    If I were going to where a skirt, I think I'd choose something a little less revealing
    I have never whorn a skirt in my life. Nor do I ever intend on whering such a garment. Each to their own, though. Everyone may feel free to where what they please.

    Sigh. What do they teach in English class these days?

    When I was out on Tartan Day I met a lady who didn't know what a tartan was and, although she recognised the kilt, she didn't know the name of it or that it was okay for men to wear (I've stopped telling people it's actually for men and it's okay for women to wear it).

    I had a debate with a prof one day: I was saying that the accurate use of the language is important, he said it wasn't.

    "We have to value other people's ideas, even if that person doesn't use the language well."

    "That may be true but, if the language is not used accurately, the valuable idea may not be understood."

    I wrote on the board 'there home' and asked "What is that supposed to mean?" He said that was a bad example (although it's one I see constantly) and insisted that he was right. A university professor who insisted that poor use of the language was a good thing. What chance do we have? Their is going two bee know hope four hour language if wee keep this up.

    To your point...I couldn't even read that the first time through. I realized what you did and had to reread aloud and listen to myself to understand what was written. Well done
