It is a bit early for June bugs in my area so maybe Mother Nature sent them early because she knew people are going nuts from bordon. Cheers!

For clarification, I’m not asking about other countries making statements about the United States, it’s about statements they have showing their love of their own countries. ~

But what I don't get is the 9 year old kid in a plastic bubble - instead of throwing the ball to home plate he walks it over in his plastic bubble. I only saw a brief news clip so I don't know what happens when he reaches home plate - he is wearing a helmet so I am assuming that the batter tries hit the bubble into the stands. Cheers and happy Mothers day! less

There is a bit of bragging in the song about our Universal health care system but other then that it's pretty cool. If someone would do me a favor and post a youtube video of the song and post it here it would be appreciated. Cheers and happy Mothers day!

Step One - get into a real un proffesional looking karate stance. Step Two - raise up one arm and say - karate chop. Step three - punch them with your other hand and say - ah so or so sorry. Cheers and happy Mothers day!

Their point might be that the evolution of language is supposed to be accepted or acceptable merely because it happens, yet I counter that there are certainly some instances that show evolution of some things had negative connotations. When it comes to language, it can be used correctly, neutrally, or incorrectly. Additionally, time, place, context and audience are important considerations for how one speaks or writes. Even with my person stance on the subject of proper English, I have long acknowledged that I am not perfect. That being said, we as humans are susceptible to our environments, those being of time period, place, surroundings, culture, customs, people, media, etc. The same English I speak in 20th and 21st century North America would be largely unrecognizable in 16th and 17th century Anglo-Saxon Europe, or almost anywhere in 24th or 25th century planet earth.

and 'Where's it at?' etc, instead of 'Where is she?' or 'Where is it?' Even highly educated people are saying it like that. Has anyone else noticed that? Is it the new norm?

However, outside of that setting, there are very few situations where it seems to only refer to deceased people.~
