No reason to expect "worthy posts" in what is basically just printed conversation in which nobody ever interrupts anyone else and nobody is forced to listen to the rants--or in my case, the deep wisdom. Everybody can read whatever interests them, ignore what doesn‘t. Once it's established that the gentleman is okay, there can be related discussion such as the dangers of texting while driving, the dangers of NOT having your cell phone in your hand while driving such that you have to hunt for it when it rings while you're negotiating a double curve, effects on historic Bluff Springs architecture, damage to small businesses here, the benefits of having firefighters ready and willing to help, even the function of catalytic converters on automobiles. Paul Harvey would have said there was more to the story than just the story itself. Everything relates to everything else. It’s worth considering. David thinking about asbestos shingles REGARDING:

And, yes, evaluations of terms like "hot water heater" are grammar, more specifically, the area of grammar studies known as useage. It's simply more understandable in casual conversation than "warm water re-heater". As far as " people sticking their noses into other people’s business ", isn't what most of this is? Personally, the only posts that are worthy are those like "worried resident" whose eloquent statement shows concern for the man in the story. As for me, I am truly thankful because except for God's grace, that could be me! I sincerely apologize to DHG – those remarks were indeed intended for “Disabled and Struggling”.

I was the one who was complaining about people's mistakes (NOT grammar, that's a completely different subject) not David. He was only responding to what I said. As for my thoughts not being original, of course, they are. They're mine and I've felt this way since moving to this town, my mother's hometown, in middle school (a lot longer ago than I would like to admit, lol). I see people's typos and grammar mistakes here and, yes, honestly, they DO bother me. However, I don't feel the need to point them out to everyone because A) most people in our area speak that way; B) most people don't like to be corrected; and C) most people, myself included, would think that I was a pompous ass if I were to do so. Another pet peeve: people sticking their noses into other people's business when they have NO CLUE what they are talking about! (Yes, I gave you one. I ended a sentence with a preposition. Does that make you feel better?) Um, Gembeaux, perhaps you should try a little harder with reading comprehension.
