So, back in March (seven months ago; I'll save you the math) I brought a couple of new family members into my home - Auralia and Blanquita. Rescued goldfish from the feeder tank, as some of you might remember, and Blanquita didn't last the first 48 hours before she went off to fish heaven. She was quickly replaced (after a suitable mourning period, but before Auralia could get too lonely) with Platita, and the two of them have lived healthy, ostensibly happy lives on the windowsill in my bathroom since then. Until tonight. Fed them this afternoon, as always, and they seemed their usual frisky selves. Cleaned the bowl a couple of days ago, like I do every week (it's a smallish bowl) and neither added nor subtracted anything....

Additional information may be needed to clarify. I would start with 'this past July' to avoid any doubt. In some contexts, 'last July' would be enough to indicate July of 2009.

There is supposed to be a comma after the year there. That is the rule. To advise somebody use the European method,13 August 2002, like is done in Europe, so you don't have to mess with commas, is disturbing and lazy. What is this, the politically correct way to punctuate? Let's be like the Europeans -NOT. I hope this person went to another source for help. Anon, it's not "the rule." It's the guide under the style you have been taught. I have been taught the same way, and it's the style that *I* follow, but that doesn't make it the only way to do it, and it doesn't make it a rule. There is a trend toward globalization, in case you haven't noticed, and being adaptable to other styles...

People say "On or about 01 April" when they are unsure the exact date.. So, do we say "On or about April", or, "In or about April"? I used to say "In or about April", but somebody said we should say "On or about April" beucase "on or about" itself is a term and we cannot change it to "in or about". However, I saw a solicitor wrote "in or about April" before, so which one is correct? Thx.

Why don't more films impart useful information while being funny and entertaining, like "Couples Retreat"? This is what movies *should* be. Movies *should* try to sell messages like this, instead of the nonstop immoral, relativistic, wrong-is- right, bad-is-good, solve-problems-by-killing-people downer garbage we're usually forcefed. And it doesn't hurt at all to have Jason Bateman, Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn together onscreen. But even though it was seriously misrated (a PG-13 showing a full erection, nudity and tantric sex poses?) and definitely not a date movie, it was 100% pro-monogamy, and all about showing love and respect to your spouse and fighting for your marriage. Standing ovation to Vaughn and Favreau,...
