Punctuated English by SamMilla1(m): 1:02am On Apr 12, 2008 |
Okay, if you think all is well with the shorthand spellings and careless punctuations we do these days, wait until you hear this. Johnny met this babe and after a dinner decided to write her a love note. He asked help from his linguistic friend, who promptly sent him the following draft: _____________________ My Dear Pat, The dinner we shared the other night – it was absolutely lovely! Not in my wildest dreams could I ever imagine anyone as perfect as you are. Could you – even if only for a moment – think of our being together forever? What a cruel joke to have you come into my life only to leave again; it would be heaven denied. The possibility of seeing you again makes me giddy with joy. I face the time we are apart with great sadness. John. P.S.: I would like to tell you that I love you. I can’t stop thinking that you are one of the prettiest women on earth. _____________________ Okay, Johnny got down to business and copied the draft in his own handwriting. The finished product? See for yourself: _____________________ My Dear Pat the dinner we shared the other night. It was absolutely lovely – not! In my wildest dreams, could I ever imagine anyone? As perfect as you are, could you – if only for a moment – think? Of our being together forever: what a cruel joke! To have you come into my life only to leave again: it would be heaven! Denied the possibility of seeing you again makes me giddy. With joy I face the time we are apart. With great ‘sadness,’ John P.S.: I would like to tell you that I love you. I can’t. Stop thinking that you are one of the prettiest women on earth. ____________________ What happened next? Your guess! |
