The number one thing that drives me bananas is when I send an email with three questions and only the first one is answered.

Glou - I have found that listing the questions in numbered bullet forms helps. It's not perfect but it helps. Oftentimes, at least at my org, they will answer after the question!

To clarify -

1. Question?

2. Question? et al

Well in college I was a journalism major...learned it doesnt matter either way if you use the comma before and...I myself don't like to.

So actually red, white and blue is right as well as red, white, and blue.

If you will go back and re-read my original post, I put, "I think the second option is technically correct but I don't like it, dangit!" So, hi hello, I have already conceded the point.

Tapshoes - good damn point!!!

I love it - I am SO glad that I am not the only anal-retentive person on this site. Grammatical and spelling errors drive me NUTS! :lol:

I even catch typos in printed books... I think it's a sickness. Although, I am a comma freak, I LOVE commas and I totally overuse them. :biggrin:

It takes a lot of trees (some of them with missing branches) to make a beautiful forest, right?

LOL! Me, too. I correct the television all the time. Not just the talk shows -- there's one drama in particular that I'm considering offering to proof their scripts before they go into production!

Gadget - My latest obsession is a Dodge radio commercial where one can "go further on a tank of gas." I always yell, "FARTHER!" You can't mention "one drama in particular" and not tell us which one!

Kellster - I do as well! I take a pencil and circle it. (I wouldn't dare use a pen. That seems almost sacrilegious.)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
