two words that don't make one.

per request, today's lesson is about two words that some believe can be combined to create one word, but in actuality, they are wrong. combining the two words is wrong. i learned this in eighth grade. and you all should have, too. if you didn't, then learn it now.

a lot.

it is not "alot."

it is "a-space-lot."

two words.

and that is the end of today's lesson.

you are welcome.

what a glorious lesson. now everyone knows, and there can be no excuse for messing up on that point. now, the next matter of business--deciding what kind of punishment should be affixed to breaking this important grammar rule. is caning too severe?

speaking of caning, do you remember when that caning story was all channel 1 covered, for like 8 months back in the early 90's? i remember i was in junior high, only half listening, and taking in all those crystal pepsi ads...right here, right noww, there is no other place i'd rather beeeee

we never had channel one. i guess i went to school in the ghetto? but i do remember the caning incident. wasn't it in thailand or something? the caning of an american in another country. big news. idiot. you don't break the laws of other countries and expect to be treated as though you are an american in america.

where am i going with this? nowhere, apparently...
