Perhaps the inflection I intended when I wrote this didn't come through in the text. I do, however, appreciate your rigidity when it comes to english grammer.

Westminster | MD | USA | Posted: 7:54 AM on 05.11.06 |
->> Oh Jason, you shouldn't put words in people's mouth 'cause I'm not rigid with grammar. I enjoy playful and creative uses of the English language.
But then I do appreciate your appreciation none the less. Better than no appreciated at all. Know's what I mean homie?
It's just that "Where you at" is like chalk on the blackboard to me. I hear nothing creative is its application, just the same old tired poor use of our beautiful language.
I can laugh at stuff like this.
