Beardy, I have a book recommendation for you

Posted by Dinah on July 16, 2002, at 10:27:31

If you enjoy grammar humor as much as my husband and I do, you might enjoy The Lexicon of Intentionally Ambiguous Recommendations by Robert Thornton.
I recommended it to Jane the other day. It features such creative inventions as the quomma.
It has been many years since we have read it, but my husband and I still quote it to each other all the time.
