Meh!!

"Available" used to be my bête noire. Now it's "visit". You get that all the time with ads that include a website.

It's not really a "can't say" for me, but why do knucklehead radio station AEs always include the phrase "located at" in the copy they write. It is almost always unnecessary.

Yes! "Come to our store - inconveniently located, but we have really good stuff"

My little nightmare is "rear view mirror" - I suddenly turned into Elmer Fudd -
"we-oh vee-oh mewoo"

"be vewy vewy quiet - weoh hunting wabbits"...

I thought there was something I needed to learn about breath support as there was something I couldn't manage today. As it turned out the only thing I needed to know was that a sentence without comas or other punctuation should not contain 34 words most consisting of multi-syllables.

Usual laissez-faire approach somewhat over shadowed this week by an attack of the black death/pubonic plague/sore throat and near terminal dandruff with plaque acid bacterial complications.
