A Lesson In Punctuation

~

A woman without her, man, is! … nothing.
… no word nor invocation need license.
A woman within her is, too.

Maybe as an engineer I'm missing the point.

An English professor might be able to write well but they'll never be able to afford a corvette.

I don't believe flashing a few correctly punctuated sentences is going to get him any quality pussy either, but who knows?

I was always taught English is good, but engineering is gooder.

English is a language you will only come close to mastering before you die.

How disappointing it must be to have a masters degree in English and write a paper that only 10% of people will know if the syntax is correct and less than 5% will know if it's punctuated correctly or not. Even then, there's room for ambiguity.

Don't think too hard on what I write. It's of little value and in an hour it will all be forgotten.

    I think the finesse of punctuation has gone by the wayside.

As Johnny Mercer once wrote:

You got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
E-lim-i-nate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-between

If only, we could
punctuate
people's thoughts.

Many fellows would not read it as it punctuated in the 2nd example. They simply would read the words.

Punctuation is powerful!
