Mrs. Graham, Where Are You?

Mrs. Graham was probably the world's best English grammar teacher. Her husband, Bob, was my middle school football coach. I learned all manner of good things from her. He taught me that football coaches are mostly bluster, especially when they can't put together a winning team. (He also taught me to never turn your back on a frustrated coach or you might get kicked in the back.)

If, like me, you can't remember what your 7th grade grammar teacher taught you about dangling participles or something equally arcane, check grammarerrors.com.

It's the next best thing to reading your old grammar textbook.
