Grammatically speaking, periods and commas generally go before the closing quote mark.

Just a little humor; didn't mean anything more. No offense meant; apologize if any taken.

You think he was quoting someone? Do you think maybe he was using the quotation marks in place of italicizing the text. Is this acceptable?

Knew it wasn't a quote. I've used quote marks in this way, too, but have always thought the rule about putting punctuation within quotes still applied (even if I've broken it), but perhaps I'm off.

I didn't see any examples, following your link, that would have clarified it for me.

It's probably because I see repeated spelling errors just a tad differently than a punctuation error.

Umm, wow. Probably not the best time to jump right in here with that little pearl of wisdom. No doubt I have made (and will continue to make) grammatical and spelling errors - but if I can help it, I avoid it (unlike Gary). I have been correcting Gary because his apathetic, disrespectful, arrogant attitude coupled with his horrific use of the English language is pretty annoying. And I'm trying to get my post-count up too. Uh oh, I started a sentence with "And". Uh oh, I did the quotes wrong again.

Mangyrat has asked to be removed from the rotation for a bit. I'll step up in his place. I think the below is accurate, but correct me if I'm wrong.

Send a PM to badwhale -- not a BM, a PM -- he's been a bit ornery as of late. ACTUALLY -- I just saw you're from north of the border -- I don't know who you should contact -- I seem to recall there was a little more thought required for who you get paired up with -- try drew_goring, I'm sure he can point you in the right direction.

In other news, Hannibal's end arrived today, and his package should fly the same day I receive my Bumboochas.

Received Drew's end today. All I have to say is I owe you Drew. I recognize the names of many of the cigars included as ones that everyone here raves about. I know these are worth far more than I paid and I am very grateful. Thanks again Drew!

Glad to hear you are satisfied Mark. I don't send cigars to people that I don't enjoy smoking myself.

Just walked in the door and found a package on my front doorstep. Just fantastic, Will. I was not sure what to expect but your sampler simply blew me away!! The variety is insane and will be a lot of fun to compare. Mind if I PM questions about some of the sticks from time to time?

Thank you from a very grateful newbie!

You're welcome, and sure, shoot me a PM whenever you have a question.
