accident five years earlier.His police motorcycle was struck by a car and he was
then thrown into the path of oncoming truck. He had remained in a coma from the
time of the accident until succumbing to his injuries.Sergeant Douglas is
survived by his wife and 6-year-old son.
It's a play on "grammar police." It's where I work out theories and pedagogies of composition, rhetoric, and literacy.

Retraction
RE: My last Blog
Once again, Theo Epstein, you have proven that you are smarter than me. The Bay/ Manny trade has proven about even as far as actual performance, but the collateral effects have been shocking. The Red Sox are playing inspired baseball and Pedroia has picked up the slack big time, going eight for eight with two walks in the first two games against the evil empire. He is only slightly slackened since that run. I don't know that getting rid of Manny has had anything to do with the performance of the rest of the team, but whatever distraction he ma have cause has clearly gone with him.
I'm a man. When I'm wrong, I say I'm wrong.
