Just as a courtesy to everyone else...

Can everyone try and use some puncuations in your posts...sheesh! Punctuations are things like periods and commas to help break up sentences. Some of the posts I've been reading lately make my head hurt...I'm not a big fan of run on sentences. Here is an example:

Sometimes when i go to the track i run fast the last time i was there i was racing a mustang and i blew his freakin doors off the guy came up to me after and asked what i had in the car

The way it should have been was:

Sometimes when I go to the track, I run fast. The last time I was there, I was racing a mustang and I blew his freakin doors off! The guy came up to me after and asked what i had in the car.

Note the periods, commas and caps in the right places? Come on...you guys all went to high school.

Punctuation does seem to be a problem all over the internet.

Joey, you can't get too mad though...a lot of people on the internet aren't extremely educated or care to be

At least you are leading by example and using a complete sentence. I would recommend an exclamation point in the future to empathize how much you think they suck.

Um, 'punctuation' is both singular and plural.

Hey Joe, would you be interested in an autotragic? There's an '01 silverthorn for sale here local for $7700 I believe. I could get more detail if you're interested.
