    Awesome! I don't know how you get things made "sticky", but this one should be...needs a little grammar and spelling editing though. Don't take offense, just trying to help! :wink: :flowerforyou:

    Looks at the clock.... Girl, it was like 4:30 am when I wrote that, which is roughly half past the loss of the English vernacular and 4 hours away from a the now 26 hour involuntary insomniac video editing marathon I'm currently experiencing. Grammar or spelling is the LAST thing I'm thinking about right now. You're lucky I could see the screen well enough to press "Post Topic". ;D

    Oh, I get it. I am not immune to spelling and grammar mistakes, far from it. Just saying it needs to be cleaned up a bit before become a sticky, especially since a lot of people get called out on their posts for similar mistakes.

    LOL.. I couldn't even type my reply to you without fumbles. I sincerely need to go to bed. Wow.

    Calling out spelling/grammar mistakes is actually against the Community Guidelines.

    Just putting that out there.

    Well hot damn?! I didn't know that, but at the same time I never correct people anyway (especially publicly)... not my style. Not to mention that in most forums people are talking candidly with each other, we aren't writing dissertations or legal paperwork. I'd feel like an *kitten* if I felt compelled to be "that guy".

    I'm all about the CG (all hail).

    I gotta know the rules so I can get away with skirting them, lol

    Nice concept.

    [nitpick]"You're" - contraction indicating 'you are;' "your" - indicative of possession.[/nitpick]
    And than/then and about 500 other things.:wink:

    Huh, I didn't know that. You see quite a bit of it on the boards, especially put in less-than-kind terms. Sorry, no offense meant, just think its important in getting one's point across in a post that is intended for a large audience.

    As someone with very few posts, I'd like to say that's because I read lots (as you advise), not because I have spurious ideas on diet and nutrition! :)
