This is my first time visiting this site, I was referred to it by my english Professor. I’ve only read the January 2010 issue and I must say I will continue to visit your site. I’ve found it to be witty, humorous and very informative.

Hi. I just found your site when Goggling “Oh my stars and garters,” which was an expression used by on of my favorite sports commentators, Tracee Hamilton, who writes for the Washington Post. (Please don’t mistake be for a wild-eyed liberal due to subscribing to that rag — but they do have outstanding sports coverage and by some weird circumstance carry George Will’s columns.) Anyway, I love your site and to back it up just shot in my $15.00 so I can be the beneficiary of all the bells and whistles that accompany and accrue to such donors. Sorry to read about your MS. My first wife had MS and I sympathize with your diagnosis. Blessings and best wishes. Ron <
