Ok, this is for all the grammar/english nerds out there like myself...

What you do is you write a sentence with an error in it...The next person corrects the error and makes their own sentence...It can be a spelling error, grammar error, any kind of error...

My mistake is in my first sentence /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Suppose to be I could have said the first thing though.

This seems like a pretty good idea Kris.

When you learn to use spaces after commas (...much, and....), then that wouldn't be good for this thread.
It's alright, you're not the only one.


I'll learn 'em to use commas properly! I'll learn 'em!

between refers to 2 things not 3.

Everyone has their own plan in mind.

(Despite the fact that I think this is easy.....not a single person i know does this right)
