correctly; however, I've stopped using it at work because reviewers edit it out of everything I write.

I worship the ground the semicolon walks on; I respect all who know how to use it.
