A Turkey By Any Other Name…
Happy Thanksgiving Weekend from Canada! Have you ever placed an exclamation mark at the end of a sentence and then pondered whether you really mean to be exclamatory? I do this ALL the time! There are some instances where I just move that cursor on back and delete it and there are times when I … Continue reading A Turkey By Any Other Name…
May I have your assistance please?
