LYRICS:
Grammar can save the day, remember that
Just in case we ever plan to write and make contact
The title held by me: TGP
The parts of speech you know, you now feel free.
So don’t blink,
Be a master, scores improve
Learn the mechanics, bust a move
Write with purpose, avoid confusion
Guard against prepositional delusion
But yo just follow the rules, find bliss
It’s not all amiss,
No blame and no crazy hints.
Person place or thing,
a noun ain’t whack.
Cause you can always know where the adjectives are at.
Here come The Grammar Pros
The sentence defenders
Here come The Grammar Pros
Rules so easy to remember
The prepositions give you clues to now know
On the horizon, Of, by, over, fo’ sho’
Adverbs rule, can be confusing too
But then like BOOM you know what they can do.
Describe lots of verbs, adjectives, don’t curb
Conversation, explanation
Scary ISEEs turn to memories.
Ain’t no enemies
Can I please,
Do what I say that’s the way we learn it.
Ya know what I mean,
I say my crazy dance moves get wicked on ya.
Know your first, last and only line of defense,
Against the scariest tests of the universe.
So don’t fear it, cheer it.
Grammar’s the best and knows it, don’t jeer it.
We’re the fearless.
TGPs learnin’ up all the flows.
What’s that stand for?

Let me see ya just bounce it with me.
Just bounce with me.
Just bounce it with me. C’mon,

Let me see ya take a walk with me.

And make your neck work.
Now freeze.

“Buffy The Vampire Slayer” premiered on The WB almost 17 years ago and for those who may be skeptical of the Joss Whedon series, Clarke and special guest James “Jimmy O” Oster from JoBlo.com & Arrow In The Head say they only need three episodes to turn you into a mega fan.
Watch now to find out what they are!
To celebrate the recent St. Patrick’s Day holiday and welcome spring, those in need of a mint fix are buying the Shamrock Shake at McDonald’s. I’m going to sound horrible, because I’m not a fan of mint, pumpkin, or peppermint, but at least I’m not alone on the mint subject.
Once the weather start to cool down and the leaves change, customers flock to businesses offering pumpkin flavored items. Starbucks has a huge fan base behind their Pumpkin Spiced Latte. By huge fan base, I mean there are people’s heads that will explode unless they get their Pumpkin Spice Latte fix. Their coffee competitor Dunkin’ Donuts has a fan favorite of their own too in donut form, with their Pumpkin Pie Donuts.
During the winter holiday, fast food chains make it rain peppermint. Pinkberry will offers a pink shaded yogurt with peppermint flavor, while Chick-Fil-A carries a Peppermint Chocolate Chip Milkshake. During this season there is also another highly successful seasonal flavor from Starbucks, the Caramel Brulee. Fast food goers seem to enjoy McDonald’s unique holiday custard filled pie, because they keep bringing it back each year. Sonic joins the winter celebrations too, with their Red Velvet Cheesecake Blast. Sonic is just about to release some really bold flavors for the summer such as, Chocolate Jalapeno and Oreo Peanut Butter.
Since I’m such a hater on seasonal flavors I will tell you one I do like. Zaxby’s Birthday Cake Milkshake used to only come out for a couple months each year, but now its a daily item!

Last week I was going about my business, waiting for the valet to bring out my car after a meeting at my agent’s office when all of a sudden I felt a presence behind me. Naturally, I turned around only to reveal that the aforementioned presence was none other than the one and only TOBEY MAGUIRE! Now, at this moment I understand that many of you who are reading this are thinking, “Why is this girl freaking out about Tobey Maguire?”
I’ll tell you why I’m freaking out about Tobey Maguire…
Those of you who have been watching AMC VERSUS might remember that in one of the first episodes of the show, I had to defend Tobey Maguire over Andrew Garfield as “The Best Spider-Man Ever.” No easy task if you’ve seen “Spider-Man 3.” But I committed. I did my research, re-watched Sam Raimi’s “Spider-Man” franchise, and left no rock unturned in my preparation to prove to the whole Internet that Tobey Maguire was not only a solid Spider-Man, but a fantastic one.
To see the debate in it’s entirely, click here.
And after all that prep work formulating my argument and declaring to the whole World Wide Web that Tobey was indeed the greatest Spider-Man ever to crawl this earth I was finally face to face to Maguire himself.
What did I do? What did I say? To find out, watch this week’s installment of NERD OUT, below.

For a show that not a lot of people saw coming – for all intents and purposes to many it looked like just another crime drama – fans discovered outstanding performances (Hello McConaissance!), incredibly structured writing and a show that put director Cary Fukunaga on the map.
So, in honor of the show that blew everyone away, here’s our NERD OUT about “True Detective.”
In that moment, I realized that there was something greater at work. I didn’t call up the butterfly and say, “Hey Mr. Butterfly, I’m going to be standing on my stoop at 1:34pm, so if you could just fly by, that would be awesome.” Nope. It was serendipitous. And it got me thinking…
How many amazing animal and creature moments have I been missing in my life because I’ve been so busy or distracted by my to-do list? What is nature trying to tell me?
So, instead of asking nature (too easy), I Google’d “monarch butterfly symbolism.” Turns out the monarch butterfly is the symbol of positive change, transformation and new beginnings. I had just made a bunch of healthy changes in my life and was considering leaving a big corporate job for a creative career. Big changes were upon me, and the butterfly was a high-five from the Universe.
Thus began my spirit animal discovery process. Every time a cool creature crosses my path, I Google it. If I see a lizard, I know it’s about my shadow self (the areas of myself that I don’t want to show others). If I see a honey bee, I know it means prosperity and abundance. I love honeybees showing up. If a hummingbird comes by to say hello, I know that it’s telling me to focus on love and joy in my life. And even spiders mean something! When a spider appears, it means I’ve gotta get back to my writing.
To get even weirder with it all (if it wasn’t weird enough for you yet), I asked a life coach how to discover my main Spirit animal. I sat in meditation and allowed an environment to appear in my thoughts. I then kindly asked my Spirit animal to reveal itself. A stunning giraffe appeared within the bushes to say hello. Giraffes are creatures of love, gentleness and kindness, which is obviously perfect for me (maybe not everyone agrees with that, but that’s besides the point). It was really cool, for a nerd like me.
If you want to get even weirder, you can create your animal totem. Those are all of the main creatures that present themselves to you on a regular basis. As of now, mine consists of the Monarch butterfly, the lizard, hummingbird, giraffe, spider and the honey bee.
Your Spirit animals can appear at any time. Recently, when I was standing on a street corner, a homeless man yelled out “shark!” No one else around, so of course I received the message and researched the symbolism, and it described me really well. Signs are everywhere.
Everything means something if we let the mysteries of the Universe reveal themselves to us and we’re willing to listen. Life is way more fun that way.
Watch the video to find out what are Erin Darling and Clarke Wolfe’s spirit animals.
Now that we’ve shared our spirit animals with you, we’d love to know if you’ve had any cool or weird spirit animal experiences. Leave a comment below and let us know!
Until next time…
