Good story....except I dont see where Sandra deserves the Oscar....left me wondering if SJ got a cut of the signing bonus....good ending....just wondering if there will be a movie, a polar opposite movie, about a poor black family that kidnaps a rich white midget and forces him to become a horse jockey...that midget would be played by Nick Saban, he would be a raw talent at first, but once he learned the process of being a jockey, he takes the sport over....they would call it "The Short Side".....and he wins all 3 of the Triple Crowns, while riding bareback....

midget, horse, bareback ...

I’m pretty sure that movie’s already available. Wait. What?

Posts like this

are why MPP is our poet laureate and as such is afforded an excuse to use as many ellipses as he damn well pleases. Don’t the rest of you get any ideas, now.

I appreciate the pass on grammar.

Truth be told, I am just too damn lazy to proof read anything I write on the web…the eclipses are for dramatic pauses, you know, if I were live saying this, gives me time for the laughter to die down. I’ll be here all week. Try the veal.

If Auburn wants to follow Nick Sabans script, they must go undefeated this year in the SEC...and do it again next year, AND win the BCS....good luck with that.....

as long as it has better readability than an ee cummings poem...

…i am all for poetic licence and overuse of the ellipse… ellipses and commas… sometimes i throw them in a sentence when they aren’t even necessary, just because i want the reader to pause, in… certain, and specific, spots…

In all honesty, I felt the guy portraying Michael

played a better part. He cried more than Sandra did. And I cried more than both of them. There. I said it.
I have caught myself driving thru poor neighborhoods——-that weren’t on the way home.
