/\ Aha! that made me lol. Right there with you. To this day I'm uncomfortable sleeping with my cranium exposed for fear of having my brain eaten during the night.
The crematorium scene with James Karen also gave me wonderful nightmares!
I installed Windows 7 x64 on friday and IE8 has already caused a complete hang of the system and periodically the browser freezes while trying to download a page, meaning I cant click another tab while I'm waiting, and I seem to have to wait a long time for pages. Time to reinstall firefox.
Hey thanks, that kinda makes sense to me! Whod a thunk it!
In reply to this comment by EmptyFriend: yeah, should be MSNBC's. you only put the apostrophe after the S if you wanted to say it was both plural and possessive (eg "all 12 employees' cars were stolen"), so unless there are multiple stations named MSNBC...
grammar aside, can't blame her too much for reading her teleprompter, but i guess she should have corrected herself a little faster. seems like by the time he started talking, her brain was probably 3 steps ahead of her getting ready for the back-and-forth with him.
can't tell from the clip, but he didn't really look that offended or anything, i mean its not like she called him some offensive name or something.
BTW I seem to have a mental block concerning the correct use of apostrophes so I'm getting out there and using them more, here is my basis for using "MSNBCs' Contessa" (The AP use "MSNBC's Contessa", I udnerstand both are correct?):
1. When items are described by an acronym or an abbreviation, there is no need to add an apostrophe to denote the plural:
MP (military police) sixteen MPs
PC (personal computer) a network of PCs
MB (megabyte) 100 MB
2. But the apostrophe should be used in any expression which includes an element of possession:
My mother told me a story, when she was about 20, circa 1960, her and her sister would have to walk home from work past a building site and all the lads would whistle and cat call etc. So they mentioned this at home and my grandmother had a word with the foreman.
Next day, as they walked past the site, 40 or 50 guys were all positioned on the scaffolding waiting to sing "I'll tell my ma, when I go home....". My mam said they had a hard time keeping a straight face until they were out of sight!
I always think of that story when I hear that song
