[hfojvt]

23. ha, I was just thinking of you

it is tempting for me to buy hearts.

Then I was wondering. Well, who would I give them to?

And I thought, maybe Seabeyond, she takes a lot of flack on this board.

But now that looks like it would be coals to Newcastle. When I give away hearts, because I like lots of people here. I look for people who have less than three hearts, or even zero hearts, and try to add to their total.

Not a sympathy heart like I am saying "this poor schlemiel doesn't have any hearts, so even though I don't even know them I will give them one." But more on the order of "hey, I like this person and they should have more hearts".

I have even gone spelunking for people like Mythsaje, TimeForChange, NewYawker99 who had not been around for a while and gave them a heart. Maybe they will get an email saying "somebody gave you a heart" and check back in, or at least know "somebody on DU is still thinking about you."

Even now I wonder, even though he has been rude to me more than once, how many hearts H2Oman has.

[Agschmid]

25. Here is one for you!

[hfojvt]

27. I note just for the record

that H2Oman has none.



But I am somewhat chagrined. Do I know you?

I always remember the line from "Hang 'em high"

"When you hang a man, you ought to remember what he looks like."

(edit: By which I mean that there are some here I have gone a round or two with)

Oh, and, thank you for the heart.

[Agschmid]

28. Nope you don't.

But if you are from VT I am sure we have actually run into each other before... There are only so many people there

[hfojvt]

37. unfortunately I am not from Vermont

In fact, I cannot even remember visiting it, although I remember going to Acadia national park and dad tells me that he refused to drive through Quebec. So I must have passed through.

the VT in my Username actually stands for US.

Which may be a clue to the rest of the name

But when I made up the name, I swear I was thinking of Wile E. Coyote. Who may have a card with that word on it, but demonstrates over and over again that it is not true.

[seabeyond]

56. hugzzzz, so hear you

like to give them to the few, yes. and you....

[ProSense]

24. Thanks.

[BlueCaliDem]

40. ProSense - always my favorite!

230. I just wanted to say thank-you to the person who gave me the V-day heart!

That was such a super nice thing to do

[tblue37]

231. I had already said thanks to the unknown person or person who had given me two unexpected hearts

when some nice person, perhaps the same one or ones, perhaps (probably?) a different one, sneaked up and gave me the third one.

So now I want to say thanks again to whoever** it was who gave me my third heart.

**As a "gift" to my fellow DUers, I am going to slip on my grammar guru hat and answer a question that probably troubles many of you from time to time.

A clause is a "stronger" grammatical structure than a phrase. Therefore, when a clause and a phrase compete to determine the case of a pronoun, the clause wins. That is why "whoever" is in the nominative (subject) case in ". . . to whoever gave me the third one" in my sentence above. The clause wants a subject ("whoever gave&quot , while the prepositional phrase wants an object.

In a wordier and more roundabout version of the sentence, the nominative case would still be called for:

. . . to whoever it was who gave . . .

That is because the "whoever" in that version is acting as the subject complement of the subject ("it was whoever&quot , and subject complement pronouns are also in the nominative case.

Not trying to be a grammar Nazi here, but I know that many people do worry about such things but don't know where to go for quick, easy to understand answers.

People are often insecure about whether their grammar is correct, because there really are a lot of nasty grammar Nazis out there, and they jump at the chance to publicly hector others. If you ever need a grammar or usage question answered, my Grammar and Usage for the Non-Expert site consists of targeted articles. I don't try to cover every aspect of grammar and usage in my articles--just the ones that give a lot of people, including otherwise good writers, trouble:

[font color = "red"]***BTW, I have ads on my sites, and there's an ad on my pages that registers as "malware" for some protective software programs because apparently it tracks users. (It registers that way on my program, too.) I am going to remove it, but I have many hundreds of pages on my 10 public websites, and I never have much time during the semester, so I can only modify a few pages at each sitting..

The WhiteSmoke ad is the problematic one. Just do not click on it and you will be fine.
