What an interesting thread. A contributor gets lambasted for being a little too vigilant of a grammer enforcer and then some of those very same people launch into a tirade over an innocent statement like, "Have a beer" Yes, we all have our peeves and who knows why one thing bothers us so much and another doesn't. I think maybe we all need a beer (just one), except possibly Jen. I loved her post.

Cheers, Harry

What an interesting thread.

Yeah, come to think of it.. weird topic. lots of unusual twists and turns.

..amazing 'how way leads on to way' to coin a phrase.

We're just having fun... (or at least I am.)

Grapefruit and lime. One reason. Taste!

I haven't had one since then. Might have another now.

Back when I use to drink Coke--pre-1988--I preferred it with lime. Lime is good with so many things.

Hi Harry, this is "Jen".

Well, I love to get in contact with my female side, but the name is actually "Jens".
(It stems from Johannes, one of the guys who wrote down the new testament.)

And, by the way, I HATE beer (untipically for a German, I know). If it has to be alcohol, only on social events of course, I prefer a nice cocktail or long drink.

Adding another twist,

Jens

Jens,

I knew your advice was too good to be a woman's. Can I say that if I put a smilie after it?

Best, Harry

Wisely, I choose not to answer this one...
