An English Professor wrote these words:
"A woman without her man is nothing"
on the blackboard and then asked the students to punctuate it correctly.
All of the males in the class wrote:
"A woman, without her man, is nothing."
All of the females in the class wrote"
"A woman: without her, man is nothing."
PUNCTUATION IS POWERFUL.
I do like grammar, even if I'm not every good at it and have a strange love of ellipses.
