In other RANDOM news!!

While grocery shopping at Market Street in Allen today, I picked up a copy of Life&Style Weekly. The main reason is because the cover showed Khloe Kardashian lookin' super lean! In some of the print towards the end of the article it stated that she uses something called the Quick Trim Isocleanse....Just FYI. :)

-- Guilty Pleasure Alert -- I like to watch Keeping up with the Kardasians (and am sure I will like to watch Khloe and Kourtney take Miami when that airs - or has it already?). <-- random alert, this always annoys me....So, when you use parenthesis which I love (and I love ellipses too, probably because they are my excuse at randomness..haha) do you put the punctuation before or after?

Let's see.... gonna google it -- oh and by the way, I will google what you call it when a brand takes on a generic meaning and is used universally, i.e., Kleenex, Band-aid, -- google - haha.

brb. (Insert pause pretending to wait while I google here)

Okay, so the most interesting thought won the spot of primary google search...so it is called genericized trademark. And now we know... essentially, when your product is super well known, you run the risk of losing its trademark. :) For more on this Favor de hacer clic aqui: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genericized_trademark
That's Spanish for click here. And hmm..did you realize I taught you a little Spanish along the way? Yay!

Okay on to the next search but before we do that, know that I think soon, Google (unless they will do what I think and be super duper smart and prevent it from happening, might be considered uber well-known resulting in it becoming a genericized trademark). For instance, "Let me google that". You know you say it already don't ya!

Google Search number 2: Punctuation-ation - hey hey that's my word!
Hmm... okay I don't feel like doing a bajillion searches on grammar etiquette so the few examples that I noticed appear to have the punctuation enclosed sometimes and not in others...Let's just say that I will ensure that my documents are correct should they be going to upper management, for you guys, you get the real deal. Me just bloggin'!

Okay...I'm sleepy tired. That's different from sleepy and tired btw - It is like so sleepy you are tired or so tired you are sleepy!! hasta later tator.

keeping it real...lol

BUT BEFORE I GO...I googled the definition of ellipsis and guess what??? I <3>Ellipsis Bazan - check out the wikipedia definition: Ellipsis (plural ellipses; from the Greek: ἔλλειψις, élleipsis, "omission") is a mark or series of marks that usually indicate an intentional omission of a word or a phrase from the original text. An ellipsis can also be used to indicate a pause in speech, an unfinished thought or, at the end of a sentence, a trailing off into silence (aposiopesis).
