I've been surfing blogs again and I've come up with a way to improve this site. You know up at the top of each post there's a button which allows you to "flag this entry as inappropriate?" Well, I'm thinkin' there should be an assortment: one that says "flag this entry as moronic;" another, perhaps, that says "flag this entry as painfully illiterate."
Such flags would serve to warn off those of us who care from polluting our sensibilities.
Just last night I read one I'd have flagged in oh, so many ways. It was long-winded (I perservered!), rife with teeth-grinding spelling and grammatical errors (Yes, it's true! I am a spelling-Nazi! Okay, there! I've said it!!), and the kicker? It was written by a TEACHER!! Someone who is molding the minds of our young!!!! I was horrified!! I suppose this solves the mystery of why the English language is swirling the bowl. But I digress....
Some other buttons I'd like to see:
- "flag this entry as well-written and witty"
- "flag this entry as toxic waste"
- "FLAG the bejeezus out of this entry before someone gets hurt!"
Or how about "flag this entry as being the result of a face-plant on a keyboard?"
Just a thought (dot com)....

Fantastic - you've got it right! Amazing what fresh eyes will bring.
I best copyright the "Long-winded" blog entry button .... I think I do this too often! I love your sharp, short & snappy ones!
