Hi, David.

I was struck by the grammar in this line:

   The deers were scared

So I asked the internet Why isn't the plural of deer deers? and it said:

(The Internet also says "deers" is grammatically correct, so it must be true!)

Glad Christmas was saved again! Thanks Walmart and Monster Trucks!

And Tater Tots! Or David Snyder? I've spent many a sleepless night wondering. laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
