Food has nothing to do with it, people. <BR/><BR/>Desert (d-zûrt)n. 1. Something that is deserved or merited, especially a punishment.<BR/><BR/>The only time I ever saw "Just Desserts" and it was correct, was in TIME magazine once, and it was a play on words because they were talking about diet.Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01535208430105317052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29570218.post-87964807903062800172008-11-07T10:13:00.000-07:002008-11-07T10:13:00.000-07:00I just read a political blog where the person wrot...I just read a political blog where the person wrote "Irregardless" ouch. Also I don't like "anyways", you don't like further and farther mistakes. We got a postcard in the mail for a city wide party that said it was going to be the "funnest" night. I couldn't go after that. Just remember to live "positive".

Sorry about that. <BR/><BR/>I don't really know who Robert Burns is, although as I was guessing, I thought he did something literary, and I just looked him up and I was kind of right. My knowledge wouldn't have won me a game show though. <BR/><BR/>Also, nice work on your fancy blog page. I'm holding out on my old school one until I get married. Then I can be more scrap-bookish.Myriah Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00594734288826905735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29570218.post-61695340365654691532008-11-06T13:44:00.000-07:002008-11-06T13:44:00.000-07:00Kudos on correcting people on tv.
