The Runs......

The "Run on Sentence", dreaded is the name. I have been accused of exposing those who are unlucky enough to stumble across my blog to these beasts. I don't feel as if I am the worst offender, but I certainly do not deny it. If any of you readers are still out there from the early days of my blogging you surely know what i'm talking about. Mediocre writing by a mediocre English student. In an attempt to increase my command of the written word I have enrolled myself into a Community College of Allegheny Campus English class. I promise to the family, friends and miscellaneous readers that, I will do better for your sake. 

I have some feelings about the "Run On" and how it can be over exaggerated in its severity. Does it really hurt to ramble on in blog form? No. What about in verbal communication? I answer this with, No as well. When you speak to someone face to face, it is often difficult to tell when a sentence comes to an end or is it just a pause. This holds true for almost everyone I speak with, southerner, northener all have different dialects and speeds of the spoken word. If we are ever speaking and I "rudly interrupt you" it isn't out of spite or even meant to be rude, it is simply because you were pausing for to long or just rambling.

My feelings really don't go deeper than this, however I feel as if you know where I stand on the matter.
