Tim,

I'm glad to hear that you are going to be going to college soon, perhaps it will improve upon some basic skills that you should have already acquired. Your two most recent messages (in addition to many in the past) contain an unbelievable amount of typos (can I even call them that?), misspelled words, and totally unreadable text. Now I don't expect you to write perfectly, nor do I expect you to care TOO much about how you write in a post, but do you even make an effort? You come across as a 7th grade special ed. student on this board, regardless of any intelligent content your posts have. How you present yourself is half as important as what you say. I mean, if you don't have the grammar skills you could even write what you want to say in a word processor and then have it check your mistakes.

Good luck to you at college, but be warned: they actually expect you to be able to read and write there.

~~
