I am so ashamed.

I just looked closely at my last entry. It contains within it a grievous grammatical error. If I had just made the entry hours ago I would edit it, but now it's been days; anyone could have read it and thought me grammatically inept. Typos I can stand, but this... this is unacceptable.

To every English teacher I ever had, I apologize wholeheartedly.

I only found one split infinitive, one "your" and one colloquialism. Shit! I've just split my own infinitive! Forget the English teachers - language is an organic construct that develops with common usage (and transAtlantic migration). I'd be much more concerned if you had misspelt colour, favour, centre, theatre......
