p.s. I try to specialize in the kind of humor that makes a person
laugh in spite of themselves, with the unfortunate side effect
that I'm usually in big trouble if they don't laugh.

to make it easier for others to read what they have written.
In other words, it is a courtesy.

the style and spelling right.
