I'm an Independent Spirit!

This note starts off friendly, then gets a bit weird and then all out demanding. I would never expect this from an "Independent Spirit" kitty. Submitted by Karen T.

Well, I'm impressed that this cat has its own computer and color printer.

The Grammar Police

The exclamation point is a punctuation mark usually used after an interjection or exclamation to indicate strong feelings or high volume (shouting), and often marks the end of a sentence. Example, "Watch Out!" A Sentence ending in an exclamation mark is an actual exclamation ("Wow!", "Boo!"), the imperative mood ("Stop!"), or intended to be astonishing or show astonishment ("They were the footprints of a gigantic hound!). Overly frequent use of the exclamation mark is generally considered poor writing, for it distracts the reader and reduces the mark's meaning. And, as F. Scott Fitzgerald once said, "An exclamation point is like laughing at your own jokes."
