Nerd Deluxe

I already knew I was a nerd. This is not news. But last night I had a dream that I believe elevated my status. I was playing a board game called Grammar Deluxe. That's right...this was not just the plain old version of the classic Grammar game. It was the deluxe game!

Of course, now that I'm awake, I'm trying to flesh out the game because I actually am dying to play it. Mark says it's my million dollar idea. I'm not so sure about that, but I kinda could see the game being available on ThinkGeek or some such spot. Hmmmm...maybe a copyright is in order.

Until then, this is the Nerd Deluxe signing off.

Idiots, dear idiots, how you entertain me

Just ran across today's hysterical idiot moment. I am endlessly entertained (and annoyed) by people that get words and grammar wrong, especially when they are trying very hard to look smart. Just stick to the small words, people.

The word for today is rampid. According to the writer, the flu was running rampid in her school. I guess that means it was going on unchecked and doing it really, really fast!
