Missing Xanga a Lot

A repost from Chico Garcia's blog.  "http://chicogarcia.wordpress.com/"  Chico is from RX93.1, Morning Rush program with Del is our morning station.  Without a miss, the radio is always on to them everyday except Saturdays.  Top Ten is our favorite portion of the program.

Have a good laugh!!!!

I love language.  Ever since I was young, I always loved grammar and its many quirks.  I love checking out words that I don’t understand in the dictionary.  I love reading grammar books and manuals on writing.  Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a snob, but I also find it so much fun to study the different grammatical errors that people make.  Besides, I make so many myself.  But if pointed out constructively and not in a rude way, I actually love it when people correct me when I’m wrong.  Better corrected than making the same mistake over and over again.
