The campaign has begun. We need to get Bâby in the Top 5.

Best goalie in the nation. . .nuff said! Get Dave in the top five. . .
Vote once a day at the url in the above post.

It's L-E-N-E-V-E-U. Sorry, but that irks me. IF he's so good, spell his damn name right. Don't mean to be the grammar nazi

You mean grammar?

That should be the "spelling" nazi.

Frankly it doesn't matter how you spell Bâby or baby or Bobby. Just vote for Stephen or Steve or Stevie.

Mo

Only a diction nazi would correct "spelling nazi" for "grammar nazi."

But only a semantics nazi would--oh never mind...

Just filling in for Beeeej, for whom this sort of thing is a pet peeve.

Erica,

First: I know how to spell his "damn name" but made a simple mistake with the key strokes. Maybe you've heard of these things called mistakes. . .but then again if you've never made one then I'll be glad to excuse myself and shut up.

Second: The first "e" is NOT capitalized.

Third: You could be proactive and correct the subject line in your damn post.

Fourth: How's the damn view from your glass house?!?

Just another reason to vote for Bâby - Lenny's last name is too hard to spell and pronounce. I mean it doesn't get much better or simpler than Bâby.

Mo

I disagree with you about Lenny Ben, but I did get a laugh with your reaction to Erica. Don't get me wrong, I will vote for Lenny "with full support," but Bâby is definitely getting my first place votes!

Best,
Ogie

I don't know how I could get a laugh out of that reaction. Unfortunately, instead of trying to be helpful to one another it seems like we sometimes try the opposite. Can't we all assume that we want the same thing, and when we try and correct someone, try and put a smiley face with it. After all Erica did say "sorry", and "didn't mean to..." . So it doesn't seem like she had a bad intent. Also proofreading ones posts does sometimes eliminate those nasty typos.

Maybe it's just too long between home games.

one's posts (she types, tentatively)

I know the first E isn't capitalized. I capitalized all of them for emphasis. What's up your butt dude? I understand mistakes, but I also understand proofreading. And by no means are you the first one to do it. That's why it is irking. Because it happens all the time....

Looks like she's at it again..

Oh well, all anyone can do is to try.

Is anyone else confused by this dialogue?

Yes, very much so Jason.

Let me try to explain.

I tried to get people to be nice when they correct a post.

Anne nicely pointed out my mistake.

Erica was a "little testy" in her response.

Then "looks like she's at it again" followed by "Oh well, all anyone can do is try.", meaning, I guess my point did not get across.

OK, I hope this is enough about it. After all, we haven't had a home game in what, 6 weeks? On to hockey.
