First of all, Cool had this response to my blog posts on grammar:
"I never knew my grammar nor my granddad."
That's cool, Cool.
Now, for the "Vindication of j" who meant chic, not sheik. Turns out it's not her misspelling at all. She speaks her texts, therefore it is her cell phone that thinks I am the leader of a Muslim group.
Sheik is pronounced "shake." Shriek! Chic sheiks shriek for shakes - especially the strawberry variety, as opposed to the cedar variety!
ReplyDeleteI don't know who this Cathie is, but it sure is nice to know that someone out there is following this blog, and might I add, she is very clever. I wonder if she is the person after whom Cathie Avenue Southeast is named. I can't 'sheik' this feeling that I have 'cedar' before...
