On the topic of grammar and everything else linguistic, I absolutely hate it.  I'm currently taking my DMASc program and I need to take English and Writing Grammatically.  My writing style is fine; I'm a competent author.  Having to learn about the different adverb clauses and sentence Subject Verb Verb, blah blah, and other witchcraft is just absolutely frustrating.

Get used to it, learn it and master it.  These are the keys to effective communication, which is an important element of leadership.  Otherwise, you will become the bear that eats, shoots and leaves....

You ever try and keep a bear?

Bear do what bear wants to. And with whatever grammar he chooses. ;D

Bears already have arms.  I also know some people who exercise their right to bear arms - perhaps they should shave them and cut their nails ;D.

And the spell check didn't even catch most of those terms, right?

That's correct. But, I did miss a word ... I intended it to read:

Awl ewe fellowes knead too no howe two right write sew ewe kin urn sum d'oh.
