Apparently Autumn will not be gracing us with her presence in Bozeman this year. So sad; she was always a favorite of mine.

It is definitely a good day to curl up with some hot chocolate and a good book.

We are up to our eyeballs in work today, so blogging time is scanty. Instead of my profound thoughts, I will just leave you with the profound thoughts of another:

Dear Mister Language Person: What is the purpose of the apostophe?

Answer: The apostrophe is used mainly in hand-lettered small business signs to alert the reader that an “S” is coming up at the end of a word, as in: WE DO NOT EXCEPT PERSONAL CHECK’S, or: NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY ITEM’S. Another important grammar concept to bear in mind is that you should put quotation marks around random words for decoration, as “TRY” OUR HOT DOG’S, or even TRY “OUR” HOT DOG’S.
