LOL, I have to admit I think I'm guilty of all of them. I'm sure I made a comment or two similar to #14.
On another note... I did try the tip you gave me to unlock my email. I couldn't do what you described. None of my stuff looks like your post. I think they updated blogger since. Since I can't figure out how to fix it, if you ever did need to email me it's firstgradehugsandhighfives@gmail.com
