Pardon My Grammar
Funny. I wish I had been writing down all that my friend said. She was a hoot. I don't see her now that I've moved.

The misuse of "to" and "too" is one of my pet peeves too... ;)
I have a good friend who exchanges similar words and it's so funny. She doesn't realize it either. Sometimes I point it out to her and then we both laugh. (ex. "I got my magazine ...

These examples come from all over. My boss was one who used "peek" and "peak". Made me laugh. And I thought I misheard my friend when she said she was a ferocious reader until she said it again. I'm not immune to mistakes either.

Black Snakes in Virginia
When I was a kid, I kept snakes I caught as pets. It was tricky though because my mom was terrified of them. I worked on a goat ranch in Texas that had a rattlesnake problem. The owner bought and released some king snakes to get it under ...

I appreciate your policing the area. I admit I'm the first to go off half cocked with some creative writings that pump through the veins of my brain often leaving out the basic structure which is good grammar. Thanks for the reminders and ...
