POST GREEN BLUES

LITTLE ANNOYANCES

Identify the errors in the following:

"Laprise, 54, was doing it behind his boss and longtime friend's back, court was told."
Sarah Sacheli, "Transactions faked, court told", The Windsor Star, Tuesday, March 18, 2008.

"White had already booked Tuesday off of work in anticipation of the hangover."
Barbara Simpson, "Revellers are Irish for a day", THe Windsor Star, Tuesday, March 18, 2008.


A CHALLENGE

Count the number of incomplete sentences in today's Windsor Star editorial, "The border".


TODAY'S WORD

The word for today is "unctuous".
Define "unctious" and use it in a sentence.
