Holiday Safety

Given that there will be a lot of people doing a lot of driving this holiday season, I felt some caution was in order. Today’s post is a Public Service Announcement:

Adverb-Man says:
Please Drive Safe

No, I am not cautioning you about your driving. I am cautioning you to make sure that you add -ly to words that modify verbs. Beware the poorly-written signs and announcements this Christmastime.

I don’t want to drive a safe – I want to drive my car.

And I want to do it safely.

Now the LORD was with Judah, and they took possession of the hill country; but they could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley because they had iron chariots.
