Rhys: I work in publishing, and I have no idea what a “brad” is. I’ve also consulted two dictionaries and google. Please tell me I’m not the only clueless one! If he’d written “Brads” rather than “brads,” I’d have guessed he meant the author could recycle the character’s name so the manuscript wouldn’t be a complete loss. Since he did not, I’m as stumped as Rhys (while also, in fact, working in publishing) -Bill

I don’t know why, but Dali Lama humor always cracks me up. The joke where he calls the pizzeria and says “Make me one with everything”… The birthday card where you see him opening a gift box and he says “Just what I always wanted! Nothing!” Maybe I’m just easy to amuse. Nicole:

Yes, I know that “people that” is very common, especially in the midwest… but it bugs the hell out of me and one of the perks of being an editor is that I get to change it. The Official Bill Bickel Style Guide.This is not a CIDU of course.
