Ellipses…

Last year was the year to cut back on commas. This year, ellipses…

See what I mean?

I blame my poor grammar on living abroad for 11+ years - use it or lose it. I’ve also noticed my speech as become more lazy, less articulated, almost texan. Then again, don’t all Americans sound like either George Bush or Woody Allen?

Is it too late to make a resolution?

Because Freedom Means Cookies…

cookies for Obama

I promised I’d bake if Obama won, so it’s biscotti with white and dark chocolate drops, “pecan pie” muffin bites and chocolate chip cookies, all from scratch.

Of course Freedom means Cookies - You don’t get chocolate chip cookies in Communist countries. You get borscht!  smile

knees please

Another 6 months, another knee operation. Meniscus repair in the old skiing injury, I’ll have two newly-refurbished knobbies this year, and a greater respect for BBC daytime TV.

Although, “Doctors” - how can anyone watch that crap? 

To all the Americans who whine about socialistic medicine, you should be so lucky.
