"The wise man knoweth when to speak, and when to shutteth [sic] up. "
~The Analects of Father Steve (2006)
I am appalled at this egregious grammatical error from the pen of a self-proclaimed guardian of the purity of the language.
Actually, dear Fong, our beloved padre more than likely penned not this humorous proverb. Analects are merely collections of snippets of what other sages have written. Our dear padre has revealed to us yet another of his many talents -- he reporteth the news, not maketh it. (so to speak.)
