    Some helpful rules for better writing:

    1. Verbs HAS to agree with their subjects.

    2. Prepositions are not words to end sentences with.

    3. And don't start a sentence with a conjunction.

    4. It is wrong to ever split an infinitive.

    5. Avoid cliches like the plague. (They're old hat)

    6. Comparisons are as bad as clichs.

    7. Also, always avoid annoying alliteration.

    8. Be more or less specific.

    9. Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are (usually) unnecessary.

    10. Also too, never, ever use repetitive redundancies.

    11. No sentence fragments.

    12. Foreign words and phrases are not apropos.

    13. Do not be redundant; do not use more words than necessary; it's highly superfluous.

    14. One should NEVER generalize.

    15. Don't use no double negatives.

    16. One-word sentences? Eliminate.

    17. Analogies in writing are like feathers on a snake.

    18. The passive voice is to be ignored.

    19. Never use a big word when a diminutive one would suffice.

    20. Use words correctly, irregardless of how others use them.

    21. Eliminate quotations. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "I hate quotations. Tell me what you know."

    22. If you've heard it once, you've heard it a thousand times: Resist hyperbole; not one writer in a million can use it correctly.

    Hey AzN - I was doing a little research to try to understand a little more about your culture. I was intrigued to find out what your name means in English.

    AzN NvAzN:
    Happy, raging wino, incapable of pronouncing words in any controlled manner; he whose fleas must check into Betty Ford; one who blows dogs before he blows them up
    {ref. "Names and Their Origins" and "The Frugal Cambodian Gormet"}


    See also: AyHaaD Tu WrRkLaTe, which means:
    "drunk divorcee mother on heroin who turns tricks in motel parking lots and slurs latenight ramblings to her disillusioned children"

    I always find those things so interesting. So tell me, AzN, did they hit the mark? Sometimes these things lose a bit in the translation.

    Thats great Lomotil!
    I remember one of my lecturers giving us something like that. I always kicked myself for burning all my first year notes. I hope you don't mind but I'm pinching it.

    AzN NvAzN, I think your signature should read; 'Two wongs don't make a white".

    Just a suggestion.
