Watching Twitter tonight has taught me one thing, Phillies fans are a bunch of whiny dicks. But it's ok, every tank needs a bottom feeder.

And I thought I wanted to hug Johan last week. I think I'm officially in love.

When we discuss some of these crazy things that happen in our crazy world; especially dealing with "educational issues", we need to check word usage. ALL of us are guilty! I am worse now that ever. But, when using the word "your" instead of "you're" , think of how the word is actually used. Your is possessive, it means something is yours, while you're is meaning "you are" Then there is the ever missed "Their" and "There". The word " their" means people, while "there" means a place. "Too" means "also" and "Two" means a number. These are some of the most familiar words misused on comments. Thanks and God bless you all!

"Your" is a possessive determiner, in contrast to the possessive pronoun "yours". "Their" doesn't `mean people`, it's also a possessive determiner; similarly, "there" doesn't `mean a place`; it's not a pronoun at all, but an adverb.
Nothing you said is really wrong; I'm just clarifying...

Thank you Michael. Sounds like you know your english language. I guess one of my terrible pet peeves is the misuse of words like: there and their. Also to and two. Etc...Clarify as much as you wish.
I know there is much more life than the use of words.
