I am not one to pick on grammatical errors, as we all make them, but one mistake that occurs an a daily basis really gets to me.

It is not "alot", it is two words... "a lot"

As in:

"Hey, yyz? You pick a lot of losers in baseball!"

But, "allot" is a word!

"Yes, I do pick a lot of losers, but I allot myself several dollars per week to give to needy bookmakers!"

Please use the correct spelling of "a lot".


Thanks alot,

yyz

LOL! By the way it's not "but" as when jack drags his "but" out of bed. it is "butt", short for "buttocks".

did i miss something??

YYZ, someone trashing your post's?

 

[yyz]

Nobody trashing me......I was "trashing" myself in those examples. (and I deserve it!)

beany hasn't hit this one yet. give it time though. Don't think any trashing just some humor at the typing. As we all make the same mistakes when it come to spelling correctly.
