Editorial Gems for a New Week

Last week at work, I was roundly criticized by a representative from another office for the number of administrative errors (misspellings, punctuation, incorrect references, etc) in a document I had circulated for comment. This individual documented the errors in what we call a "comment resolution matrix" ... which was noteworthy for the number of administrative errors it contained. Sigh.

It looks like it's going to be a long week, so let's get started with another collection of editorial gems ...

We often criticize our police, but they are usually brave and trustworthy public servants who can provide not only protection from evildoers, but also sound advice ...

They also field some ... unusual ... complaints ...

The science of crime detection and solution continues to advance ... but I'm not sure it's something I really want to get into ...

Sounds like some more of that Republican science to me ...

Well, here's one way to get all that unsold stock moving ...

 And people say that Americans don't know much about geography ...

When you need to know how many degrees it is until dinner time ...

It may have something to do with the prevailing political conditions ...

How about a nice glass of cheese? ...

And finally, another unfortunate juxtaposition of photo and unrelated story ...

And so it goes as we step boldly into the last week of August. It's hard to believe that this coming weekend is already the Labor Day holiday weekend ... it seems like only yesterday that it was only yesterday. Time flies.

Have a good day. Write good. More thoughts tomorrow.
