You count very well! Good for you!

Thanks. I hope it doesn't go into double digits. I can't count past 9.

What private school do your parents want you to go to when you enter Pre-K?

There's a guy who has one of the highest IQs and he works in construction. He says he grew up in an environment that didn't encourage academics but he's happy being a blue collar worker.

One where math skills don't matter. After all, I'm going to be a lawyer. My secretary or accountant will take care of anything past 9.

Those who think about it the most are the ones who DON'T get it enough.

People who have good sex on a regular basis don't count pages on a Net forum, unless they are bean counters. Bean counters, because of their repulsive personalities, don't have good sex on a regular basis, except when they pay for it. Bean counters resent paying for anything.

Good plan, but how will you get through law school without math skills??

I'll start.

Here is a place.
Hear is what you do with your ears.

It's y'all, not ya'll. The proper use of an apostrophe in a contraction is to replace the missing letters (in this case the o and the u).

It's lose weight, not loose weight.

Quite is used for emphasis.
Quiet is what you want your vacation beach to be (in fairness, this one may have been a typo).

Its is the possessive form of it. It's is a contraction of it is.

Writing alot is like writing thetree. It's a lot.

Please join in below with the ones that are driving you crazy.

alot? No, it's a lot.

If the prounouns are the objects of a preposition (here the prepositional phrase starts with the word between), then you use the object prounoun (me, you, him/her, etc). He and I are subject pronouns. The worst, of course, is to say him and myself-this makes you look like a raging moron.

The dreaded Tax course which is mandatory in most law schools. Securities Regulations. Family Law. Property Law. Contracts. Torts. Insurance Law. Wills and Estates. ............

Last summer I was going to get some ice cream after lunch and my co-worker, a really nice older man, said, "There's some Napoleon leftover in the fridge." I thought I was the only one who thought it was Napoleon.
