Everyone has certain stories from their childhood that have become the "classics" of their lives. One of my favorites is when my brother Rasp was in the 5th grade or so. He was called on to conjugate "to think" into its past and past particple tenses. Rasp paused for a moment (or at least I imagine he did) and responded, "Think, Thank, Thunk." When you see the title of my new link section, you will now know why.
Sadly, his grammar has not improved much with age. I can say that. I wrote every paper he ever turned in. My wardrobe at the time was much better for my efforts.
