OK, I admit it. I'm a word nerd. I spend a lot of time obsessing about language. That's not to say I'm a language expert. I'm more of a fan, really. I have several eBook readers, and even have bookshelves filled with, well, actual books. They don't come off the shelf very often, but I feel more comfortable having them around. I read word blogs like World Wide Words and listen to language podcasts like Grammar Girl and A Way With Words for entertainment.  

So you can imagine how thrilled I was to run across some actual entertainment centered around words. Word Crimes is the latest product from the mind of parody master Weird Al Yankovic. It pokes fun at all the ways we torture language and grammar on the web these days.  

Enjoy.

Hmmm, now I'm feeling really paranoid. I'd better go back this post for errors one more time. Nah, I'll just post it as is and wait for you to show me the error of my ways.
