Sex & Good Grammar





On his 74th birthday, a man got a gift certificate from his wife.
The certificate paid for a visit to a medicine man living on a nearby reservation
who was rumored to have a wonderful cure for erectile dysfunction.

After being persuaded, he drove to the reservation, handed his ticket
to the medicine man and wondered what he was in for.

The old man handed a potion to him, and with a grip on his shoulder, warned,
"This is a powerful medicine. You take only a teaspoonful and then say '1-2-3' "

When you do, you will become more manly than you have ever been in your life and
you can perform as long as you want."

The man was encouraged. As he walked away, he turned and asked, "How do I stop
the medicine from working?"


"Your partner must say '1-2-3-4,'" he responded,
"but when she does, the medicine will not work again until the next full moon."

He was very eager to see if it worked so he went home, showered, shaved,
took a spoonful of the medicine and then invited his wife to join him in the bedroom.
When she came in, he took off his clothes and said, "1-2-3!" Immediately, he was the manliest of men. His wife was excited and began throwing off her clothes and then she asked

"What was the 1-2-3 for?"

And that, boys and girls, is why we should never end our sentences with a preposition, because we
could end up with a dangling participle.

That was GREAT!! Reminds me of what Sir Winston Churchill was reported to have said when he was criticized for ending a sentence with a preposition. His answer was, " This is the sort of English up with which I will not put".

A well known (to me, anyway)photographer, Jerry Uelsmann, was giving a lecture at Harvard. When it came time for a lunch break he asked his student guide "where is a good place around here to eat at". The snobbish guide replied "This is Harvard...we don't end sentences with a preposition". So Jerry replied "OK, where is a good place around here to eat at, A_____e".

While two girls, one from Boston the other from Atlanta, were moving into their college rooms, the conversation turned to that evening's party. The Atlanta girl asked " who are you going with?" To which the Boston girl replied "we do not end questions with prepositions." To which the Atlanta girl replied "who are you going with, bitch."
