Frank Leahy and grammar?

Good article written after an interview with his Frank's son Fred.

Thought this part was pretty funny after all the grammar talk here recently.

"He was gone a lot," Fred says, "so Mom made us write him letters. When he came home, he brought them with him, all corrected for punctuation and grammar."

Now we know why dshans is an Irish fan... the dude's dad was Frank Leahy.

I hope the kids had thicker skin than some of the posters on here. Come to think of it, dShans looks a bit like Leahy. Hmmmm. Rumor that Leahy loved deer are at this time unfounded.

The deer poops grammatically correct also.

 

[dshans]

The deer poops grammatically correct also.

I would prefer " The deer's poop is also grammatically correct." I parse and diagram his fertilizing "sentences" each and every time.

I thank my father, my mother, a number of Nuns and Priests and parade of lay folk for my idiosyncrasies.

How do you guys not wonder if dshans is indeed Frank Leahy himself?

You mean dshans is writing Kelly letters to have the guys stand up straight and tuck their shirt tails in? Wait till the writer finds this out.

Yes, I am. I'm keeping the USPS close to solvent. I also demand that their socks match their slacks, wear a black belt (black goes with everything!!!) with a subtle buckle and that their syntax is in order.

Did I forget anything? Oh: Go Irish, Happy Holidays and Stay The Course.

That thought had occurred to me also.

Edit: That thought had also occurred to me.

Dammit!

Nope. Clearly my Ma and Pa did. With a little help from Darwin.

Correcting the grammar of someone that clearly has dlyexsia is funny and appropriate. Leahy would be proud. And he would have been disappointed in thin skin posters that actually provide information but can't take being ridiculed for being not up to the standards of this board.

"dyslexia"?

Is that a tuft of chest hair protruding up through your tank top? Also, do you smoke Winston Filters or Basic Lights? Finally, what do you drink in the mornings-- coffee, Busch, or Busch Light?
