And just in case you are teaching grammar and punctuation today in school, please excuse the apostrophe on brotherssince the noun is not possessive in that sentence. LOL!

LOL!! You know, I am pretty critical when READING written stuff - especially written by others. My Grandma is an excellenct grammaticist (is that really a word?) and she imparted some quirks to me. For example, I hate it when someone says 'More importantly....' It should be "More important...." One of my (many) pet peeves! But online, I just go with the flow - God knows I make a ton of mistakes myself!!

(i.e. get the plank outta your eye before you get the speck outta the eye of your brother! LOL!!)
