I'm not certain how I came to be one of the Ladies. But that's OK, I guess. If you can't beat'em, join'em.

1. Jason sed he wanted to crack open a cold one and "watch the ladies" wrestle. Since we were all in a dogpile, I was using *sarcasm* to get his attention that this was not a 1 am event at Hooters.

2. As to the second part of your post - sounds like the woman in your life has trained you well. High five from me to her.

Actually, he was already pretty awesome when I got him. I can't take credit for his awesomeness. I am, however, proud to admit he's mine.

I'm going to refrain from answering the above question. I don't want anything used against me in a court of law. :uhyeah:

Not to take away from anybody's fun, I think we should split the grammar/spelling and Pigpile. I still think it has a use.... TW

Okay, folks. While Raedyn gets a lap dance from her main squeeze, let's have a spelling and grammar tip of the day.

Let's start with these: there, they're and their.

Spelling tip: They all start with "the". The possessive 'their' is a exception to the 'I before E' rule we are all familiar with.

Usage tips:

There - answers the question "Where?" which is also answered by "Here" which is in both words: T-here and W-here.

Example: Dan is over there giving Raedyn a lap dance.


They're - is a contraction of 'they are'. Ask yourself if you could substitute the phrase 'they are' for the 'they're' you are trying to use and if you can and have the same meaning, then you can contract and use 'they're'. If not, it must be one of the others.

Example: When the club closes, they're (they are) going to the beach.


Their - possessive and answers the question "whose". I always just memorized the spelling of 'their' and if the above tests failed, this one was the only one left.

Example: All MT members can post in the forums, but the women have the Ladies Locker Room which is only theirs.

WAAAHOOOO! Something to do while Dan continues the never-ending lapdance for Raedyn. They're still busy over there getting their groove on.
