Be weary of strangers. This warning is probably a mute point.

Actually ... guitaring is more importanter.

Another speech that I like; "Wow, 4 years ago I couldn't even spell mechanical engineer and now I is one!"

Shouldn't the title be: "How to write well." "Good" is generally considered an adjective for a noun, while "well" would be used as an adverb to modify the verb write. It seems ironic that this is the title for writing tips - from an old country boy.

Yes, a dangling participle is something up with which I will not put.
