In Response to Mac_the_Knife (#19767):
Several things.
1: Please stop shouting. Even if some of us are deaf, it does not actually affect our ability to read words on a computer screen.
2: You only need to put one punctuation mark indicating the completion of a statement after any given sentence. (This technically applies to your other posts.) Likewise, please learn where you should place a comma - separating clauses - and where you need a semicolon, comma+conjunction, or full stop - separating statements. Follow this up by learning that you need to capitalize the first letter of each sentence, and top it off by learning the proper use for an ellipsis. Ta-da. Punctuation 101, which should have been covered in your English classes since approximately 3rd grade.
3: Spelling! Your computer surely has a spell-check function. 'Oversite' does not exist; 'oversight' might be the word you're looking for.
4: Never, ever do that to a man's beer. Especially a man like Jon, or possibly Phillip. Besides, he was drinking! What better excuse is there for a late comic than drinking?
5: Your login is terribly unoriginal. Also, it is misspelt. Assuming you mean to reference the character from Threepenny Opera, you would be looking for
Mack the Knife. Not that originality is necessarily mandatory, but that's low even by online login standards.
That said, welcome to the Goats forums.
