Keeping Score
Due to a recent comment written by a sharp-eyed "Anonymous", I've decided on a new, ongoing game. I must admit that although I really can't stand poor grammar and stuff like that, I will undoubtedly make errors. So, for now on I would ask that anytime you find me making these aforementioned errors, please let me know. I will keep track of who notices the most errors and post the scores here in my blog. Once in a while, I will intentionally make an error just to see who picks it up. Keep in mind that the detailed-minded person with the most points will be called "nerd" and "anal-retentive loser" quite often. But please don't let that discourage you from joining in the game.Rules: - typos don't count
- if I mean to write a sentence fragment, that doesn't count
- if I mean to write a run-on sentence, that doesn't count
- all submissions will be judged solely by me and I can change my mind anytime
- if I meant to do something, like not capitalize some words, that doesn't count

Internet speak... with the advent of email has changed grammar. People now speak (ie. type) in sentence fragments and bad grammar more than ever. I saw some mini documentary about it a while back. Besides the English language is the worst for following its own so-called grammatical rules.
detailed-minded --> detail-minded
sorry, anonymous, that one was a typo. doesn't count.
