Now, back to the universe thingy: Everything except us is standing still, we are just moving backwards really, really fast.

Creative guess, wrong nevertheless. Everything is receding from our viewpoint because we are the malodorous, wormy rectum of the universe.

Yes, I have trouble with "existence." Sometimes I even use the wrong "your." Finding the latter too late makes me suicidal for a few minutes.

But there's something about misspelling a subject you're thumping your chest about having passed in High School. Did you look at the book? Did the teacher write it on the board the first day of class? What does it mean, anyway, to have passed a course in High School where notoriously you pass if you don't get arrested?

It means that you DON'T have a set of mugs shots in book at the police station.... In some parts of America, that is considered an intellectual achievement. Welcome to the egalitarian educational paradise.

It means a lot more work for me once these illiterates get into my classes.
