Commercials before the trailers have been irritating the hell out of me for years, now. When I went to see The Guru in Orange a few weeks ago, the AMC theater I was at showed commercials, but they started them before the posted start time, so that by the "official" time the movie started, you were at the trailers.

]]> St. Sigmund, Patron of the Verbal Slip http://www.rjray.org/politics/15.html At today's news conference with Rumsfeld, Air Force Gen. Richard Myers started out saying that the U.S. efforts were "proceeding unabetted", then quickly caught himself and corrected to to, "proceeding unabated".

The difference between abet and abate is not at all subtle.
