Lew: I got a laugh myself. Reading some of the stuff on this message
series reminded me of the expression: "Pole Vaulting Over Mouse Turds".

"Took" it to class.
Jesus Christ, is this a metalworking hobby forum, or the freaking
American Heritage Book of English Usage? Did everybody get a new grammar
book for Christmas?
Besides, there's nothing at all wrong with "brought," past tense of
"bring," which works perfectly well in that sentence. It's true that I
don't know if it was a "him," but we'll assume the epicene use of "him,"
which is perfectly legitimate in English, so quit yer gripin'. d8-)

I laughed for 5 min after reading that. :-)

No, mouse turds is what someone *else* does for a living. This is what I do
for a living. And it's not a bad living.
