I watch it.

I'm a sucker for those shows where they fabricate vehicles. Unique Whips is different in the sense that they customize rather than fabricate (for the most part). You have to give a guy credit for creating a lucrative business which is based on installing fancy stereos and wheel rims.

I must say, however, that I do question the taste of a lot of the modifications. Of course, the majority of customers seem to be young millionaire athletes and rap stars. I guess they have a different sense of style than a middle aged white guy :). But every custom job seems to begin with ridiculous wheel rims...."Yeah, we'll put some 22" chrome rims on for you". Remember they did that Bentley with such enormous wheel rims that they could hardly mount the tires? And, when they got the tires on there was about 1.5" of sidewall. It was $350,000 car fit for a pimp.

Still, it's an interesting show and the characters and relationships are certainly different.

Okay, I've deduced Unique whips is a show of some kind, though why they wouldn't capitalize the second word is beyond me. As is why someone who's 21 can't type out complete words.

Anyway, no, never heard of the show.

Aw come one - what does this sentence even mean? Please tell me you don't talk like this in real life! "Thunks?" I still can't figure out what Sharlow crew means. Is "get over it" a separate thought or part of the same sentence? Punctuation, man!

Methinks text messaging has destroyed our youth's ability to write coherantly. I shudder to think what a teacher has to read through on a student's report! :)

Actualy I originaly said "thunks" it was an honest typo but I left it in keeping with the spirit of the thread.

^ I have 3 cousins and a brother who are english teachers, 2 other cousins who are college professors, and a degree of my own. None of us can stand the way some people "communicate" on the internet or text-messenging shorthand. The common opinion when reading reports is, if it doesn't make sense when pronounced out loud, it doesn't count towards the final grading of the report. After a few incompletes on important assignments, things clear up real fast. It's not that most people can't frame a decent thought or sentence, it's that they can't be bothered. I don't work in education, but at work, if I can't make out what a written memo is trying to say, that person is usually looking for a different position quickly.

So, getting back to the original subject of this thread, I take it "Unique whips" (is that how it's capitalized?) is a car-makeover TV show that, for some reason, I don't get on cable here in SoCal. Sounds pretty much like a clone of "Pimp My Ride," where they take someone's old beater of a car and tart it up with garish paint, flashy wheels and accessories, and "imaginative" interior furnishings.

But what does that have to do with whips?

How in the WORLD is the current state of Language skills education and the insidious growth of text messaging shorthand the fault of the president? Or ANY president for that matter?

When referring to The President of the United States of America, proper puncutation and grammar calls for you to use a capital "p" at all times, even when using only "President" and not his full name or title, John. ;)

Especially since you can't whip a car. Well, you can, but it won't get you the results you generally hope for as when you whip a beast of burden. You can whip a horse, tho. :)

So it's a signature?

You should do a couple of carriage returns and put it below the rest of the message, like, y'know, a signature. Otherwise it looks like a phrase just hanging there at the end of the paragraph. It would also help understanding if you said "The Sherlow Crew." I wasn't the only one who couldn't figure out what it meant.
