    I've met Spud. I can vouch for the fact that SHE is most definitely NOT a eunuch. :)

    Too late. I already dropped an F-bomb today in the Moda thread. That was my quota for the year.

    You actually checked whether there was a dangling participle? Check again. I doubt you will find one.

    For me, Winston Churchill said it best - "A dangling participle is something "up with which I will not put" "

    You know how teachers are too lazy nowadays to teach kids how to handwrite? What do they call it, cursive. Also, in high school geometry, teachers don't teach rigorous proofs. Man, other than proofs, geometry was a lark. Proofs separated the men from the boys.

    Well, the same phenomenon existed many decades ago, when lazy teachers stopped teaching 6th-graders how to diagram sentences. That's why despite 8 years of writing college papers, they didn't teach you the difference between a verb and a predicate.

    Bring back sentence diagramming!
