Please explain the policy as there should be nothing wrong with an opinion....you have altered the tone of the message that I wanted to get out!!!!!!! I don't mind grammar changes but when parts of an article are completely removed that's censorship!!!!!!! Please explanin this "policy"!!!!!!!

No, I'm not offended, don't worry, I'm not a jerk like that. So, the "humor" tag alongside the article doesn't do the trick?

I know it's a small thing to add, but I am curious.

Also, just so you know, the "Come To Think of it" is my tagline - I use it in every article headline and end every article with it. No problem, I added it back.

Since when? I've written lots of humor and no editor ever told me that or changed anything. The tag of "humor" should suffice.

Why were the quotes removed? And what's wrong with slain or murdered? They seem like synonyms to me?

It was as large a statement as I could make.

Gosh, Andrew, I do that with every article. I guess that talking about the things Georges loves was not cohesive.

Andrew, thanks for the complement, man. I'm happy I could amuse you. But if you could help me find an em-dash anywhere in the free world, I'd be happy to use it.

Signed,
