I learned some grammar in school, but more from reading and from hanging with my old man. The only crime that compared to mishandling a gun in that house was poor writing. Gawd, he is a maniac for that stuff. I was fortunate enough to go to the same prep school he did and even had some of the same teachers he had. You don't get out of that school without knowing how to read and write. So I know where he got it. You ought to see him wince when he hears someone on tv say "less" when "fewer" is warranted. You'd have thought someone had just tossed a brick through the window.

Are we related?
