Grammar and Spelling and the Daily Strumpet

I have been reading my own blog! I think I already posted those photos. I have discovered lots of spelling and grammar errors.
I also found a stack of old "Daily Strumpets." They have the same problems... Perhaps this is why I was always on the verge of getting fired during my brief tenure at the News-Times.
I may put a few Strumpets on the blog if I can figure out how. I think I can do it as a pdf.
If my neighbor's dog shoots him again I am certainly doing a "Daily Strumpet." Can't do one based on a 5 year-old event.
This whole editing thing has always been an issue for me.
I write really fast. If I slow down I loose my train of thought as I have the attention span of a gnat. (I assume that is really short) I am always in a hurry writing as I only think of things to say when  I should be at work. I discovered that the funny grinding noise coming from the left front wheel when ever I applied the brake, was not a rock caught in the brake rotor. No, it was a missing brake rotor pad. Now I have to install a new rotor. Which goes to show the follow of the whole, "it's not a lie if you believe it school of equipment repair and mantinance.
Gotta Go! Goodbye!

  1. I understand your problem. I was once told that my mine goes so fast that my fingers don't keep up. Sometimes I think my speech is the same.

  2. Dear Anon Y. Mouse, thanks for your comment. I see that I didn't actually proof that post. I don't know if that makes it ironic or just silly!
