give me a 'M'

I didn't want to ruin your fun and put a damper on these festivities, but I just can't let that lapse of grammar pass. It should be "Give me AN 'M'". Do I really need to remind you about the benefits of good grammar?

Okay, I guess I better give everyone a refresher course. These are the things that all our grade school teachers and especially our parents tried to drill through our heads. They just didn't have the right way to do it, so using the magical powers of the internet, I will lay it all out for you again.

1) Grammar is spelt with an 'a' not an 'e'. Grammer is the last name of that guy on Frasier. Grammar is the stuff we're talking about here.

2) Grammar is not something to moan and groan about. Grammar is your friend. Okay, not the friend you would have chosen, but the one your parents would have picked. And paid.

3) If you know proper grammar, you can win the heart of any boy or girl. Because it's in our genes, we're all suckers for some sweet talker with good grammar.

4) Grammar is an art and a science. I mean grammar is important in both art and science. And English, math, even woodshop.

5) Using good grammar is the only time when everyone is equal. We all start out with the same rules and guidelines, and then it's up to us individually to make poetry with what we've got.

And if the 5 point above weren't good enough:

6) Grammar makes our word processors and spell checkers happy. We all want that, don't we? Don't we all just start to cry when we see those wiggly green lines and know how much we hurt that paperclip.

So quickly back to where we started. "Give me an 'M'. Okay, but what are you gonna do with it? When am I gonna get it back? How long am I gonna have to go by the name Atte?
