[…] I didn’t know I would ramble on so much when I started this post! Time now to go unatrophy my brain with some choice words well knit into a tale (I had written tail instead. Damn these homonyms! MJY, I feel your pain!) so mesmerizing. […]

So the comma is your only problem. Well I don’t even know the difference between all the various punctuation marks (don’t get me started on semi-colon and colon).

All I remember from English class, you put a coma to rest/breathe. A full stop to sleep.

your post reminds me of a former very big shot in the late 70,s 80’s 90’s and slightly into the millenium. (its not a joke)new into the job and reading from the script, he came to the end of a sentence which i believe did not have the proper “hey you are at the end of a sentence” punctuations and never stopped. problem was, the next sentence wasn’t “read”,it was “action”…. “Pause for Applause”

While in school, I asked my teachers for any rules in the English language for proper placing of commas but no one ever gave me a proper answer. I guess they never knew it, also since the placing of commas within German language changed with some reforms we had over here during the last 10 years.

About speaking very quickly: this is what ppl hate the most about me – I talk as fast as my mum and I guess that’s the unavoidable heritage. While in school, a friend of mine used to “translate” these utterances like “What JKE is trying to say is, that….”…

Now it is clear to me why you talked as if you were on a marathon. You must have hated it when some of your aunties (WE ARE NOT DECLARING WAR TODAY) told you to take a deep breathe and then talk slowly. I always felt out of breath when you were talking.

Where did you get that society? (Mine is that I am forgetting how to spell – again AMANI)
