“10 Days” Down

So do you really want to protect the children... or not?The title to this post says it all – today marks us being a third-of-the-way through NaBloPoMo. It's proving to be a little bit tougher than I anticipated, but I'm confident that I can make it through. It's all about determination and having guts.

I put todays title in quotes for a “reason.” I've recently discovered a hilarious web site that shows tons and tons of “photos” where people have used quotes unnecessarily. The blog is aptly titled, THE “BLOG” OF “UNNECESSARY” QUOTATION MARKS.

It's always funny to see where “people” have used quotes to say something, because when something is in quotes, are they being specific or sarcastic. Case in point:

So I went to this “party” the other night.

Was the party something more than just a party? Was the party lame? Or was the party just a regular party and that wasn't the emphasis of your story?

You gotta be careful with your quoting, people. The delicate “balance of society” may depend on it.

Favorite use of quotes:

"Used Book's for "sale"
50 cents unless they are "more"

Found at the Fayetteville Salvation Army.

I "bought" none.
