Fred,

That certainly is a doozy! I learned just the basics of grammar in public grade school. When I was in 9th grade, on the newspaper editorial staff, the teacher was shocked at how bad everyone's grammar and sentence structuring was. (Now, did I put the apostrophe in the correct place there?) He took the whole month of September to teach us sentence structure by making us diagram sentences with rulers and pens! (Just like my girlfriend had to do in Catholic grade school.) It really helped me understand sentence structure much better, but I still have lots of grammar pitfalls.

I still don't know if I am bringing my luggage on a cruise, or taking my luggage on a cruise!
