So I was looking up Point Reyes California because there are a lot of shipwrecks there and I found this in a Wiki article thereon:
"Continuing as the region's supply and service center, it is a popular destination rich with charming shops, fine restaurants, extraordinary butter-filled pastures at the Bovine Bakery, and an annual music festival."
Indeed, a pasture full of butter would be extraordinary.
So I'm still POed this morning.
No, I'm not a grammar nazi, I rarely correct anyone unless asked except I occasionally send a PM if an error wreck's the meaning of a sentence and I will often bend grammar for the sake of readability, and my fingers often have to ketchup with my brain and I use there for they're and their but I usually catch stuff like that on a word-by-word 60 word per minute re-read, and maybe the author really meant grass-filled pastries instead of butter-filled pastures for some arcane reason, and I reelize how hard it is to text so a lot of abbr's and cutesy word shortations are needed but gee whiz and I know this is an incomplete run on sentence but.
So I"m still p|s'sed off this AM.

" extraordinary butter-filled pastures at the Bovine Bakery..."
I missed the The Summer of Love (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qI-Ji4gtBPM) in 1967 but when I was 15 going on 16 a year later I hitchhiked from bugtussle Oklahoma to San Francisco. I am pretty sure I not only saw a butter-filled pasture but many other wondrous things that are now secreted deep in the recesses of my mind. Hopefully they will come poring out as I age and I can regale the grandkids with stories of hippies, free love and mind expansion. :)

Ah, I found the problem.
I was there a few years ago. Kind of a laid back hippy sort of place. Olema is dead until after dark because the whole town takes wine and goes out to the point to watch the sun set.

Ahhhh... Loosened up mammaries with butter and pasties. :O And some "grass". Set for the weekend!

So you use ketchup on your keyboard? Is this some sort of lubricant to keep the keys from sticking? You would think after being exposed to the air it would make it worse.
