The Reactionary Blogger: Reacting to Footnote Accusation.
written by Julie R. Neidlinger 6 comments link this postMark, I1 have2 long had3 a thing4 for footnotes*; it's no secret5.
Footnotes
1There is too much "I" in my writing, but I (oops) have difficulty in finding other ways to refer to myself without using the the rather rude and inaccurate method of "you" as a general reference to people. So, I (ack) use "I."
2A fine present-tense expression of ownership2B.
3The past tense version of footnote number 2.
4 The Thing is one of John Carpenter's better films, in my opinion.
5Despite it's premium price tag, Secret is not the best deodorant. Suave, which has a lower price-point, works just as well.
Footnote Footnotes
2BThis could possibly lead to a discussion on the reality of ownership. Do we own anything, really? Can living beings2B-B with limited living potential "own" anything?
Um....
2B-B By living beings, I'm meaning humans.

Good morning Julie! I was thinking that it was more of a footnote observation rather than an accusation, but it is fun to be acknowledged. Speaking of footnotes..they made a movie about the famous painter who painted with his feet, does anybody play the piano with his or her feet? A true foot note.

"Suave does what theirs does for less than half the price."

Funny,* Julie.** You will post on just about anything, won't you?***
*By funny, I mean more than mildly humorous here****, not laugh out loud hilarious.
**I have no idea if I can even put superscript numbers in for footnotes in a comment, let alone how to actually do so. So, asterisks it is.
***Just a rhetorical question. I think we all know the answer to it already, don't we?*****
****i.e., it made me smile, and that is more than wonderful for me today.
*****Yet another rhetorical question that needs no answer, and yet if I know you, you will almost certainly have one.
