skonopa Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 Why is it that we drive on parkways, but park on driveways? Why is it that when I need a cop, there is never any around, but if I go just 5 miles over the speed limit, they are on me like white on rice! Why do people buy BOSE when there are clearly better options out there? (Umm, I found out why , never mind. ) Just a thought. ------------------ Steven Konopa Fredericksburg, VA Denon AVR3802 (Receiver) RF-7 (Fronts) RC-7 (Center) RC-7 (Rear) RS-7 (A Surrounds) Infinity RS2000.5 (B Surrounds - recycled) REL Storm III (Subwoofer 1) Yamaha YST-SW40 (Subwoofer 2 - Recycled) JVC XV-S65GD (DVD) Sharp DX-200 (CD - ancient) RCA DWD490RE (DirecTV/Ultimate TV receiver) Sharp 32 inch (TV) This message has been edited by skonopa on 06-11-2002 at 11:12 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Garrison Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 The biggest little list I could come up with... Common two word oxymorons... act naturally Advanced BASIC almost exactly alone together calm wind clearly ambiguous clearly confused clearly misunderstood constant variable deafening silence deliberately thoughtless exact estimate federal budget found missing genuine imitation initial conclusion instant classic larger half literal interpretation Microsoft Works military intelligence modern history most unique only choice original copies paid volunteer and then there's common phrases, like: "Hi. I'm from the government, and I'm here to help you." Im not going to say, I told you so. "It isnt an optical illusion. It just looks like one." "May I ask a question?" This page intentionally left blank. And, let's finish with the Rules of Writing by William Safire: Do not put statements in the negative form. And dont start sentences with a conjunction. If you reread your work, you will find on rereading that a great deal of repetition can be avoided by rereading and editing. Never use a long word when a diminutive one will do. Unqualified superlatives are the worst of all. If any word is improper at the end of a sentence, a linking verb is. Avoid trendy locutions that sound flaky. Never, ever use repetitive redundancies. Also, avoid awkward or affected alliteration. Last, but not least, avoid cliches like the plague. ------------------ Music is art Audio is engineering Ray's Music System Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
