Since I was a wee lad, knee high to a short grasshopper as it were, I loved reading. I'd read anything from Sunday comics in the newspapers to those Archie comics and Dennis the menace. As I grew older, I enjoyed Readers Digest, Hardy Boys, various westerns, and by the time I was about 11 or 12 I'd already read most of the published Robert Ludlum books (that's the chappie who wrote the Bourne books). In high school, I discovered a whole library of old classics, poetry, and Shakespeare.
So, I grew up with good literature, and better than that, I grew up with fine English as a guide, a way of speaking and writing.
So it PISSES me off to no end when people send me emails or phone texts with poor grammar, bad spelling, short cut letters instead of words and generally displaying the intellect of a donkey's hind end. It shows laziness, ill manners and generally the attitude of a person unwilling to progress.
So, y'all take the hint...
