If you find it interesting, I feel sorry for you. ;-)

It's ironic that I'm supposed to be a professional writer and I still
can't tell the difference in most cases. Maybe after I keep talking

I've confused poisonous with venomous. And my guilt is composed of
misusing comprise.

I'll have to watch the Castle series again, to find the episodes where
Nathan Fillion corrects other peoples' grammar.

And Princess Bride FTW!
