Great title. Caught my eye as soon as I opened the mail. I can think of only a couple of things worse than being pedantic. " droll, and dead."

You sir are a most intelligent man, hell, half the words I had to look up herein, but learned me some new ones...I especially enjoyed scratching each others back, though I wouldn't touch yours with the proverbial 10 foot pole, LOL, Ed
Tom, you are a hoot! Not only does my brain falter from these ponderings, but my tongue got twisted, to boot! Will have to return when I'm healed, and my back stops itching...:o)

I can dig it, and all thirteen are worth pondering. But these days, I seem to be captivated the most by the simple things. So, I'm now pondering this one:
If the Dog Hadn’t Stopped to Take a Dump -
Would he Have Caught the Rabbit?
I have five dogs, and from my experience I can tell you that whether they have stopped to dump or not, none of them have caught a single rabbit yet. And I don't count the time a rabbit got stuck in a fence while they were in hot pursuit. Luckily, I was nearby so I quickly 'unstuck' it, and they never caught that one either!
This programmed, self-paced lesson focuses exclusively on the use of postpostions (ga and (w)o) with grammatical objects in the Japanese language without wavering or getting off track in the labyrinth of Japanese syntax and other grammatical issues.
