I hear the first from the people I work with - always makes me wonder what they are saying other times. And the second, I heard way too many times from the commentators during the NCAA women's basketball games.

Oh, oh, and I've heard several people on TV say "functionable"--so, what, functional isn't good enough?

Yes indeed. Using Maverick in the context of the recent presidential election was just plain wrong. James Garner is Maverick and is the legend of the west.<br />Thanks for an entertaining and wise post.Gail Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16782293471969747699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-31318671575941739232010-04-05T10:12:20.456-04:002010-04-05T10:12:20.456-04:00No one should be allowed to use the phrase "I...No one should be allowed to use the phrase "If I've offended...," in an apology.Janetnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-51890209082196691342010-04-05T09:59:47.442-04:002010-04-05T09:59:47.442-04:00I think we have to allow the use of "Maverick...I think we have to allow the use of "Maverick" when referencing Tom Cruise and TOP GUN.Laura DiSilveriohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15948548540796537864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-73547833073192503712010-04-05T08:00:44.315-04:002010-04-05T08:00:44.315-04:00I've had enough of "at the end of the day...I've had enough of "at the end of the day,"Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088754734378348761noreply@blogger.com
