One person's commentary on how sloppy people have become with the spoken and written word. It all started with one commercial having glaringly bad grammar. I thought I would run out of material if I posted weekly. I was wrong. There are advertisers that need to go to grammar school.

Golden Grammar - Money can't buy you good grammar
There are times when some people don't know what word to end a sentence with. I'll give you a hint as to what type of word should not conclude a sentence: a preposition. Watching actors get paid for a commercial, and probably script-writers writing those words. If you are Rosland Capital investing using William Devane as your spokesperson the words that come out of his mouth should be 'golden.' We have dumbed-down our language so much that this misspoken sentence flew under the radar: "Protect what you worked so hard for." Protect your money and protect your reputation, you have worked too hard for both of them.
