Fantasy with my Boss

I joined a fantasy baseball league, in which one of my bosses participates. I have to admit, I lost a little respect when I saw that his team name is spelled in all caps (and not something like THE LOCKED CAPS).

However, I regained that respect, plus a little more, when he informed me that I had the steal of the draft.

(Course with money on the line, he may just be playing head games with me. He is a lawyer after all.)

Stupid

I just wrote up a thing and sent it off to my boss. Before sending it off, I did the whole word spell check thing, and was a bit disappointed in my grade level on the readability statistics. It came back as grade 17.2.

That's total crap. Counting kindergarten, I have had 20 grades. Plus, the whole studying for the bar exam should count as a grade because I had never studied that hard for prior 20 grades. So I should at least be topping out around 21 grade level. And because I tend to think I am above average, I should be getting 22 to 23.

But no, I am just an underacheiving dumbass. Though I guess it doesn't matter much, the whole thing will be rewritten by another anyway (then we shall see how the grade level comes out). So why try right?

A tip

Don't buy plane tickets when its a friday afternoon, you just want to leave work, are tired, are spending the afternoon toggling between tabs to keep up with the NCAA games and deapsin's live blogs, and oh yeah, actually trying to get some work done (i.e. Reading boring old cases). Because that ticket you just bought might be unrefundable, and though you got a good deal, its tough to get from dc to chicago when your roundtrip flight starts off by leaving from o'hare.

Yup, that's a terrible idea.

I am reading this book, and the author keeps saying "an historian"

I am no grammar expert, but it should be "a historian." you see, if it was "an istorian" I would have no problem. But you say the "h" in historian, so it should be "a" not "an". It is very distracting.

Stupid early '90s grammar rules.
