158. Someday I will be a half-decent writer.
Edited on Mon Aug-08-05 01:21 PM by brainshrub
90% of my posts have glaring errors in grammar, spelling and context. When I post something more than a few paragraphs long, I usually spend the 60 minutes window editing and re-editing.

Even then, I miss mistakes.

"...she has unwillingly spread the seed in the electorate that policies supporting policies that benefit everyone is an insult."

Should be: "she has unwillingly spread the seed in the electorate that policies that benefit everyone is an insult."

and

"This incident has just reminded me of an incident from my childhood:"

Should be: "This conversation reminds me of an incident from my childhood:"
